libpthread.a for itanium

eran_b — Thu, 21 Jun 2007 07:29:35 GMT

Hi,
I have an application that must be compiled statically with libpthread.
For PA-RISC, I could use libpthread.a without issues. However, for some reason, I cannot find libpthread.a on my ia64 box.
Does anyone know where it is?

Thanks,
Eran.

Why do you need to compile with archive libs?

You are out of luck. Since system archive libs are evil, libc.a, libpthread.a and libunwind.a have all been removed.

You should just take the default shared libs.

Hi,
I have an application that must be loaded BEFORE /usr is mounted and therefore all the "dlls" aren't available yet.
I did notice though that ct0.o is still available.

thank,
eran

ISVs doing that must talk with DSPP.

Without libc.a, that is useless.
