A while back this thread mentioned Borland's 'Smart Linking' in one of its Pascal compilers, but not the current (at the time) C compiler). As this process only makes sense to minimize program size, therefore decreasing load time, and probably run time, as more RAM is available, it this process being used by today's current compilers?
I don't know, but considering how few applications are statically-linked these days, is there really a big payoff? It was different when the target was a DOS program, since those usually had to carry all their libs along with them. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
