cxxlib

Tells the compiler to link using the C++ run-time libraries and header files provided by Intel or gcc, depending on the installed version of gcc.

Architectures

IA-32, Intel® EM64T, Intel® Itanium® architecture

Syntax

Linux and Mac OS:	-cxxlib[-mode]
Windows:	None

Arguments

mode	Specifies which C++ run-time libraries to use. Possible values are:
	gcc[=dir]	Tells the compiler to link using the C++ run-time libraries and header files provided by gcc. dir is an optional top-level location for the gcc binaries and libraries.
	icc	Tells the compiler to link using the C++ run-time libraries and header files provided by Intel. -cxxlib-icc is only available on IA-32 and Itanium®-based Linux systems.

Default

-cxxlib-gcc or -cxxlib-icc	On Linux* systems, if you are using gcc version 3.2 or newer, the compiler uses the run-time libraries and headers provided by gcc. If you are using a gcc version less than 3.2. the compiler uses the run-time libraries and headers provided by Intel.
-cxxlib-gcc	On Mac OS* systems, the compiler uses the run-time libraries and headers provided by gcc.

Description

This option tells the compiler to link using the C++ run-time libraries and header files provided by Intel or gcc, depending on the installed version of gcc.

If you specify the option with no mode, the compiler uses the default C++ libraries.

Note

For full interoperability with gcc, use -cxxlib-gcc. Do not use the -cxxlib-gcc option if your version of gcc is older than 3.2.

Caution

All object binaries used in a single link must be compiled with the same mode value, whether invoked explicitly or by default.

Alternate Options

None
