Interactions

To link the C++ default libraries statically, use the –staticlib option.

The -Bstatic and -Bdynamic options affect the linking of the libraries that are provided by default. To ensure that the default libraries are linked dynamically, the last use of –B should be –Bdynamic.

In a 64-bit environment, many system libraries are available only as shared dynamic libraries. These include libm.so and libc.so (libm.a and libc.a are not provided). As a result, -Bstatic and -dn may cause linking errors in 64-bit Solaris operating systems. Applications must link with the dynamic libraries in these cases.
