No. All dynamic references to a function named print will resolve to one copy. If you linked the application with -rdynamic, it would be that copy. You can get the results you expect by using a linker script, or GCC's __attribute__((hidden)) or -fvisibility=hidden. This is a difference between ELF linkage and Windows-style DLL linkage. -- Daniel Jacobowitz CodeSourcery _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
