Really? Here is a testcase. Do you think goo's constructor
will be called before another constructor in another file
with priority 1005?
[...@gnu-6 pr46770-2]$ cat foo.C
class Two {
private:
int i, j, k;
public:
static int count;
Two( int ii, int jj ) { i = ii; j = jj; k = count++; };
Two( void ) { i = 0; j = 0; k = count++; };
int eye( void ) { return i; };
int jay( void ) { return j; };
int kay( void ) { return k; };
};
extern Two foo;
extern Two goo;
Two foo __attribute__((init_priority(65530))) ( 5, 6 );
Two goo __attribute__((init_priority(65535))) = Two( 7, 8 );
