--- Comment #7 from hoenle2...@kayser-threde.com 2011-10-17 08:17:21 UTC --- @Jonathan: You ask "was gcc built with a non-default value for --enable-clocale ?". I don't think so. We perform cross development on Windows with MinGW as supported out-of-the-box by the RTEMS operating system distribution. With that distribution the cross compilation tools come already pre-compiled. Maybe the following gcc output helps: $ sparc-rtems-gcc -v Reading specs from c:/opt/rtems-4.8-mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/sparc-rtems/4.2.4/specs Target: sparc-rtems Configured with: ../gcc-4.2.4/configure --target=sparc-rtems --host i686-mingw32 --build i486-slackware-linux --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld --with-newlib --verbose --enable-threads --enable-languages=c,c++ --disable-nls --prefix=/opt/rtems-4.8-mingw --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs --with-system-zlib --disable-libstdcxx-pch --disable-win32-registry --without-included-gettext Thread model: rtems gcc version 4.2.4 ----------------- @Paolo: We never access a std::stringstream object from different threads but always from a single thread. When we share objects between threads, we protect them by a pthread mutex. I will perform a test with a new GCC/libstdc++ probably mid November. In case the problem persists I will try to set up a short, self contained reproducer. ----------------- Regards Alfred
