Re: Why dependent on a specific C runtime version?

[Lin George]

Thanks Aditya!

Is it because I used one version of libc to compile/link it and when I run it 
on another machine, the machine is using another version of glic as default 
runtime support?


regards,
George

I am not sure why this question is addressed to GNU Make mailing list
but nevertheless, the shared objects/dlls will always depend on the
specific version of glibc.
You can not have it 100% portable.
