Dear Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD,
In message 20081105173728.GB5323@game.jcrosoft.org you wrote:
The attribute ".weak" works only if the file where is the weak function is not in a library.
This method of build will not generate a library evenif it's still called libat91.a, it will generate a pre-built object.
Then we probably should avoid a .a suffix ?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

"IBM uses what I like to call the 'hole-in-the-ground technique' to
destroy the competition..... IBM digs a big HOLE in the ground and
covers it with leaves. It then puts a big POT OF GOLD nearby. Then it
gives the call, 'Hey, look at all this gold, get over here fast.' As
soon as the competitor approaches the pot, he falls into the pit"
