Re: [ECOS] _impure_ptr ??

[Bob Koninckx <bob dot koninckx at mech dot kuleuven dot ac dot be>]

Gary,

Just a small update on the situation.

If i provide my own definition 

extern "C" void
__cxa_pure_virtual(void) {}

and make sure the linker finds this one _before_ the stuff in libsupc++,
everything links ok. I am now going to debug the application and see if
everything still works as it should.

If this is all that needs to be done, that's fine with me. I suppose
more advanced recovery than the default message to stderr (apparently
that's what they do in newlib) could be necessary anyway.

Some further investigation showed that this __impure_ptr comes from
newlib for sure. Apparently, a 'write' function from newlib instead of
ecos libc gets called by __cxa_pure_virtual, which makes me cautious
about the compiler I build. Any idea how I can verify that my tools got
indeed build correctly ?

Bob
