It works on all the other ones (HP, Linux, SUN, SGI) but fails to run on Aix with xlc compiler version 5.0. The problem is that the default constructors of my global objects are not called on this platform. So I declared my global object as SymbolTable globalSymTab ; and SymbolTable.cpp has SymbolTable::SymbolTable () : m_curId (0), m_htab (hTabSize), m_offStr (0), m_type (0) { } while SymbolTable.hpp has class SymbolTable { public: SymbolTable (); ... } But the constructor SymbolTable::SymbolTable () is never called. Could anyone give me some suggestions on this problem? Thanks in advance, Chris Back to top Thomas Tutone Guest Posted: Mon Nov 28, 2005 11:39 pm    Post subject: Re: problem using C++ classes with AIX xlc Version 5.0 ChrisG wrote: Quote: Hi, I am building an executable on a bunch of UNIX platforms.

Given that you are using global variables and your code works on some platforms but not others, It is possible that you are falling victim to the static initialization order fiasco - in which case, you will find the following FAQ entries helpful: http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/ctors.html#faq-10.12 Best regards, Tom Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         C++Talk.NET Forum Index -> C++ language (comp.lang.c++) All times are GMT Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum C/C++----------------C LanguageC Language (Moderated)C++ Language (Moderated)C++ language (comp.lang.c++)C++ language, library and standards Non-English C/C++ Newsgroups----------------C++ (German)C++ (French)  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2006 phpBB Group SEO toolkit © 2004-2006 webmedic.
