 Posted: Mon Oct 25, 2004 5:07 pm Post subject: Large Executables with C++ |
 |
|
I am getting pretty large executables using the c++ compilers. For a 13kb code the executables is 100Mb.
For testing i compiled the Hello world program here are the results
Source code : 82 bytes
GNU C++ Executable : 13935 bytes
pgCC Executable : 757699 bytes
Any suggestions why this might be happening? is it normal ?
It is a linux Redhat 7.3 system.
Hello World Code
| Code: |
#include <iostream.h>
int main()
{
cout << "Hello World!\n";
return 0;
}

This is an unfortunate side effect of the implementation of the STL and is a known issue. We are in the process of revising how our STL is done so this should get better in future releases.
