Squashed commit of the following: libs/libxx: Fix some confusing in naming. If the directory is called libxx, then the library must be libxx.a (unless perhaps LIBCXX is selected). libs/: Fix paths in moved library directories. libs: Brute force move of libc, libnx, and libxx to libs. Cannot yet build it in that configuration.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
This directory contains a fragmentary C++ library that will allow to build
|
|
only the simplest of C++ applications. In the deeply embedded world, that
|
|
is probably all that is necessary. If you have a need for more extensive
|
|
C++ support, the following libraries are recommended:
|
|
|
|
- libstdc++ (part of GCC)
|
|
- STLport http://www.stlport.org/
|
|
- uClibc++ http://cxx.uclibc.org/
|
|
- uSTL http://ustl.sourceforge.net/
|
|
|
|
There is a version of uClibc++ that has been customized for use with NuttX.
|
|
That version that can be found in the NuttX uClibc++ GIT repository. Refer
|
|
to the top-level uClibc++ README.txt file for installation instructions.
|
|
|
|
At present, only the following are supported here:
|
|
|
|
- void *operator new(std::size_t nbytes);
|
|
- void operator delete(void* ptr);
|
|
- void operator delete[](void *ptr);
|
|
- void __cxa_pure_virtual(void);
|
|
- int __aeabi_atexit(void* object, void (*destroyer)(void*), void *dso_handle);
|
|
- int __cxa_atexit(__cxa_exitfunc_t func, FAR void *arg, FAR void *dso_handle);
|

operator new
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
This operator should take a type of size_t. But size_t has an unknown underlying
|
|
type. In the nuttx sys/types.h header file, size_t is typed as uint32_t
|
|
(which is determined by architecture-specific logic). But the C++
|
|
compiler may believe that size_t is of a different type resulting in
|
|
compilation errors in the operator. Using the underlying integer type
|
|
instead of size_t seems to resolve the compilation issues. Need to
|
|
REVISIT this.
|
|
|
|
Once some C++ compilers, this will cause an error:
|
|
|
|
Problem: "'operator new' takes size_t ('...') as first parameter"
|
|
Workaround: Add -fpermissive to the compilation flags
