I got some question about symbols in libraries ...
In libraries, there is public symbols and "not public" symbols
(private, static)... In C when we use the "static" keyword on the
declaration of a function, the function is not public in the library.
1- When I use a class, all is symbols are put in the public section of
the library. How can I change that. The keyword "private" in a class
is only for the langage or does it change (like "static") something in
libs ? Even in object file ?
2- Even symbols which are not "static" have there decorated name in
the library. (I use bindump to check that). How can I avoid that for
the private functions of my lib ?
What COFF is use for then ?
3- The keyword "static" is used to keep the use of something in the
file scope. If my lib is composed from many object file, how can I
"hide" private functions ?
Does somebody know how I can get a good documentation about library
files ?
Thanks

The C++ language does not specify how symbols in libraries should work.
In libraries, there is public symbols and "not public" symbols
(private, static)... In C when we use the "static" keyword on the
declaration of a function, the function is not public in the library.
1- When I use a class, all is symbols are put in the public section of

Only for the language I guess. Consider a class split across two libraries.
If the private symbols where hidden somehow, how would a member function in
one library call a member function in the other.
2- Even symbols which are not "static" have there decorated name in
the library. (I use bindump to check that). How can I avoid that for
the private functions of my lib ?
This is not a language issue, consult your compiler docs.
What COFF is use for then ?
What is COFF, an object file format I think? Off topic on comp.lang.c++
anyway.
3- The keyword "static" is used to keep the use of something in the
file scope. If my lib is composed from many object file, how can I
"hide" private functions ?
Again the C++ language says nothing about symbols in libraries. Look to your
platform for a solution, it may not exist.
Does somebody know how I can get a good documentation about library
files ?
Try google.
Thanks

Recently I tried the following:
I created two libraries lib1.a and lib2.a. Both contain the object a.o which
instantiates a class from b1.o (or b2.o respectively), where b1.o and b2.o
have the same interface (header) and thus the symbol names are identical.
In order to be able to link lib1.a and lib2.a with main.cpp I tried to
localize the duplicated symbols (with GNU objcopy) and partially linked a.o
with b1.o and a.o with b2.o. This...

this fails, on link error to std::list.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
