Static object initialization issue..

[vjn]

Hi Everybody,
I have the following class structure. When compiled with arm compiler the code works fine but when I try to run the same in GCC4.1.2 i am getting segment fault. On analysis I found that the constructor of B is called first.. ie. even before calling the constructor for the static object named 'trouble1' in the below code.

---------A.hpp-------------------------
class A;
class A
{
public :
int val;
std::string name;
A(int i, string str);
A(A a);
static const A trouble1;
int val();
std::string getName();
-----
----
}

---------A.cpp----------------------------

const A A::trouble1(1,"str1")

int val(){return val;}
std::string A::getName{return name;}

A(int i, string str ) : val(i), name(str){}

A(A a): val(a.val()), name(a.getName()){}

-----------B.hpp-------------

#include "A.hpp"

class B : public A
{
public :
B() ;
---
----
}

-------------B.cpp-----------

B::B():A(trouble1){}


Both this files are in a single libraray module. While loading the library my application crashes.

I feel this is the compiler dependent behaviour. Is there any way to make it running with GCC4.1.2 and g++4.1.2.

Any help or suggestion is appreciated..

thanks
vjn
