   4       If you only built a static library (libstdc++.a), or if you
   5       specified static linking, you don't have to worry about this.
   6       But if you built a shared library (libstdc++.so) and linked
   7       against it, then you will need to find that library when you run
   8       the executable.
   9     </p><p>
  10       Methods vary for different platforms and different styles, but
  11       the usual ones are printed to the screen during installation.
  12       They include:
  13     </p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>
  14           At runtime set LD_LIBRARY_PATH in your environment
  15           correctly, so that the shared library for libstdc++ can be
  16           found and loaded.  Be certain that you understand all of the
  17           other implications and behavior of LD_LIBRARY_PATH first
  18           (few people do, and they get into trouble).
  19         </p></li><li><p>
  20           Compile the path to find the library at runtime into the
  21           program.  This can be done by passing certain options to
  22           g++, which will in turn pass them on to the linker.  The
  23           exact format of the options is dependent on which linker you
  24           use:
  25         </p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="circle"><li><p>
  26               GNU ld (default on Linux):<code class="literal">-Wl,--rpath,<code class="filename">destdir</code>/lib</code>
  27             </p></li><li><p>
  28               IRIX ld:<code class="literal">
  29               -Wl,-rpath,<code class="filename">destdir</code>/lib</code>
  30             </p></li><li><p>
  31           Solaris ld:<code class="literal">-Wl,-R<code class="filename">destdir</code>/lib</code>
  32           </p></li><li><p>
  33               More...?  Let us know!
  34             </p></li></ul></div></li></ul></div><p>
  35       Use the <span class="command"><strong>ldd</strong></span> utility to show which library the
  36       system thinks it will get at runtime.
  37     </p><p>
  38       A libstdc++.la file is also installed, for use with Libtool.  If
  39       you use Libtool to create your executables, these details are
  40       taken care of for you.
