binary libary compatibility

[Gregory Hosler <gregory hosler eno ericsson se>]

Hi all,

I have a large piece of code, that up to now I have been developing on RH 5.2

I am looking at porting that code to RH 7.0

The issues with the newer compiler being more strict, I can handle. My biggest
concern I have is one of our 3rd party dependencies. We have several 3rd party
dependencies, which are in the form of ".o" or ".a" files, which are glibc 2.0
based.

When I recompile my app on RH 7.0 (which is glibc 2.1 based), will I have a
problem mixing glibc2.0 ".o" or ".a" files with my glibc2.1 .[oa] files ?

thx, and rgds,

-Greg
