Thanks, that is a much better solution. And I don't know offhand of any
portability problems in overriding the library at link time.
Microsoft's compiler and libraries? MacOSX?
Are you saying you know those to be platforms with problems, or are you
asking whether those platforms will have problems?
Both: MS never had weak/vague linkage, but I don't know about MacOSX.
This is not about weak or vague linkage. This is plain basic linker
feature where no library object needs to be linked if there is no symbol
to resolve.
I suspect them to have the same deficiency, but I'd be glad to be wrong.
Are you able to test it?
