A segfault occurs when executing the executable file which bound the log4cplus static lib(log4cplus.a)

[XieChengzhi1998]

Hello, When I compiling log4cplus, I only generated static library bfiles, the configure option i used was ./configure --prefix=/home/log4cplus --enable-static --disable-shared After compiling, i got four files: liblog4cplus.a, liblog4cplus.la , liblog4cplusU.a, liblog4cplusU.la

Then I successfully performed static compilation through these library files, but a segmentation error was reported during the execution of the program. The error message is XXX[55809]: segfault at fffffffffffffff8 ip 00007f60bf23b2bb sp 00007ffde8c6cce0 error 5 in libstdc++.so.6.0.28 [7f60bf157000+1bd000]

And when I dynamically compile log4cplus to generate .so files, my program can be executed correctly. I want to know how to solve this segfault and successfully compile log4cplus staticalto my program

My linux version is Red Hat 4.8.5-4, the log4cplus version is 2.0.5

I am afraind this is not enough information to go on. Can you start it under GDB and provide a call stack of the failure?

Thanks for your reply. Is this the call stack information you need? I printed it through the traceback command under gdb

This is static initialization order fiasco. Your library is trying to use log4cplus before some static members have been initialized.

Thank you very much for your answer, I understand what you mean. I am trying to solve this problem by changing the library link order in the makefile so that the log4cplus library is linked first. But this problem still existed. I am wondering that are there any simpler approches to solve this problem or i have to change the source code of my project.
