Sorry for the newbie question but, would g++ produce arm-hardfloat binaries automatically in latest debian wheezy if I don't specify any compiler options? (no "-march=armv6 -mfpu=vfp -mfloat-abi=hard" or anything).
g++ -v seems to suggest it's configured with these options:
- Code: Select all
pi@raspberrypi ~/nx $ g++ -v
Using built-in specs.
COLLECT_GCC=g++
COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/4.6/lto-wrapper

Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.6.3 (Debian 4.6.3-12+rpi1)
...but I don't know if these are the options the compiler was compiled with, or the options that will be used when compiling new binaries without need of specifying them, or both.
Running "readelf -A" on a binary I compiled on raspbian wheezy with g++ without any of these options gives this result:
- Code: Select all
pi@raspberrypi ~/nx $ readelf -A nx

...wich seems to suggest this binary is a hardfloar one and it's using the FPU on the SOC.
Am I right on this?
