How to static compile program?
I have written a simply code,but I can't compile it staticly.
My development tools is sun studio 11.
cc -g -xCC -c-o Sun-x86-Solaris/shellcode.o shellcode.c
cc -g -xCC-o Sun-x86-Solaris/a.out Sun-x86-Solaris/shellcode.o -Bstatic
ld: fatal: library -lc: not found
ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to Sun-x86-Solaris/a.out
*** Error code 1
Perhaps solaris 10 can't compile staticly.
# 1
Static system libraries are no longer provided, starting with Solaris 10.
The reason is that programs linking a static system library from one release or patch level of Solaris cannot be guaranteed to work on a different release or patch level -- they may depend on system internals that are different.
Since every Solaris system has libraries that work correctly, there is never any need to link the libraries statically.

Its not only impossible, it is also dangerous (that is, strictly speaking, if you plan to run your code on any other machine _or_ install patches on your machine).There's a good article about that: see http://blogs.sun.com/rie/date/20041206
