Re: atexit

[Derek L Davies <ddavies@ddavies.net>]

I get this:

gcc ae.c -o ae
/tmp/ccu0o440.o: In function `main':
/tmp/ccu0o440.o(.text+0x37): undefined reference to `atexit'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

with my test program.  A similar test using on_exit works as
expected.

My stdlib.h has:

/* Register a function to be called when `exit' is called.  */
extern int atexit __P ((void (*__func) (void)));

Which appears to be a declaration for atexit, but there doesn't seem
to be any definition happening with the versions of the library that
I've found recently.
