<parameter>-nostdinc</parameter> and <parameter>-isystem</parameter>

flags to control the compiler's include search path. These items

included in the executable, resulting in a rather bulky program. When

dynamic linker, the name of the library, and the name of the function,

programming interface of the dynamic linker (see <filename>dlopen(3)</filename>

<para>Dynamic linking is the default on Linux and has three major

advantages over static linking. First, only one copy of the executable

library code is needed on the hard disk, instead of having multiple
|

copies of the same code included in several programs, thus saving
|
||||
disk space. Second, when several programs use the same library
|
||||
function at the same time, only one copy of the function's code is
|
||||
required in core, thus saving memory space. Third, when a library
|

function gets a bug fixed or is otherwise improved, only the one
|

library needs to be recompiled instead of recompiling all programs

that make use of the improved function.</para>

<para>If dynamic linking has several advantages, why then do we

statically link the first two packages in this chapter? The reasons

are threefold—historical, educational, and technical. The
|

historical reason is that earlier versions of LFS statically linked
|
||||
every program in this chapter. Educationally, knowing the difference
|

between static and dynamic linking is useful. The technical benefit is
|
||||
a gained element of independence from the host, meaning that those
|
||||
programs can be used independently of the host system. However, it is
|
||||
worth noting that an overall successful LFS build can still be
|

achieved when the first two packages are built dynamically.</para>
