RE: [GD-Linux] Intel's C++ compiler

[Daniel V. <vo...@ep...>]

icc is well documented but for those who don't want to browse the 361 page
pdf here is a small summary of differences

gcc:

1. -export-dynamic
2. -fPIC -shared -Wl,-soname,$SONAME
3. #if __GNUG__

icc:

1. -Qoption,link,--export-dynamic
2. -KPIC -shared -Qoption,link,-soname,$SONAME
3. #if __ICC

BTW, icc supports #pragma pack and -Zp[n] which should make porting from
Windows easier :)
