By default, the Intel® C++ Compiler links Intel-provided C++ libraries dynamically. The GNU* and Linux* system libraries are also linked dynamically.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| -i_dynamic | Use the -i_dynamic option to link Intel-provided C++ libraries dynamically (default). This has the advantage of reducing the size of the application binary, but it also requires the libraries to be on the systems where the application runs. |
| -shared | The -shared option instructs the compiler to build a Dynamic Shared Object (DSO) instead of an executable. For more details, refer to the ld man page documentation. |
| -fpic | Use the -fpic option when building shared libraries. It is required for the compilation of each object file included in the shared library. |
