OS/2 codes: How to writes initialization/termination codes with gcc
When programming, one of the most annoying things is to write initialization/termination codes. In case of DLL, OS/2 provides the opportunity for this by _DLL_InitTerm(). However, if it is a static library, OS/2 does not provide any ways for this. Instead, compilers provides its own ways for this. Of course, gcc has its own ways. They are __attribute__((consturctor)) for intialization and __attribute__((destructor)) for termination. Here are the sample code.
