| Ticket: | #365 |
| Component: | RTX-native |
| Type: | defect |
| Summary: | RTX layer is initialized too late in startup code for some C++ programs |
| Description: | During the loading of an application BEX file, the startup code will call an internal RTX function that initializes the RTX layer for this program, making it an IPC@CHIP application. This initialization function is called in a too late stage for some C++ programs, which use static objects. |
