This is somewhat OT for Ruby-Talk, but I want to build this against
Ruby later, and Ruby is built with GCC. I suppose I could make
another one built with Sun’s cc, put it somewhere else, but I’d
consider that a violation of DRY.
Anyway, my question which I’ve been wrestling with for over a week, and
which help from the gcc-help list hasn’t solved for me, is:
Compiling my application (which uses FFTW 3.1) with the Sun cc works,
and I get an executable, but compiling it with gcc I get errors of
the form:
[...]
gcc -R/usr/local/lib -g -I/usr/local/include -z verbose -z rescan
-L/progs/SUNWspro/lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/lib/sparcv9:/usr/lib:/usr/share/lib:/usr/dt/lib:/usr/openwin/lib:/opt/panorama/lib:/opt/sfw/lib
-lfftw3 -lm -ll -lpng -lz -o fsv fsv.o fft_2d_filter.o y.tab.o

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
gmake: *** [fsv] Error 1
The fftw3 library exists, as do the png libraries, I recently tried
adding
the -R option into the build of fftw3 so that the paths to the libraries
would get built in, but I get the same errors anyway.
I thought my libraries might be in the wrong order, and putting -lz
after
-lpng got rid of the errors like:
/usr/local/lib/gcc/sparc-sun-solaris2.9/4.1.0/…/…/…/libpng.so:
undefined reference to deflate' /usr/local/lib/gcc/sparc-sun-solaris2.9/4.1.0/../../../libpng.so: undefined reference toinflate’
[…]
I don’t really know how to get that right in future. I tried using
lorder and tsort but that produces a huge amount of output (in
/usr/local/lib):
bash-2.05$ ls lib{fftw*,z*,png*} | xargs lorder | tsort |wc
/usr/ccs/bin/nm: libfftw3.la: invalid file type
352 352 3946
bash-2.05$
Can anyone help me out with this, or have I entered a really obscure
area of C programming?
Sorry for the OT nature of this, but I want to get to the bottom of
this, or I’m just “programming by coincidence”. The difference
between witchcraft and science… There is no fftw3 list, which is
hardly an excuse.
Thank you,
Hugh
