RE: Building libraries

["Buczko, Michal" <Michal dot Buczko at domdata dot depfa-it dot com>]

Hi,

I had a simmilar problem with building a library using sn and after changing
linker from 'gcc' to 'ar' is seems to work perfectly but i think there is
another bug. building executable file gcc was unable to generete output
because all libraries i want to include are added to command line like this:


gcc -o ble ble1.o ble2.o /usr/lib/libncurses.a /usr/lib/libgcontrol.a

this causes lots of conflicts (no matter what is the order of these
libraries), but after replacing /usr/lib/libncurses.a with -lncurses and
/usr/lib/libgcontrol.a with -lgcontrol everything goes ok. that`s way i
wrote a simple patch that renames all included libraries from
/usr/lib/lib*.a to -l*. it isn`t too flexible but it should work.

file: gui/buildtarget.tcl

  method GetLibraryFiles {} {
        regsub -all -nocase {(/usr/lib/lib)([^\.]+)(\.a)} ${LibFiles} {-l\2}
LibFiles   <---- added line
        return ${LibFiles}
  }


Best regards,
