| Summary | 0000667: CVS build halted by problems with libcode.a | ||||
| Description | It appears that the build creates a "libcode.a" file which is then expected to be in the path by subsequent rules. My CVS build aborts due to "." not being in path, as the rule attempts to execute libcode.a in the current directory. Many systems ship without "." on the path for security reasons. | ||||
| Additional Information | The file is also not created +x, though it appears to be executed as a script. Attempts to "chmod +x" the file were unhelpful, due to the 8-byte file's contents consisting solely of "!<arch>" and no more. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

Followup notes: it appears that there are other more subtle problems. I am no autotools expert so I missed it at first. The "$(LINK)" variable is not getting set by my CVS checkout. I have no theory why yet. Setting it manually to "g++" results in this error: pvh@arroyo:~/mnt/fsnew/fs2_open $ make Making all in libjpeg make[1]: Entering directory `/home/pvh/mnt/fsnew/fs2_open/libjpeg' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/pvh/mnt/fsnew/fs2_open/libjpeg' Making all in lua make[1]: Entering directory `/home/pvh/mnt/fsnew/fs2_open/lua' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/pvh/mnt/fsnew/fs2_open/lua' Making all in code make[1]: Entering directory `/home/pvh/mnt/fsnew/fs2_open/code' g++ libcode.a ../libjpeg/libjpeg.a ../lua/liblua.a /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.0.2/../../../../lib/crt1.o: In function `_start': ../sysdeps/i386/elf/start.S:115: undefined reference to `main' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [fs2_open_r] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/pvh/mnt/fsnew/fs2_open/code' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 pvh@arroyo:~/mnt/fsnew/fs2_open $ As always, glad to help debug. -p |

Sounds like libcode.a isn't getting created properly and it should never try to be executed so something else is wrong there. Were there any other build errors? You are missing all of the CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, and extra cpp files that are supposed to be linked as the final step. That's why you are getting the 'main' undefined reference. Do a 'make distclean && ./autogen.sh --enable-debug && make' and see if that helps it any. |

Your recommendation fixed it. Thanks! The "INSTALL" file should probably be changed to recommend using ./autogen.sh instead of what it says right now. There was also an AL related problem. My new version of OpenAL (as recommended on the other thread) doesn't have an alut.h, but commenting that line out from each file made things work fine. |

Hmm, I thought I removed the alut.h includes already. Guess that's only locally in the newer sound code. ALUT is a separate package now and we don't use it anyway so it's safe to remove those lines. I'll be sure to fix that in CVS. |

ALUT headers removed. Not-A-Bug. Closered. |
