In compiling OMPI 1.2 with Sun cc compiler on Linux I am getting the
following on result from make:
libtool: link: suncc -G class/.libs/opal_free_list.o

/dev/null: file not recognized: File truncated
I believe the issue is the resultant /dev/null added at the end. So I
manually tried the following:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/compissue> cc -mt -c foo.c -KPIC -DPIC -o foo.o
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/compissue> ar cru libtest.a foo.o
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/compissue> cc -G -Wl,--whole-archive,libtest.a
-Wl,--no-whole-archive -lnsl -lutil -lm -lc -mt -Wl,-soname
-Wl,libtest.so.0 -o libtest.so.0.0 /dev/null
/dev/null: file not recognized: File truncated
Same error as the above. Now let's remove the /dev/null...
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/compissue> cc -G -Wl,--whole-archive,libtest.a
-Wl,--no-whole-archive -lnsl -lutil -lm -lc -mt -Wl,-soname
-Wl,libtest.so.0 -o libtest.so.0.0
usage: cc [ options] files. Use 'cc -flags' for details
Oops, no input to compile (which is probably why /dev/null is used).
Ok, let's now add a .o...
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/compissue> cc -mt -c bar.c -KPIC -DPIC -o bar.o
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/compissue> cc -G -Wl,--whole-archive,libtest.a
-Wl,--no-whole-archive -lnsl -lutil -lm -lc -mt -Wl,-soname
-Wl,libtest.so.0 -o libtest.so.0.0 bar.o
And this works. So I am not sure if this might be a compiler change for
linux or what.
So other than providing a dummy.c I am not sure what more libtool could
do. I will be
passing this by our compiler guys too to see if they think /dev/null was
originally supported
and removed for some reason.
Note the following is my Sun CC version info:
cc: Sun C 5.9 Linux_i386 Build35_2 2006/12/04
