Lee Doron updated XERCESC-1956:
-------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 3.2.0
Environment: Linux x86-64 (was: Linux x86_64)
> 64-bit binary distribution can't be statically linked into a shared library
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: XERCESC-1956
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1956
> Project: Xerces-C++
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build
> Affects Versions: 3.1.1
> Environment: Linux x86-64
> Reporter: Lee Doron
> Fix For: 3.1.2, 3.2.0
>
>
> I'm creating a shared object library that uses Xerces-C++. I'd prefer to link
> my code to the static library (libxerces-c.a). However, when I try to do
> that, I get a link error: "relocation R_X86_64_32S against `a local symbol'
> can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC". (I've
> encountered this on Linux so far, but this is actually cross-platform code
> that will also run on Windows and Mac, so if there would be a similar problem
> on those platforms, please consider this bug to include them.) It appears
> that it is impossible to statically link a shared object against 64-bit code
> that is position dependent, since the shared object must contain only
> position-independent code. The static libraries can only be linked directly
> into an executable.
> To fix this, I suggest that you please compile the static libraries for
> 64-bit Intel binary distributions such that they have position-independent
> code (the -fPIC option on gcc, as mentioned in the error above). Then it will
> be possible to link them either into an executable or into a shared object
> library. Thanks!
