>I try to compile the multiple sequence alignment editor Seaview by >Manolo Gouy. The archive contains several *.c files and some headers. Well, I don't know seaview, so handle my suggestions with care ;-) [del] >My potato contains only a libform.so. Do I have to use the static lib? The dynamic lib should do as well. >Compiling of the single *.c files works fine, but during linking process >I always get a heap of error messages with "undefined references to" >whatever kind of (fl_get_menu_item, fl_set_menu_item_mode, >fl_redraw_object etc). I was told, that presumably a library does not >fit here. That means that you don't link against the library with these symbols. >I copied the Makefile of another program, exchanged the file >names and put in the compiler and linker flags: > ># Compiler-Flags >CC = gcc -O3 -Wa,-m21164a -mieee -funroll-all-loops > ># Libs >LIBS = -L./forms.h -L/usr/lib/libform.so.5 -L./seaview.h \ >-L/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so -L/usr/local/lib/libffm.so -lm Sorry, this line is competely wrong. Behind -L should be only directories listed, where the compiler should search for libs. using LIB_PATH = -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/local/lib is probably overkill already. To link against libform, you have to use -l: LIBS = -lm -lform -lX11 -lffm So, you have to change your linking statement: > $(CC) -o $@ align.o seaview.o load_seq.o use_mase_files.o \ >comlines.o xfmatpt.o regions.o $(LIB_PATH) $(LIBS) HTH, Uli -- Dipl.
