Hi there, Trying to add tests to the gobject-introspection test suite to cover more of the functions and learn about the code. wanted to create a simple test to create an object from the libgirepository_internals.a but having problems linking, wondering if anyone can give me some advice on this ?
code is here, https://github.com/h4ck3rm1k3/gobject-introspection it is a simple branch of the master git://git.gnome.org/gobject-introspectionadding some tests. The project page for GObjectIntrospection is http://live.gnome.org/GObjectIntrospection The test module that is not linking is : https://github.com/h4ck3rm1k3/gobject-introspection/blob/master/tests/repository/gitestenum.c All I did was add in the extra lib : $(top_builddir)/libgirepository-internals.la gitestenum_SOURCES = $(srcdir)/gitestenum.c gitestenum_CPPFLAGS = $(GIREPO_CFLAGS) -I$(top_srcdir)/girepository gitestenum_LDADD = $(top_builddir)/libgirepository-1.0.la $(top_builddir)/libgirepository-internals.la $(top_builddir)/libgirepository-gthash.la $(GIREPO_LIBS) here is the compiler errors: CCLD gitestenum ../../.libs/libgirepository-internals.a(libgirepository_internals_la-girnode.o): In function `_g_ir_node_get_full_size_internal': gobject-introspection/girepository/girnode.c:629: undefined reference to `g_type_tag_to_string' ../../.libs/libgirepository-internals.a(libgirepository_internals_la-girnode.o): In function `serialize_type': gobject-introspection/girepository/girnode.c:1198: undefined reference to `g_type_tag_to_string' ../../.libs/libgirepository-internals.a(libgirepository_internals_la-girmodule.o): In function `_g_ir_module_build_typelib': gobject-introspection/girepository/girmodule.c:548: undefined reference to `g_typelib_new_from_memory' ../../.libs/libgirepository-internals.a(libgirepository_internals_la-giroffsets.o): In function `get_type_size_alignment': gobject-introspection/girepository/giroffsets.c:300: undefined reference to `gi_type_tag_get_ffi_type' ../../.libs/libgirepository-internals.a(libgirepository_internals_la-giroffsets.o): In function `get_enum_size_alignment': gobject-introspection/girepository/giroffsets.c:174: undefined reference to `g_type_tag_to_string' ../../.libs/libgirepository-internals.a(libgirepository_internals_la-giroffsets.o): In function `get_type_size_alignment': gobject-introspection/girepository/giroffsets.c:311: undefined reference to `g_type_tag_to_string' What is bothering me is that the symbols are there : gobject-introspection/.libs$ nm libgirepository-1.0.so | grep g_type_tag_to_string 0000f0c0 T g_type_tag_to_string gobject-introspection/.libs$ nm libgirepository-1.0.a | grep g_type_tag_to_string U g_type_tag_to_string 00001e00 T g_type_tag_to_string U g_type_tag_to_string And here is the internal linker command /usr/lib/gcc/i686-linux-gnu/4.6.1/collect2 --build-id --no-add-needed --as-needed --eh-frame-hdr -m elf_i386 --hash-style=gnu -dynamic-linker /lib/ld-linux.so.2 -z relro -o .libs/gitestenum /usr/lib/gcc/i686-linux-gnu/4.6.1/../../../i386-linux-gnu/crt1.o /usr/lib/gcc/i686-linux-gnu/4.6.1/../../../i386-linux-gnu/crti.o /usr/lib/gcc/i686-linux-gnu/4.6.1/crtbegin.o -L/usr/lib/gcc/i686-linux-gnu/4.6.1 -L/usr/lib/gcc/i686-linux-gnu/4.6.1/../../../i386-linux-gnu -L/usr/lib/gcc/i686-linux-gnu/4.6.1/../../../../lib -L/lib/i386-linux-gnu -L/lib/../lib -L/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu -L/usr/lib/../lib -L/usr/lib/gcc/i686-linux-gnu/4.6.1/../../.. gitestenum-gitestenum.o --export-dynamic ../../.libs/libgirepository-1.0.so../../.libs/libgirepository-internals.a -lm -ldl /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ libgio-2.0.so /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgmodule-2.0.so -lffi /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgobject-2.0.so /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ libgthread-2.0.so -lrt /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so -lgcc --as-needed -lgcc_s --no-as-needed -lpthread -lc -lgcc --as-needed -lgcc_s --no-as-needed /usr/lib/gcc/i686-linux-gnu/4.6.1/crtend.o /usr/lib/gcc/i686-linux-gnu/4.6.1/../../../i386-linux-gnu/crtn.o thanks, mike PS : This message was posted to the Mailing list: gtk-devel-list@gnome.org but was awaiting moderation, maybe it was that I subscribed with @gmail not @googlemail. So I had posted it to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9756571/gobjectintrospection-linking-to-libgirepository-internals-and-libgirepository-1 for asking help, now I have resubscribed to the list with the email matching my sender name. -- James Michael DuPont Member of Free Libre Open Source Software Kosova http://flossk.org
