Dear all, Hi, I'm new to libreoffice and its forum. I have a question but I am not sure where to ask. If this is the right place, here is the question :)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Question: I have successfully added a new dialog in Impress according to the steps in this tutorial - Development/Create new dialog in Impress - The Document Foundation Wiki. Now I wish to call functions in an external library in the dialog source file. I have an external library libxxx containing some C++ header files and a .so file. I put the header files in include/ folder and .so file outside libreoffice directory. I include the header files of this library in dialog source files located in sd/source/ui/dlg. I rerun the autogen.sh with extra arguments, trying to let the build system know I have a .so library to link. ./autogen.sh LDFLAGS=-L/path_to_libxxx LIBS=-lxxx Then I rebuild the sd module using make sd, however, it seems the functions in .so library is not properly linked. "/usr/bin/ld: /home/jingze_xu/office/libreoffice-7.6.0.0.beta1/workdir/CxxObject/sd/source/ui/dlg/HelloDialog.o: in function `sd::SdHelloDialog::OKHdl(weld::Button&)': HelloDialog.cxx:(.text+0x36c): undefined reference to `Add_FileHeader(std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> >, std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> >, unsigned short)' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [/home/jingze_xu/office/libreoffice-7.6.0.0.beta1/sd/Library_sdui.mk:10: /home/jingze_xu/office/libreoffice-7.6.0.0.beta1/instdir/program/libsduilo.so] Error 1 make: *** [Makefile:121: sd] Error 2" Are there some clues about linking so library in libreoffice codebase? Thanks! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If this is not the right place to ask questions, I'm sorry about this and please tell me where to ask questions. Thanks! Best wishes, Jingze Xu
