Great, this worked ! Thanks a lot, Mark.

Functions defined in XFree86 are not resolved in libextmod.a when referenced as extern. Why ? Is there a way to help the symbol resolution ?

RE: libextmod.a does not resolve symbols in XFree86
I have run into the same problem and was wondering what would it take for the people in charge to export additional symbols? For example I am porting our X server to Xfree86 which accelerated fonts by storing some glyph information in graphics memory. In our X server this was implemented by allocating Font privates by calling AllocateFontPrivateIndex() but this is not an exported symbol. Now I cannot use this feature and text drawing is 40% slower than what it was in our X server. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Mark Vojkovich Sent: Wednesday, July 14, 2004 1:26 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: libextmod.a does not resolve symbols in XFree86 On Wed, 14 Jul 2004, Michael Boccara wrote: Functions defined in XFree86 are not resolved in libextmod.a when referenced as extern.
