Summary: 32- and 64-bit libraries are combined without error Product: D Version: D1 & D2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: DMD AssignedTo: nob...@puremagic.com ReportedBy: bugzi...@kyllingen.net --- Comment #0 from Lars T. Kyllingstad <bugzi...@kyllingen.net> 2011-06-10 06:58:20 PDT --- DMD will happily combine static library files for different architectures. This confuses the linker. Steps to reproduce (performed on 64-bit Linux): 1. Write libfoo.d. void foo() { } 2. Write libbar.d. void bar() { } 3. Compile libfoo as 32-bit library. dmd -lib -m32 libfoo.d 4. Compile libbar as 64-bit library, including libfoo. dmd -lib -m64 -oflibbar.a libfoo.a libbar.d 5. Compile any program with -m64 -lbar /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible ./libbar.a when searching for -lbar /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lbar ld accepts the library if -m32 is specified in step 5, but complains about the 64-bit object files. This is the model upon which druntime+Phobos is compiled. I spent an hour trying to figure out why the linker didn't recognise the 64-bit libphobos2.a, until I realised that it had been compiled with a 32-bit version of libdruntime.a. :( -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
