It seems you're correct. I looked through some of the older 
projects I've made on this machine (ones where I used make 
instead of dub), I found that whenever I made a shared library, I 
always had to revert to using gcc, rather than gdc. I will need 
to examine my setup.


Thank you for the rapid response!

Issues creating a dynamic libary with dub

2020-03-24 Thread mitchell via Digitalmars-d-learn

Hello,

I'm having issues creating a dynamic library with dub.
The dub config file contains (with the exception of the names and 
such) only


targetType "dynamicLibrary"

When I attempt to buld the library, I get:

common ~master: building configuration "library"...
/usr/bin/ld: 
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/5/libgphobos2.a(ascii.o): 
relocation R_X86_64_32S against `.data' can not be used when 
making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/5/libgphobos2.a: error adding 
symbols: Bad value

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
gdc failed with exit code 1.

I've been working with D for quite a while, but I've never really 
used dub. It looks like dub is attempting to attach phobos to the 
dynamic link library I'm trying to create. Is there something 
simple which I'm missing entirely?


I would have asked on the dub forums, but they seem to be down 
right now.
