code warrior linker error
I'm getting the error MacOS 68K Linker caused exception 0xc005 when I build a multi-segment C++ project in CodeWarrior (v6, 68Linker.dll v2.3.2.0). It happens as soon as I declare a global object of a class that has a constructor defined. It doesn't happen if I reduce the scope of the global object, and it doesn't happen if I remove the constructor from the global object's class. I assume the problem is something to do with the __InitCode__() routine that the linker needs to generate for the object's implicit constructor call on startup. Is there a known fix for this? I've seen references to the problem in the archives, but the cause seems to be unknown in most cases. Here it's definitely isolated and repeatable. -M-[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- For information on using the ACCESS Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.access-company.com/developers/forums/

Re: Linker Error
If you use just the SyncManager API (the raw C API), you should be able to use the sync DLLs. If you use the C++ classes, you'll have MFC dependency issues, since the classes are derived from MFC classes. Yes (I did try and explain that at one point, but I don't think I was clear enough :( ), and I think Del is confusing the two.

Re: Linker Error
At this point, I've been able to download every element of a PalmOS record and place it in a field using COM. I appreciate the fact that this COM approach is well-documented in the PalmOS Sync Suite, and not at all objectionable in terms of relative ease of use. I am inclined to note that the C++ code to which I was originally directed and which produced the results that have been described in prior posts was said to not contain MFC classes by the party who pointed me there. I had stipulated this requirement in the request that resulted in that recommendation. The problems that Builder had were with a .def file generated by the IMPDEF routine. That file included what someone who seems to be fairly esteemed by the Borland user's group (and certainly are by me in terms of some past responses received from them) identified as several mangled references to what were probably Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) in the .def file that IMPDEF produced from the pre-compiled sync20.dll. (IMPDEF is simple to use and requires only a dll name and a .def file output name. IMPLIB was also used on the sync20.dll in an attempt to get rid of any incompatibility with Builder.) Builder would not initially link with the sync20.dll, which contains functions that the C++ code that I had downloaded from the site to which I was referred did include in terms of a number of function prototypes but which my linker could not seem to identify and perceived as unknown. It was the sync20.dll, which produced a .def file that included mangled references to unknown functions. I do not know if the MFC classes were actually used in the base code as I did not review it myself in detail given the linker error. I don't know with certainty if the references to which I previously referred in a .def file produced from the sync20.dll and which I listed in a prior post were mangled references to MFC classes as someone else suggested to me. The problem linking seemed fundamental and not one that I could easily get around. I note that recompiling the dll for C and not C++ was recommended at the Borland user group site. Mr. Ben Combee, the PalmOS representative, has referred to accessing the API C function calls directly, and not C++ calls. This makes me wonder if the sync20.dll is compiled for C++ or C, and is, as a result and for reasons that I acknowledge are beyond my present comprehension, not compatible if you don't have the means for a linker to identify the compiled C++ classes that it contains. (I was happy to transition from C to some grasp of what C++ and class structures were all about in the hours I spent after work learning these languages in evening college courses several years ago. The fine points of linking, in terms of linking with code within dll's compiled as C or C++ code and potential impediments due to use of classes compiled within the dll weren't part of those courses, being, I presume, associated with computer science theory on a more advanced level.) I don't want to drag this out, as I seem to have found a solution using COM and VB 5.0, which didn't prove to be the nightmare I had begun to anticipate given the way in which COM seems to be perceived by some. (Maybe that only occurs when it is run on a user's system and OS after a software release!) I am responding to the prior posts not be obstinate or difficult, but merely because there seems to be something missing from conclusions that ignore the following: 1. The conduit code I was using (and had downloaded) was not supposed to contain MFC references. I don't have MFC on my system, and have never used these classes, so I would not be tempted to add them to any code that I employ. Everything C or C++ on my system is made by Borland (C++ 4.5 and Builder 6.0). 2. The sync20.dll file alone was the original source of references to what were identified as possibly mangled MFC references in a .def file produced from it. 3. The sync20.dll file was the file that I was advised to recompile as a C file instead of a C++ file by a knowledgeable person in the Borland Builder user group in order to link with it without having MFC on my system. 4. A recommendation from a professional C++ programmer with PalmOS to call C API functions directly that are compiled within the sync20.dll file raises a question in my mind with regard to item 3. (Is the sync20.dll compiled for C or for C++? Also, would the settings on my compiler, for C or C++, have any effect on the ability to link with a dll even if C API functions were being directly referenced by the code I am using? Note: There are still all those question marks created by IMPDEF in the .def file produced from sync20.dll with regard to those mangled function names, which are at the core of the problem, given that Builder stops and references those functions when I attempt to compile and link with the sync20.def file as part of the project.) Please keep in mind that this is largely a moot point for me given my
Re: Linker Error
I note that recompiling the dll for C and not C++ was recommended at the Borland user group site. Yes, but they had imperfect knowledge of the problem. Sync20.dll does not use C++ (at least in presenting anything externally) or it would not be callable from anything but C++. It uses straight C calling conventions, which is how I am able to call things in it from Delphi. There are no classes in anything to do with exported functions from that DLL, only structs. These are all defined in a header file (syncmgr.h IIRC). However, there is other code in many C++ conduit examples which does rely on MFC, but it is all the conduit code, not the calls to sync20.dll routines.

Re: Linker Error
Syncmgr.h was, as I understand the process, accessed while the program was compiling, not linking, and my problem was with a linker error. I don't understand the need to refer to imperfect knowledge. A linker problem must develop from fairly well known causes, to which professional programmers must be sensitive, and thus able to recognize even without the code in front of them. If the linker can't fill in a reference, it produces a linker error. If a compiler can't find a header file containing a function or a specific function not contained within a dll, it produces completely different errors. I originally had Builder set to look in the directories containing the .lib and .dll files you have referenced, the linker error persisted as my list of directories associated with linking and compiling within Builder grew even larger in an attempt to insure that any possible shred of code that I had was available. The IMPDEF program's .def file based on sync20.dll caused a problem with specific, unknown function names. (Why were they unknown if the dll was self-contained?) Had the .def file generated by IMPDEF not produced multiple unknown function names, I would probably be considering the source as possibly containing MFC references that were the sole origin of the problem, although MFC references derived from a header file reference should have been caught, I would have thought, by the compiler. (Granted, I presume that MFC classes are based in header files, like OWL classes.) The original source may well contain MFC function calls. The party who recommended the source indicated that he believed, but was not absolutely certain, that it did not. Shouldn't the compiler have complained about unknown function calls explicitly referenced and used within the source, before it reached the linking stage if the cause was not with a dll file? I saw nothing that suggested that any header files not included in either Borland's include directory or the CDK include directories were required. The restriction to a linker error suggests that the problem was in external code references that the linker could not fill in. I'm probably not the only one whose grown a little tired of this, so I'll stop here, even if I must remain uncertain of the specific cause.

Re: Linker Error
I'm not exactly away to the races, but the COM dll just enabled me to access the name field of one of my records. If I can access integers and strings as easily, I may be able to complete the conduit. Well, all Palm records are just blobs of bytes, so you always have to do the work splitting that blob into sensible things yourself. One of the reasons I wrote some Delphi components was to encapsulate all that logic. I have never perceived myself or asserted to be a programmer who normally works with dll's at the level that some who address this forum are capable. There is nothing special about writing DLLs. The just have to have some pre-agreed entry point functions, so that external code knows what it can call. Otherwise you can do pretty much everything you would do in a normal application. Using COM is IMO the harder route to follow than calling the C APIs directly, but that's just me. Bob (Combee) indicated that one of the necessary dll's from PalmOS isn't This is a red herring.

A Borland programming group had suggested that I recompile the dll from source code Definitely, definitely, definitely not necessary. You're getting side-tracked on a non-issue. Of course, if my thinking is correct, I now have to take a byte array and, using the structure from my Palm application in CodeWarrior, convert each field in the record into a string or an int based upon the number of bytes it represents. Yes, you do. This may well explain the reference to a COM quagmire in a prior response. No it doesn't :-) I made that comment in regard to how poor a technology COM is in general.

Re: Linker Error
A conduit dll from PalmOS is the code that contains the MFC references, as acknowledged by Mr. Combee. Without access to the referenced MFC components on my system, the code that references it can't link to it. One would have to write some sort of replacement. I'd rather not. A dll is compiled code. I don't want to spend my time creating my own versions of MFC classes. Being able to call one function or many in a dll from any language was never in question. The problem I encountered came from referenced functions in a dll that I do not have, which interfered with linking. (People with MFC on their system and IDE's that are set up to look in the MFC directories for the MFC code may well be able to develop in any language that is set up to link with MFC code without them even being aware that this is happening.) The MFC code can not be linked into one's program if one does not have the MFC code, unless one wishes to find a way to develop one's own version of the MFC code as replacements (hence the recommendations to develop a stub dll or to recompile the dll code so as to eliminate references to code that one does not have). If I'd had MFC on my system, the problem might not have arisen in the first place assuming that Builder could find and link to the MFC code without use of IMPDEF and IMPLIB to insure compatibility, although there would have remained the question of whether I could legally link Borland code with MFC classes from a Borland IDE. (I don't have the VC++ licensing agreement and don't know if it stipulates that use of MFC classes is restricted to the VC++ development environment.) My problem was largely a product of not having the major development platforms supported by PalmOS for C++ under Windows, which is C++ .NET. (I'd acquire it, but I'm concerned that some of my older software might not run under Windows XP, given that I am now running Windows 98 SE.) By supported, I refer to having access to a PalmOS wizard and sample code that is restricted to classes and header files provided with a particular IDE and PalmOS documentation describing how to develop the conduit with meaningful references to the IDE menus and the classes that come with the IDE. (Use of Microsoft VC++ also positions one to access the MFC in a manner that leaves no doubt with regard to whether one can legally incorporate them into one's software.) I simply have never been inclined to use Microsoft VC++, having learned C++ in classes that employed Borland's IDE. My perspective previously has been that one could use VB for the front-end, and write dlls in C++ for any mathematically intensive application requiring use of complex numbers and matrices, given that VB was once considered to execute mathematical operations more slowly than other languages. The COM approach wasn't my first choice in terms of accomplishing the code using API access through direct calls, as described in the PalmOS documentation and reinforced by advice I have received from others here. It is compatible with VB 5.0, and thus one of my favorite programming languages. Accessing the Palm database under Builder was recommended by Mr. Combee using COM, and would have represented another, supported option, although one with few advantages over using VB from my perspective given inability to directly access API calls. Thanks to all who have responded. There is nothing special about writing DLLs. The just have to have some pre-agreed entry point functions, so that external code knows what it can call.

Re: Linker Error
It seems to be necessary if you don't have MFC on your system based on no install of VC++, because Builder won't compile with the indicated references in the .def file. I still say that's not necessary. I can call all these things from a different language that cannot possibly be using MFC. All these calls are just calls to DLL exported routines.

But he seems to be stuck on the requirement to use a prescribed environment to get his conduit built.

Re: Linker Error
I'm not exactly away to the races, but the COM dll just enabled me to access the name field of one of my records. If I can access integers and strings as easily, I may be able to complete the conduit. I think there is a point that isn't being considered here. I have never perceived myself or asserted to be a programmer who normally works with dll's at the level that some who address this forum are capable. As a result (and in part because some kind souls had tried to reassure me that conduits were, or should be, easy), I prefer to use straightforward mechanisms provided by PalmOS in an effort to achieve a goal at a level at which I can work. I posted the message that got this started because I had thought the code that someone was kind enough to send me was free from MFC references. Bob (Combee) indicated that one of the necessary dll's from PalmOS isn't, and a recent version of Borland's compiler wouldn't compile because of those references. A Borland programming group had suggested that I recompile the dll from source code for a C application rather than for C++, or get the source code and find a way around the MFC references, which seems comparable to writing this stub dll. (Would a future dll from PalmOS not potentially include MFC references that weren't in a stub dll meant to overcome MFC references in an older version of the dll?) All useful suggestions that I'm sure a more advanced programmer might have been able to apply, if they were willing to deal with creating certain complications to the development of their software and, potentially, multiple versions of a public dll, of which PalmOS would probably not approve. In the interest of keeping things simple for me while I learn how to develop a conduit, seeking out and installing other compilers based upon specific criteria, or developing a sufficient background in dll's to be able to write dll stub files, or acquiring PalmOS dll source code and compiling it for C rather than C++, are possible with time, but I'd rather find a straightforward route that is more in keeping with readily accessible and published help files and languages that PalmOS might consider supporting. Examples are very important to someone who is a beginner, like me. That put me on the COM track, and happily, VB5 is letting me access the records during a sync. It is fortunate that I did acquire this compiler years ago, as it has saved me from a level of C++ complexity that would probably have added days to my efforts. Of course, if my thinking is correct, I now have to take a byte array and, using the structure from my Palm application in CodeWarrior, convert each field in the record into a string or an int based upon the number of bytes it represents. This may well explain the reference to a COM quagmire in a prior response. Rest assured that I am always grateful for the helpful suggestions that I get here. I am quite new to C or C++ for more than engineering computations and matrix manipulation, and am simply trying to approach PalmOS programming from a perspective that is realistic for me.

I hope you didn't think that I was critisizing you in my note. I was just thinking that what you needed most was someone to reassure you that you DID have the tools necessary to get the job done. Often when someone tries something for the first time they encounter some road-blocks and it doesn't work out. Knowing that the tools are appropriate will prompt them to try harder, clean up some code, try to make sense of the previously-foreign concepts. If they KNOW that the tools will work, then it is often just a matter of persistence until the get a working solution. BUT, there is sometimes the question Is it even POSSIBLE with the tools that I'm using? What if the tools that I'm using will NEVER produce a workable solution, because they are fundamentally wrong. Given that last worry, it is very instructive for someone to lean over your shoulder and say Don't worry, you are on the right track, you'll get there. I would have liked to think that there was a hello world type sample conduit included with the COM documentation, which could be readily compiled without requiring specific build environments. That's the way that I learn start with a very basic functioning example, then build it up to do what I want. Like I said before, I haven't looked into conduits myself, so I can't offer much help. But I'm interested in the subject, so I'm following your progress.

It seems to be necessary if you don't have MFC on your system based on no install of VC++, because Builder won't compile with the indicated references in the .def file. (I considered going after the MFC files, but it occurred to me that compiling them without owning VC++ would probably be contrary to a licensing agreement, and I don't know if that route would even work.) Actually, my goal was to get BC++ 4.5 to compile, and it seemed that if I couldn't get a basic conduit file to compile with Builder, I had no shot with BC++ 4.5. The lack of wisdom in creating application specific, custom versions of standard Palm dll's has been discussed previously by others, so I abandoned that thought (although it was certainly a valid suggestion).

Linker Error

The dll that caused the problem is Sync20.dll, which is pretty central to building a conduit. Can anyone help with items 1 or 2 of the suggestions at the end?

Any idea how to deal with this? Those are mangled names of exported class functions. Probably of MFC-based VC++ classes. If that DLL does export C++ functions, and it was created using Visual C++, then you cannot use it as is. So, what can you do? 1) Get the source code, and build it using BCB. 2) Assuming no source ... use VC++ to create a DLL that exports standard __stdcall functions, ones that are _not_ C++ functions, but rather C ones. 3) Write your program using VC++.

Note: I m writing my apps in C using CW9.0. I tried various linkers in the project settings, but didnt help. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Linker error: Structure is undefined...
Ok, I found myself looking at Near Data segment bigger than 64K and thinking what to do... First I noticed that PC Relative constant data was turned off so all my const structures were in fact in the data segment. Checked that and resolved a couple of millions Invalid 32bit reference to some structure, etc by rearranging some code. That's ok. However I left the biggest (around 23K) structure to be made const last. It was defined and filled in a .H file and when I made it const I've got this 32bit reference again. So I moved it to a C file and put togather in the segment with function it was accessed from and... surprise - I've got linker error That this structure is undefined. It's strange because it's defined, included in the project, have an extern prototype... like the others, but this one fires an linker error. So I have 3 questions: 1. Is this something stupid and have anybody faced such a problem? 2. Is this a common linker bug that's supposed to be resolved somewhere in the future 3. Does the size matter? :)) -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/

RE: Zlib linker error
Hello Scott, thanks for helping out. The parameter flagged above is wrong -- ZLibcompress2 takes an (unsigned long*) but you are passing an (unsigned long) instead. The unnecessary cast is actually masking the error. (There are several other unnecessary casts in this code too.) Just pass complen. You must pass the address of complen since this is an in/out parameter. On input it tells zlib how big the output buffer is, and on output it tells you how many bytes of output there actually are. I have tried it. but the problem remains the same, it returns me the buffer error (-5) .Further I have checked the archives from this forum. I have found 2 or 3 messages that they are also having the same problem. Could you please do me favour, Please use the shared library of zlib and see wether it gives the buffer error on the Codewarrior 8. Or please give me the link of the project there they have actually used the compress2() function Thanks in advance.

RE: Zlib linker error
From: Amit Kalekar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] unsigned long complen = (unsigned long)51 * (unsigned long)120 / (unsigned long)100 + (unsigned long)12; Bytef* compbuf = new Bytef[complen]; Allocating a plenty big output buffer, good. MemSet(compbuf, 0x00, complen); As Martin Elzen pointed out, this call is bad since MemSet is backwards from standard memset. But you don't need to zero the output buffer anyway so this is not your problem. (Just remove this call.) char * packet = (char *)Select CustomerName, CustomerID from customers; The length of this string is 46 bytes plus the terminator, not the 51 hard coded in the call below. Suggest you use StrLen for this. int nRet = ZLibcompress2 ( ZLibRef, (Bytef*) compbuf, (unsigned long*) complen, // - ???

Ummm, I tried the first two (removing object code, and also removing the _Data directory) and the errors persist. This is not multi-segment, so that leaves the run time library. In my project settings (project window) I see that it is PalmOSRuntime_2i_A5.lib. I am trying to build this for PalmOS 3.1 and above. I have built the runtime libraries (according to the CW docs) successfully. I have tried dragging the PalmOSRuntime_4i_A5.lib into the project and then deleting the other (2i), remove object code, re-make, same result.

Linker error Near data segment is bigger than 64k (question to Ben Combee)
Hi, I am developing Palm Application with CW R6. My Application use C++ Exceptions. On some stage of development process I received mentioned linker error. I reviewed generated by linker MAP file. Indeed, Application's data segment is overflowed, moreover just data section above A5 is overflowed. This section contains segment table and exception info. Data section below A5 has ~20K free space.

Linker error Near data segment is bigger than 64k
Hi, I am developing Palm Application using latest version of POL. On some stage of development process I received Near data segment is bigger than 64k linker error. I know about segment structure of the Palm Applications and also I know that data segment should be less than 64k. Code of my Application is divided between 7 segments and I think that data segment does not have more than 64k information. This error occurs after I added a new pies of code to the Application. When I comment (remove) this new code (or some piece of old code) I do not receive above linker error. Also, I can define global variable with size ~20k and my Application is successfully linked. More over the full release version (all commented code is included) is successfully linked. I do not understand where the problem is. How can I resolve it? P.S. I have read all messages in this conference with the same subject but I have not found answer for my problem. Thanks, Lubomyr Humetsky.

I know about segment structure of the Palm Applications and also I know that data segment should be less than 64k. Code of my Application is divided between 7 segments and I think that data segment does not have more than 64k information. The 64K data issue is completely unrelated to multi-segmenting. You are only allowed to have 32K of global/static data referenced from either side of the A4 register. Assuming your're using CodeWarrior, you can see how much space you're using by generating a link map from your last successful link (set this in the 68K Linker panel). Then look at your .tmp.MAP file and after all the code segment information, there is a line that tells you how much space you are takikng up above and below A5. Then, you can look at ways to decrease this. In the 68K Processor panel, check the box for PC-Relative Constant Data to move some of your constant data into the code segment. You might also benefit from using the new Expanded Mode in CW for Palm V8 (see http://www.metrowerks.com/pdf/Expanded_Mode.pdf for more details) since you're using C++. -hkmlt -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/

You have to seperate your files into multiple segments. Precompiled Headers is only the name of your segment that is over 64k.

RE: Linker error
My congratulations. This is not yet about size, but about long jumps the jumps over 32K ie any direction. libcrt.o comes from libcrt.a, located at /usr/m68k-palmos/lib or as to gcrt.o it is probably a part of libgcc.a (I have it in /usr/lib/gcc-lib/m68k-palmos/2.95.3-kgpd) If unsure, check map file. Possible solutions: - multigen (sic!) - multilink - a very nice piece of software, that works almost exactly as I wanted it to (I dicovered that just few minutes ago - what a relief !) http://www.djw.org/product/palm/multilink/index.html - Re-arrange your modules /usr/m68k-palmos/lib/libsrt.a main.o (assuming this modules has PilotMain ... rest.o Once you get relocation errors for your own entries only (not for GCC ones), you can use stubs (br.w ...): this is how I managed to extend my project (without using multigen, multilink, etc) for up to 60K.

First, very little of the MSL C library is implmented in CW Palm 7 and earlier. More is done in CW Palm 8, but its still not a full implmentation.

Re: C string functions and strtok() linker error, using CW 7?
Well, I actually had a couple of things cleared up via a posting I had a
couple of days agofrom the reply I got:
To use the MSL C++ library in CW Palm 7:
1) Add {Compiler}Palm OS Support\CodeWarrior Libraries\(MSL) to your
access paths.
2) Add ANSICPPPALM.LIB to your project (this file is found in (MSL)\MSL
C++\MSL_Palm\Lib\Palm.
This will make you include the right header files and give the
additional definitions you need to use a std::string.
In CW Palm 8, you just choose MSL C/C++ Library in the application
wizard, and your project is setup correctly for you from the start.

Subject: C string functions and strtok() linker error, using CW 7?
Dear subscribers.
I'm currently using CW 7 and developing a simple application. In this
application I would like to use the standard C library functions such as
strtok(), strlen(), strcpy() etc, implemented in the MSL library.
My problem is that strtok() generates a linker error when I'm compiling
the
project. All other of the functions mentioned above seems to compile and
link OK. I've tried to add string.c from the MSL library, which was the
only
place I could find an implementation of strtok(), to my project but it
doesn't compile cleanly. Any help would be appreciated.
Another question is, is it wise to use the standard C functions at all in
a
Palm OS project?
Kind regards, Ola Theander

At what MHz is your CPU running, and how much memory do you have? When I switched from a 100MHz, 128MB machine to a 1.4 GHz, 256MB machine, Constructor went from about 20 to 30 seconds down to about 4 or 5 seconds to open itself and load an rsrc file.

I've tried doing a select all on the correct bitmap, creating a new bitmap and pasting, but a corrupt color mess is what gets pasted. Any ideas on how to fix this? Also, as long as I'm asking, Constructor (for Windows) has always taken a really long time (20-30 seconds) to open my .rsrc files. Is this normal?

From: Craig Patchett Also, as long as I'm asking, Constructor (for Windows) has always taken a really long time (20-30 seconds) to open my .rsrc files. Is this normal? At what MHz is your CPU running, and how much memory do you have? When I switched from a 100MHz, 128MB machine to a 1.4 GHz, 256MB machine, Constructor went from about 20 to 30 seconds down to about 4 or 5 seconds to open itself and load an rsrc file. (Obviously that means Constructor is a real hog!) -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/
