[Mac OS X 10.2.8] Examples fail to build due to LD error
--------------------------------------------------------
Key: STDCXX-116
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-116
Project: STDCXX
Type: Bug
Components: Build
Environment: Mac OS X 10.2.8/Darwin 6.8 with GCC 3.1
Reporter: Andrew Black
When attempting to build the examples as part of the make sequence, I recieve
the following messages
gcc -c -I/Volumes/Orion/Work/stdcxx/include/ansi -D_RWSTD_USE_CONFIG
-I/Users/blackaw/Documents/Work/stdcxx//include
-I/Volumes/Orion/Work/stdcxx/include
-I/Volumes/Orion/Work/stdcxx/examples/include -pedantic -nostdinc++ -W -Wall
-Wcast-qual -Winline -Wshadow -Wwrite-strings -Wno-long-long -Wcast-align
/Volumes/Orion/Work/stdcxx/examples/manual/accum.cpp
gcc accum.o -o accum -L/Users/blackaw/Documents/Work/stdcxx//lib -lstd
-lsupc++ -lm
ld: archive: /Users/blackaw/Documents/Work/stdcxx//lib/libstd.a has no table of
contents, add one with ranlib(1) (can't load from it)
make[2]: *** [accum] Error 1
make[1]: [examples] Error 2 (ignored)
The obvious solution is to call ranlib as part of the make process for the
library, but this would involve altering the make proccess for the config
tests, library and test library, along with requiring conditional logic to
protect other platforms/compilers from this step that would likely cause
problems.
Looking at the man page for ranlib on my linux box here, it appears that a
better solution could be to define ARFLAGS for gcc as being '-s', though I
could potentially see problems emerging were this to be an unconditional
definition.
I will try this solution tonight.
