I'm using mingw-w64 (gcc 7.3.0) and when I compile any C++ program using the following command:
g++ file.cpp -fsanitize=undefined
I get the following error:
...mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lubsan
I'm able to successfully compile and run my programs if I remove the -fsanitize=undefined flag, though. After some research I found out that this means the library ubsan (Undefined Behavior Sanitizer) is missing, but I couldn't find anything about the library. How do I fix this?
This is well known issue with mingw see for instance this msys github issue. No proper solution known but there are several WAs.
Install WSL, ubuntu over WSL and you will have ubsan inside it
Build GCC under Windows from source enabling sanitizers build. They are present in GCC sources they are just not here in mingw.
Use -fsanitize=undefined -fsanitize-undefined-trap-on-error to just not use libubsan rich logging capabilities but get it trap on undefined instruction.
Hope one of this helps.

I working on trying to compile a code written in C++ and Root on my Mac. The code is from a colleague who works on a Linux laptop. In addition to the different OS's, I have both a different version of gcc and Root than her and I am not sure which difference is causing the code not to compile on my machine.
She has g++ 4.8 and root 5.(something). I have gcc 5.3.0 and root 6.06/02.
She has given to me the a line of code she uses to get her machine to compile the code
gcc -Wall -o executable_name code_name.cc `root-config --cflags --glibs`
But when I write on my machine, Terminal gives me the error
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-stdlib=libc++’
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-stdlib=libc++’
I need help generating the correct line to get gcc to compile the code.
The problem here is two-fold: You're on OSX and you are using GCC.
The problem with this is that root-config assumes that since you're on OSX you will be using the OSX-standard Clang compiler which have the -stdlib flag. Since you're not using Clang, but GCC (which doesn't have this flag) you get an error.
You have two possible solutions: Use clang++ instead of g++ to compile and build (requires you to install the compiler if it's not installed already, it comes with Xcode), or to modify the root-config script so it doesn't add -stdlib=libc++. There might be environment variables or flags that the root-config script checks that alter the behavior, but I don't know anything about the script, you have to check it for that.
I'm trying to get the gfortran compiler with cygwin. When attempting to compile a hello world program, I get the following error:
gfortran: fatal error: -fuse-linker-plugin, but cyglto_plugin.dll not found
compilation terminated.
To install the compiler, I used the cygwin setup and selected
gcc-fortran: GNU compiler collection
libgfortran3: GCC fortran runtime library
I also mistakenly selected the toolchains for mingw, even though I don't have the mingw compiler (as far as I'm aware). g++, which I installed awhile ago, works fine.
What do I need to do to compile/find the library?
It is because of the gcc and gfortran versions are not same, try checking that. If so, do the following
$ apt-cyg remove gcc-fortran
$ apt-cyg install gcc-fortran
I have recently installed GCC 4.9.2 (port name gcc49) through MacPorts. I am quite happy with its new features such as colorized diagnostics and C++1y/C++14 support improvements, etc.
However, since I started to compile code using GCC 4.9.2, I realized that it is not generating debug symbol directory *.dSYM and gdb says "no debugging symbols found" when I try to debug a program I compiled with -g flag.
Is this a MacPorts specific bug or is there a problem with GCC 4.9?
Thanks
It is not a MacPorts specific issue. MacPorts doesn't really do much to customize the gcc ports.
If you want to create a dSYM bundle and strip your executable, you should just do something like:
gcc-mp-4.9 -g3 -c example.c
gcc-mp-4.9 example.o -o example
dsymutil --out example.dSYM example
strip -S -x example
As a side note, if you want C++11/C++14 support, I suggest you use the clang-3.5 port as that will allow you to use libc++ from the system instead of libstdc++ from MacPorts (and allow you to use system and MacPorts C++ libraries rather than just the STL). Also, lldb is really the preferred debugger for OS X these days.
Recently I have noticed that GCC does not generate object (*.o) files when compiling with '-c'. It does not issue any errors or warnings. I have run it with '-verbose' but it shows nothing out of the ordinary.
Running under Windows:
gcc -Wall -c source_file.c
I have also tried compiling with '-verbose' to display detailed information
gcc -Wall -verbose -c source_file.c
It should produce 'source_file.o' but it doesn't. Any idea what's going on?
The issue has been resolved. Reinstalling GCC (mingw) fixed the problem. It is possible the problem came about because I tried to install the 64-bit version of GCC (Mingw-w64) to top of the 32-bit version...
I've recently built libc++ from scratch as my prject needs some features that are not yet implemnted in libstdc++.
I try to compile the hello world program located in src/main.cpp with line
clang -Wall -stdlib=libc++ -std=c++11 -c src/main.cpp -obuild/main.o
and the build suceeds
Then I link it with
clang -lc++ build/main.o -o qasix
and the linking suceeds too.
But when I run the program with
./qasix
I get the following error:
./qasix: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/libc++.so.1: undefined symbol: _ZTVN10__cxxabiv120__si_class_type_infoE
I would like to know why this is occurring and also how to fix it.
I am on Xubuntu 13.10 if that's of any help.
PS: This problem popped up yesterday. Earlier other libc++ programs would compile fine.
This started when I did a debug build of a program with the -g flag and it compiled and ran fine, but all later programs complained about this symbol lookup failure. Please help.
it appears that you need the support library "libc++abi". It provides things like low-level exception support, type_info support, etc.
For Ubuntu (as opposed to Xubuntu), it appears that you can get it here: http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/core/saucy/universe/base/libc++abi-dev
