Hi All
I have linked Tcl and Tk statically as following while linking with
gcc 443
/xxx/tcl_libs/8.5.9/lib/libtk8.5.a /xxx/tcl_libs/8.5.9/lib/
libtcl8.5.a
but when i tried to link it dynamically as following
-L/xxx/tcl_libs/8.5.9/lib/ -ltcl8.5 -L/xxx/tcl_libs/8.5.9/lib/ -ltk8.5
I am getting following error
/tools/linux64/gcc-4.4.3/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/
4.4.3/../../../../x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: tkMain.o: in
function main:../../..//tkMain.c:33: error: undefined reference to
'TclInitSubsystems'
One point when i tried to link tcl static an tk dynamic it works. I
checked it by ldd.
Please help.
Try moving them to /usr/lib to see if it is a path specification problem. If by doing so it works, you need to check how you are specifying ld paths.

This is probably related to
c++ reading fits file using ccfits
which was never answered.
Anyway, I hope my question is easier to reproduce. There is an example program for CCfits at:
http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/fitsio/CCfits/html/cookbook.html
I am attempting to compile this using:
g++ cookbook.cpp -o cookbook -lCCfits -lcfitsio
The link fails for every CCfits function in the file:
/tmp/cc7hVaju.o: In function main':
cookbook.cpp:(.text+0x14): undefined reference towriteImage()'
cookbook.cpp:(.text+0x31): undefined reference to writeAscii()'
cookbook.cpp:(.text+0x4e): undefined reference towriteBinary()'
cookbook.cpp:(.text+0x6b): undefined reference to copyHDU()'
cookbook.cpp:(.text+0x88): undefined reference toreadHeader()'
cookbook.cpp:(.text+0xa5): undefined reference to readImage()'
cookbook.cpp:(.text+0xc2): undefined reference toreadTable()'
cookbook.cpp:(.text+0xdf): undefined reference to readExtendedSyntax()'
cookbook.cpp:(.text+0xfc): undefined reference toselectRows()'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
I have tried this with the CCfits package that comes with Ubuntu. I have also tried installing the package myself. Same error.
Strangely, I get similar messages if I do not include the libraries on the command line (i.e., "g++ cookbook.cpp -o cookbook"). The one difference is that I also get this error:
/tmp/ccMVMkSB.o: In function CCfits::FITS::setVerboseMode(bool)':
cookbook.cpp:(.text._ZN6CCfits4FITS14setVerboseModeEb[_ZN6CCfits4FITS14setVerboseModeEb]+0xf): undefined reference toCCfits::FITS::s_verboseMode'
This must be a clue, right? Seems to say that the libraries I have named, although they exist, do not contain all the functions I need.
Thanks for any help,
Charles
Not sure if you got a suitable answer to this question but as far as I can tell the main issue is that you are not including the definitions to the function signatures. These are usually defined in the header files of c++ libraries.
For example, if your library is installed in "/usr/local" on a UNIX system then the header files will be installed in the location "/usr/local/include/CCfits". The corresponding lib files will be installed at "/usr/local/lib". The important thing is that the compiler does not know this and you need to inform it of these locations.
g++ cookbook.cpp -o cookbook -I /usr/local/include/CCfits -L /usr/local/lib -lCCfits -lcfitsio
The "-I /usr/local/include/CCfits" flag and the given parameter inform g++ of the location of the header files that it is looking for. The "-L /usr/local/lib" flag and the given parameter inform g++ of the location of the library files. It is important to note that g++ will search in the standard location for libraries on in your environment as well this is just giving it more locations to search. There are in fact rules for what it should do if it finds multiple libraries which are the same in different locations but I don't explicitly remember those.
Also to be safe, ensure that the libraries are loaded into memory by the OS. These are shared libraries not static so they are not stored into the executable file. This won't make a difference when compiling the source but will prevent the successful execution of the executable. To ensure that the OS has loaded the library into memory run the following command:
sudo ldconfig

I'm using Code Blocks IDE and I want to install Tiled Map Editor for SFML. So, I downloaded the source and imported it to my project. Unfortunately, the build finished with an error due to missing zlib library. I downloaded it and built again. This time I received an error that reads:
undefined reference to `inflateInit2_'|
undefined reference to `inflateEnd'|
undefined reference to `inflateEnd'|
On the Internet I found the advice to join the linker command -lz, but the compiler refuses throwing the error: cannot find -lz. Does anyone know how to fix it?
Use the option -L<path> to tell the linker where to find libz.so.x.y.z.
For your reference: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Directory-Options.html
you can see where your zlib is installed like this :
/sbin/ldconfig -p| grep libz.so
it should find one or more entries if installed, otherwise it will return blank line
I just downloaded http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=414392 and set include/bin/lib folders to my compiler(tdm-gcc 4.8.1) in dev c++.
I can use functions from mysql.h (#include )
But i cant compile program.
bcoz:
undefined reference to `mysql_init'
undefined reference to `mysql_select_db'
what i have to do?
You've got the '-L' arguments including the lib directories, but you don't appear to have a '-l' argument linking the actual library. I think what you want to add is '-lmysqlclient' or something similar. Please see the following page for more information:

I have built GMP for MinGW. The IDE I'm using is Code::Blocks. I don't have any problems with C functions of GMP. But I'm having problem with C++. The program I tried to run is as simple as this,
#include<iostream>
#include<gmpxx.h>
using namespace std;
main()
{
mpz_class a;
a=12345;
cout<<"value"<<a<<"\n";
return 0;
}
And the Errors I get are
F:\Compilers\C_Libraries\GMP\lib\libgmpxx.a(osmpz.o):osmpz.cc|| undefined reference to `__gmpz_get_str'|
F:\Compilers\C_Libraries\GMP\lib\libgmpxx.a(osfuns.o):osfuns.cc:(.rdata+0x1c)||undefined reference to `__gmp_asprintf_memory'|
F:\Compilers\C_Libraries\GMP\lib\libgmpxx.a(osfuns.o):osfuns.cc:(.rdata+0x20)||undefined reference to `__gmp_asprintf_reps'|
F:\Compilers\C_Libraries\GMP\lib\libgmpxx.a(osdoprnti.o):osdoprnti.cc|| undefined reference to `__gmp_doprnt_integer'|
F:\Compilers\C_Libraries\GMP\lib\libgmpxx.a(osdoprnti.o):osdoprnti.cc|| undefined reference to `__gmp_asprintf_final'|
||=== Build finished: 5 errors, 0 warnings ===|
Now, some additional data:
I don't have any problem with C functions. And also, if I remove cout<< statement the file compiles and runs fine. The problem is probably with overloaded operators.
libgmpxx.a and libgmp.a are linked with compiler. It can be seen in the error messages too...
The problem is probably with the libgmpxx.a alone. So, I built the Library again, but the files are same.
I used this tutorial build GMP with MSYS for MinGW. http://www.cs.nyu.edu/exact/core/gmp/ and http://suchideas.com/journal/2007/07/installing-gmp-on-windows/
The version of GMP I'm using is 5.0.4.
So, what I want to know is, what could be the problem? And how could it be solved?
And, if unsolvable and if you have the working files for 5.0.4 version, please share it. :(
I suspect the command to build your program specifies the libgmp* libraries in the wrong order. Make sure the libgmp.a library is specified after the libgmpxx.a library:
-lgmpxx -lgmp
If they are specified in the other order, then when pulling in dependencies from libgmpxx.a library, the libgmp.a library won't be searched.
From the ld linker's docs on the -l option:
The linker will search an archive only once, at the location where it
is specified on the command line. If the archive defines a symbol
which was undefined in some object which appeared before the archive
on the command line, the linker will include the appropriate file(s)
from the archive. However, an undefined symbol in an object appearing
later on the command line will not cause the linker to search the
archive again.
See the -( option for a way to force the linker to search archives
multiple times.
You may list the same archive multiple times on the command line.
I'm trying to set up libusb API on my OS. I downloaded libusb api on libusb.org. I followed the standard installation procedure:
cd into directory
./configure
make
make check //without errors
make install
Then I launched Eclipse C/C++ and copied some code from the tutorial found on the internet. But when trying to build it I got following output:
main.cpp:(.text+0x19): undefined reference to `libusb_init'
main.cpp:(.text+0x76): undefined reference to `libusb_set_debug'
main.cpp:(.text+0x8a): undefined reference to `libusb_get_device_list'

I have libusb.so in /lib and also I have usb.h in /usr/local/include and the link for the .so and libusb.a in /usr/local/lib.
Also the #include inside the code is correct.
I know that problem is in linker but I, kind of, cannot make it work :)
I'm using Fedora 15 operating system and gcc 4.6.0 20110603 (Red Hat 4.6.0-10) version compiler.
So what could I do to resolve these undefined references? Thanks very much for help :)
I did face the same problem. But I was able to solve it by adding '-lusb-1.0' to the linker.
e.g : g++ myfile.cpp -lusb-1.0
you have to set the library linker flag for compilation in the linker,
you can get a full list in the console by executing
pkg-config --list-all
These are the libraries which you have installed on your system and you have to link against the ones you want to use.
so in your example it is libusb so you do
pkg-config --libs libusb
there should be the output
-lusb
or
-lusb-1.0
This gives you the flag you have to pass to the linker. e.g.
g++ myfile.cpp -lusb[-1.0]
Then you edit the configuration of the project and search for the linkerflags, there should be a textfield for that somewhere in the buildoptions. i'm not quite shure where to find it but googling for it suggested:
Project -> Properties -> C/C++
Build -> Miscellaneous -> flags
After you found it, just add the linker flag in the textfield and you should be fine.
EDIT
since my answer is the accepted one, I also added the other flag that seems to work for a lot of people.
What is your linker command line? You need to have -lusb in the linking command; just having the header included won't work.
I don't use Eclipse C/C++ but I am pretty sure the reason is the same that I faced some while ago when setting up a C project in Netbeans.
It's not enough to have the #include in your code and the library at the right location - you also have to tell Eclipse where to look for them and how to use them. This turorial shows you how to set it up in Eclipse.
