Posted: Thu Aug 23, 2007 11:16 pm Post subject: A lot of linker errors |
|
|
This is just an example, but most of the time when I try to use a library, I get a few linker errors. This is what happens when I try to use the ini library from dprogramming.
This is the very simple code I'm using (which is from ini.d's unittest):
Code: |
import ini;
int main()
{
char[] inifile = "unittest.ini";
Ini ini;
ini = new Ini(inifile);
return 0;
}
|
And here is the output:
Code: |
> "C:\dmd\bin\dmd.exe" C:\dmd\packages\ini\examples\helloini.d ini.lib -I"C:\dmd\import"
C:\dmd\bin\..\..\dm\bin\link.exe helloini,,,ini.lib+user32+kernel32/noi;
OPTLINK (R) for Win32 Release 7.50B1

helloini.obj(helloini)
Error 42: Symbol Undefined _D3ini3Ini5_ctorMFAaZC3ini3Ini

I'm taking extra care to make sure ini.lib is in the lib/ directory, and ini.d is in the import/ directory. It also happens when I try to use irclib and splat, but I'm taking care of one problem at a time, haha.
Edit:
Also, the linker generates the same errors whether or not I include ini.lib, that's strange. |

Alright, I fixed the problem. I recompiled ini.d with the -c switch, and ran lib on it myself to generate my own ini.lib, and it now works fine. For anyone who runs into a similar problem (or this same one), this is for you: http://tinydinosaur.com/files/dini.zip.
I just zipped up ini.d, the new ini.lib, and a readme outlining the process. |

Since it's just one module, why not just compile it in with the rest of your project? It seems rather excessive to compile a single module into a separate library. _________________ The One With D | The One With Aldacron | D Bits |

I tried that, it had the same linker errors. I guess it was just the way dini was meant to be distributed, I'm not the creator of it so I don't know. |
