8464 :: Issue with passL

• mantielero (orginal) [2021-09-27T16:19:12+02:00] view original

  I am trying to compile against a library but it is not finding it:

  
  error while loading shared libraries: liboccutils.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
  Run

  I am using:

  {.passL: "-L/usr/local/lib/ -loccutils".}
  Run

  The file /usr/local/lib/liboccutils.so exists and using LD_LIBRARY_PATH works:

  
  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib
  Run

  So I am probably misusing passL.

  You need to add -Wl,-rpath to linker options.

  
  const libPath  = "/usr/local/lib"
  const libName =) "-loccutils"
  
  {.passL: "-L" &  libPath}
  {.passL: "-Wl,-rpath," &  libPath}
  {.passL: "-l" &  libName}
  Run

  Thanks a lot. It worked.

  For the record, just fixing a few typos:

  
  const libPath  = "/usr/local/lib"
  const libName = "occutils"
  {.passL: "-L" &  libPath.}
  {.passL: "-Wl,-rpath," &  libPath.}
  {.passL: "-l" &  libName.}
  Run
