Linking problem with netbeans, ubuntu 12.04
Added by Malin Edvardsen almost 12 years ago
Hi!
So, I have created a NetBeans project for my Wt application, but I keep getting linker errors
g -lwthttp -lwt -o dist/Debug/GNU-Linux-x86/test build/Debug/GNU-Linux-x86/Home.o build/Debug/GNU-Linux-x86/main.o -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/lib
build/Debug/GNU-Linux-x86/Home.o: In function `Home':
/work/myWittyTest/test/Home.cpp:11: undefined reference to `Wt::WApplication::WApplication(Wt::WEnvironment const&, Wt::WtLibVersion)'
/work/myWittyTest/test/Home.cpp:13: undefined reference to `Wt::WString::WString(char const*, Wt::CharEncoding)'
/work/myWittyTest/test/Home.cpp:13: undefined reference to `Wt::WApplication::setTitle(Wt::WString const&)'
.....
(have tried this with and without -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/lib)
I think that parts of what might have ruined things for me, is that I started out by using apt-get install to get Wt. But then I got some errors with
#include
So I tried installing wt-3.3.0 from the source, and now it looks like there is something off with my libraries. (yes, I did try apt-get remove all the wt packages I initially installed, still no fun)
Any idea what I am missing here (probably lots of information, bu tell me what you need, and I'll provide it for you ;)
I am using the default netbeans makefile, no funky business

Hi,
what says aptitude of the state of the installment, e.g.:
$ aptitude search witty
Please check if there are any wt-libs in the lib dirs, e.g. /usr/local/lib
$ updatedb && locate libwt

that last part was not supposed to be a numbered list :P
just wanted to mark that the text was comments, not actual output from the command
RE: Linking problem with netbeans, ubuntu 12.04 - Added by Stefan Lanz almost 12 years ago
There are the libs from source and from the package manager installed.
The libs in /usr/lib and /usr/lib/debug/ were installed via apt, the ones in /usr/local/lib (the default path) from source.
Your linker command
g++ -lwthttp -lwt -o dist/Debug/GNU-Linux-x86/test build/Debug/GNU-Linux-x86/Home.o build/Debug/GNU-Linux-x86/main.o -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/lib
states that you want to use the wthttp server, which you only installed from source -> /usr/local/lib/libwthttp.so
You can see it's missing in /usr/lib/ where apt-get install libwthttp32 would it be placed. witty depends on libwthttp32, so I assume you removed it somehow.
/usr/lib and /usr/local/lib are usually lib paths you don't need to pass to the linker. As the linker searches these paths you can get a lib mixture with your command above.
Try to remove your installed packages via apt:
apt-get --auto-remove remove witty*
Verify with my first two commands if the libs are removed and just the ones from source are still there and then try your link-command again (maybe with -L/usr/local/lib)
Good luck.

Addendum!
Build the project again not just linking.

but a clean build still fails :/
(and yes, I have added "#include " etc ;) )
RE: Linking problem with netbeans, ubuntu 12.04 - Added by Malin Edvardsen almost 12 years ago
WAIT!
after doing all these steps (removing apt-get installed packages and the old lib files, did that by running dpkg ---get-selections | grep deinstall | sed 's/deinstall/\lpurge/' | sudo dpkg ---set-selections; sudo dpkg -Pa fyi), I now get that my #includes no longer find the Wt/.. files :) (it found them before)
It may not sound like a good thing, but I think it is! I do tell the compiler to look in /usr/local/include, so I dont know why, but when I figure that out, I think this will work
(this has turned out to be a nice "lib cleanup thread", so I hope more people with these kinds of problems, will find it and get some tips from it, and with "it", I talk about Stefan)
RE: Linking problem with netbeans, ubuntu 12.04 - Added by Malin Edvardsen almost 12 years ago
Still no joy :/
The files are now found (had to just delete and re add one of the lines, some odd NetBeans thing I guess)
I removed the "test" project I copied output from before, but this screen shot is from my actual project. You will here see that the include files are found, but I still get the "undefined reference" when doing a clean build
(and yes, I still use both -lwthttp -lwt and -L/usr/local/lib)
RE: Linking problem with netbeans, ubuntu 12.04 - Added by Stefan Lanz almost 12 years ago
Regarding the #include<>: the include files from source installment resides in /usr/local/include/, which the compiler also usually searches for. If not, add -I/usr/local/include/ to the compiler.
But you don't have a compilation problem, aren't you? You have a linker problem.
Regards,
Stefan

RE: Linking problem with netbeans, ubuntu 12.04 - Added by Stefan Lanz almost 12 years ago
Ok, that's ok.
But I see you are building in "debug"-Mode, but the witty-libs in /usr/local/lib/ are just the optimized one unless you told cmake to build them, they get a "_d"-suffix. But for a quick test you can set your build mode in netbeans to "Release" and run the build.
It's important to separate debug-libs from optimized/release ones.

Tried to change to Release, re-add -lwthttp -lwt and -L/usr/local/lib, but still getting those "undefined reference to" :/ (was so happy when I read your last msg, and was sure that would be it :P guess I jinxed it..)

RE: Linking problem with netbeans, ubuntu 12.04 - Added by Malin Edvardsen almost 12 years ago
When writing the code, if I type "Wt::", all the correct options will pop up, so it do find the include files correctly atleast
RE: Linking problem with netbeans, ubuntu 12.04 - Added by Stefan Lanz almost 12 years ago
Yes, it's obvious a linking issue. You wouldn't compile successfully if there were a problem with the includes.
If you like you can give me your code, so that I can try to build on my machine, perhaps I get another idea to help.

Sometimes order matters in linker commands. Can you move your .o file to be the first argument of your link command?
Wim.
RE: Linking problem with netbeans, ubuntu 12.04 - Added by Malin Edvardsen almost 12 years ago
I am so sorry that I have waisted your time.. Again, at least this turned out to be a good "clean up" thread for libraries..
I am stupid, and added -lwthttp -lwt to the COMIPLER compilation line..
This would still add the options to the linker command, but like this
g -lwthttp -lwt -o dist/Debug/GNU-Linux-x86/test build/Debug/GNU-Linux-x86/Home.o build/Debug/GNU-Linux-x86/main.o -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/lib
Adding them to the LINKER compilation line, adds them like this
g -o build/Release/GNU-Linux-x86/generic/Home.o build/Release/GNU-Linux-x86/jobs/jobsView.o build/Release/GNU-Linux-x86/main.o -L/usr/local/lib -lwthttp -lwt -lboost_signals -lboost_system -lboost_filesystem
tip: add the liboost signals if you an error like this
..... is defined in DSO /usr/lib/libboost_signals.so.1.46.1 so try adding it to the linker command line
just figured I would type that in the command in case someone searches for it in the forum
tip2: the compilation lines I talk about are found by right clicking your project -> Properties -> Build -> Linker (or C Compiler if you want to put them the wrong place...)
finally, Stefan (and Wim)
Than you so much four all you help today! I really have appreciated it a lot! Would probably have given up if not for you :) So again, than you :D

If everything is fine now (no matter how long it took and which way was right), so I am glad and it was worth the time and resources :)

Are there any reasons to use VisualStudio over NetBeans when developing Wt applications? I rather prefer NetBeans in most cases, but can use VS if there is a benefit.

Or, for that matter, Xcode? Is there a preferred local development platform?

Do you guys use NetBeans or VisualStudio in house, or something else? I'm not sure which is ideal and would just like to know your preferences, if any. Do you also have a preferred distro, like one where you submit the Wt package yourselves?

We mostly use unix makefiles (emacs & vi), MSVS and Qt designer here. But we've also used xcode and eclipse in combination with Wt. And probably 90% of our project files (not only for Wt) are generated by cmake.
No experience with netbeans here afaik.
But apart from Wt itself, which uses cmake to generate its build system, you should be able to choose any development environment that works with your compiler/debugger/...
