Re: problem making the project..

It seems that the copy of "which_lib" /usr/GNUstep/System/Makefiles/sparc/solaris2.8/which_lib was corrupted and would always core when attempting to resolve the libraries for linking. I did not compile all of the server side code, but I did replace this file with a new copy and compile and run AlarmSim, so this part of the problem seems to be solved. Please write to the recipients of this note to confirm or deny. Note that you should still get lots of relocation warnings when compiling like:
[J.P. Young]

warning: Text relocation remains                referenced
    against symbol                  offset      in file

__objc_class_name_NSData            0x844       WCAlarmSim.subproj/shared_obj/sp

Thanks for your help..

Thanks

Fedor,

Attached are the GNUmakefiles from AlarmSim and WCAlarmSim sub project for AlarmSim.

In general, we observed that this kind of errors are seen when ever we try to build any Tool, whereas building any Framework is fine without any error.

Please look at them and suggest the solution. If required, i can get you any other supported files for reference.

For both AlarmSim and WCAlarmSim projects, there are no Preamble / Postamble files.

Thanks,

kotesh

It doesn't appear that any libraries are getting included in the link line. It's very odd that that's happening. Perhaps you can send me the GNUmakefile from AlarmSim so I can see if there is anything wrong with it. (also the GNUmakefile.{preamble,postamble} if you have them.)

You report doesn't show enough information. Try to provide the entire make output

make > make.out 2>&1
