Re: Unable to get a plugin working

[Hristina Fidanoska]

Hello,

Last night I recompiled the GCC replacing it with a little bit older
version (gcc-4.5-20100121)
and the plugin still can not be loaded, but with a different error:

cc1plus: error: Cannot load plugin ../libimo/libimo.so

../libimo/libimo.so: undefined symbol: _ZN11NodeFactory10CreateNodeEN4BEEV4KindERKNS0_7ASTNodeES4_RKSt6vectorIS2_SaIS2_EE

make: *** [default] Error 1

Now I have set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the directory my newly
installed libstdc++ is located (thank you for your hint!), but the
output above remains unchanged.

Would you suggest that I try to install again the newest GCC version
(for which I got a less cryptic error) or is there some workaround for
the current error?

After I would have reinstalled GCC, will I have to set the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH  each time I try to link the plugin? Or is there a
long-term fix during the GCC compilation process to avoid these errors?

Best regards,
Tina

"c++filt _ZN11NodeFactory10CreateNodeEN4BEEV4KindERKNS0_7ASTNodeES4_RKSt6vectorIS2_SaIS2_EE"
says
NodeFactory::CreateNode(BEEV::Kind, BEEV::ASTNode const&, BEEV::ASTNode const&, std::vector<BEEV::ASTNode, std::allocator<BEEV::ASTNode> > const&)

So the missing function is NodeFactory::CreateNode, whatever that is.

if it is helpful in a way or another...

(the _ZXXX name is a "mangled" name. In C++ the compiler encodes functions
and methods this way because the name is not enough to identify a function/method,
you need the parameters too.)

Hello,

The code of the plugin does not contain a function "NodeFactory". If it 
is a GCC function, I can not find it. Setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to 
point to the directory where I installed libstdc++ did not have effect. 
The plugin used to work though when I had an older Ubuntu 9.10 kernel 
installed (the currently installed is 2.6.31).
I am not sure if it is a good idea to downgrade the kernel, it is like 
an overkill, but if that is the only thing I could do to get the plugin 
work, then I have to do it.
Are there any other good ideas/suggestion for solving the linker problem?

Regards,
Tina

Unable to get a plugin working

[Hristina Fidanoska]

Hello,

For the use of a plugin in our project, I have installed the latest GCC 
version (gcc-4.5-20100211)
and I configured it using the options:

  --enable-languages=c,c++ --enable-plugin --prefix=/opt/<plugin>

Now after compiling the plugin, I get an error when linking:

cc1plus: error: Cannot load plugin ../libimo/libimo.so

/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.14' not found (required by ../libimo/libimo.so)

make: *** [default] Error 1


Browsing threads for similar problems, I read that a quick fix would be 
to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the directory where libstdc++ is 
located,  in my case

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.13

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6



However, this did not solve the problem.
Any suggestions?


Best regards,
Tina

LD_LIBRARY_PATH must include the name of a directory, not the name of
a file.  That directory will be searched first for shared libraries.

In your case you want to set it to the directory where the newly built
libstdc++.so was installed.  This will be somewhere under the --prefix
option you used when you configured gcc.
