Hi, I am not really sure that this a question for this list but maybe there is a kind sole that has the answer over here
I have a Autools based project that I *really* want to compile both on Linux and Windows using gcc (mingw on Windows) using Autotools. I get these warnings: *** Warning: linker path does not have real file for library -lpthread. *** I have the capability to make that library automatically link in when *** you link to this library. But I can only do this if you have a *** shared version of the library, which you do not appear to have *** because I did check the linker path looking for a file starting *** with libpthread and none of the candidates passed a file format test *** using a file magic. Last file checked: /home/jkr/src/mingw-cross-env-2.10/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-mingw32/4.4.0/../../../../i686-pc-mingw32/lib//libpthread.a *** The inter-library dependencies that have been dropped here will be *** automatically added whenever a program is linked with this library *** or is declared to -dlopen it. *** Since this library must not contain undefined symbols, *** because either the platform does not support them or *** it was explicitly requested with -no-undefined, *** libtool will only create a static version of it. Are these warning something I should/can fix? What is it they are trying to tell me? If they are fixable, how? TIA -- Groeten, Joost Kraaijeveld Askesis B.V.
