Libtool list, I am having serious trouble compiling a fourier transform shared library (http://www.fftw.org) on Solaris which uses libtool for linking. I have successfully built the shared library on Linux and Irix and I can build it as a static library on Solaris, but not shared. I have contacted the authors of the library who can build it on their Solaris setup and a Sourceforge Solaris machine without issue. I have so far failed with Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 on independent machines - the latter had a completely fresh install of *everything* in an attempt to isolate the problem.
I am using the following toolset: GNU gcc 3.3 GNU ld 2.11.2 GNU make 3.80 The libtool version used by FFTW is 1.43. The code compiles without problems but the final linking step fails with errors about unknown file types relating to *.al files. I configure and make with the following commands: make distclean ./configure --enable-shared --prefix=/homes/perforce/utils_install/SUN/fftw- 3.0.1-SUN-DEBUG.GCC3 make The pertinent section of the output is: /usr/ccs/bin/ld -G -h libfftw3.so.3 -o .libs/libfftw3.so.3.0.1 -z allextract kernel/.libs/libkernel.al simd/.libs/libsimd.al dft/.libs/libdft.al dft/codelets/.libs/libdft_codelets.al dft/codelets/standard/.libs/libdft_standard.al dft/codelets/inplace/.libs/libdft_inplace.al dft/k7/.libs/libdft_k7.al dft/k7/codelets/.libs/libdft_codelets_k7.al dft/simd/.libs/libdft_simd.al dft/simd/codelets/.libs/libdft_codelets_simd.al rdft/.libs/librdft.al rdft/codelets/.libs/librdft_codelets.al rdft/codelets/r2hc/.libs/librdft_codelets_r2hc.al rdft/codelets/hc2r/.libs/librdft_codelets_hc2r.al rdft/codelets/r2r/.libs/librdft_codelets_r2r.al reodft/.libs/libreodft.al api/.libs/libapi.al -z defaultextract -lm -lc ld: fatal: file simd/.libs/libsimd.al: unknown file type ld: fatal: file dft/k7/.libs/libdft_k7.al: unknown file type ld: fatal: file dft/simd/.libs/libdft_simd.al: unknown file type I don't know what an *.al file - and clearly neither does the linker. I'd be most grateful of any suggestions that get me moving again on this - its over a month since I first encountered it.
