Hi everybody,
I am trying to use libtool and libltdl to develop a C++ library (named
Ceylan) that provides some services, including plugin support. Despite
the reading of libltdl documentation and of the autobook, I am facing
link problems with the unit test (testCeylanPlugin) for plugin support
(test plugin is ceylan-test-plugin.la, it would need some other services
provided by libCeylan.la), as if the STL symbols could not be found
despite the various flags :
"""
creating .libs/testCeylanPluginS.c
generating symbol list for `testCeylanPlugin'
extracting global C symbols from
`testCeylanPlugin.o'

(one thing I do not understand is why
"/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.6/libstdc++.so" is specified
this way, I would have expected
"-L/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.6 -lstdc++"; I tried to run
that command manually but the link error remained)
In configure.in I have indeed
"""
AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
AM_PROG_LIBTOOL
"""
but libtool says :
"""
*** Warning: Linking the executable testCeylanPlugin against the
loadable module
*** ceylan-test-plugin.so is not portable!
libtool: link: warning: `AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN' not used. Assuming no dlopen
support.
"""
In my Makefile.am I have :
"""
testCeylanPlugin_SOURCES = testCeylanPlugin.cc
testCeylanPlugin_LDFLAGS = -export-dynamic -no-undefined -dlpreopen
force -dlopen self -dlopen ceylan-test-plugin.la

testCeylanPlugin_DEPENDENCIES = $(LIBLTDL) ceylan-test-plugin.la
lib_LTLIBRARIES = ceylan-test-plugin.la
ceylan_test_plugin_la_SOURCES = ceylan-test-plugin.cc
ceylan_test_plugin_la_LDFLAGS = -no-undefined -module -avoid-version
"""
I tried various combinations (specifying convenience/installable
libltdl, declaring the plugin with extern "C", using a pure-C plugin,
playing with the numerous link options in Makefile.am) with no luck for
the moment.
Does anybody have a clue, or know the proper way to set up this ?
Thanks in advance,
regards,
Olivier.
PS: the desired layout would be : libCeylan (which is C++) can load any
plug-in, including C++ ones, including plug-in needing some services
provided by libCeylan and the STL
