<my system info> Pentium 90MHz, 80meg ram, 2gig hard drive, Slackware Linux, rather current kernel (whatever is the last Slackware release) other system does the same thing is P 75MHz 32mb ram 2 gig hdd same OS Hi, this certainly is a recurring error for me with all C archives that I attempt to use, so this may be trivial, however OpenSSL has given me the most trouble. Since I use the C++ language and compile with g++, whenever it gets to the part of making the binary with all my and OpenSSL archives the compiler spits out a ton of "Undefined References" errors when searching the OpenSSL archives. This does not happen when compiling C code so I'm quite sure that the OpenSSL archives are part of a good installation. Like I said I've had this problem before with other C code with my C++ stuff, but it was never so difficult to get around. I have managed to take all the object files from the OpenSSL distribution and create my own archive and I can successfully compile with g++ then, however that brings into question of whether there are duplicate instances of a function and whether the correct one is grabbed from the archive during compilation. Anyhow from this I'm figuring that maybe the archives have references to functions in shared libraries which I could be forgetting on the g++ command line therefore my command line looks like: g++ -o MyProgram mylib.a moreofmylib.a /usr/local/ssl/lib/libcrypto.a /usr/local/ssl/lib/libssl.a note from this call I'm only using "libcrypto.a" "libssl.a" which is the only stuff I know of from the OpenSSL installation. Maybe there might be a "-lOpenSSL" library that I should be specifing on the command line? I haven't seen anything... Hopefully this is all that it is. Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
