Thanks for the suggestion Chris, I'm using Redhat7.1 (with all updates & patches)
My conf-ld looks like this: gcc-s I/usr/include/mysql -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient This will be used to link .o files into an executable By comparing your conf-ld file to mine, mine appears to be missing a -L and missing a path to the -lmysqlclient so I tried editing the file to add the "missing links" - but I got the same result. Any other thoughts? regis On Mon, 2002-08-26 at 19:24, chris wrote: > In Solaris, you have to use a -R to compile in the path to the linked lib... > I didn't see what OS you were using but maybe this'll help you out: > > mail4:~/devel/ucspi-chris 8% cat conf-cc > gcc -O2 -I/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql > > conf-ld > gcc -s -I/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql -R/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql -L/usr > /local/mysql/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient > > This will be used to link .o files into an executable. > > hope it helps. > > Chris Bunnell > Senior Engineer - Network Implementation > Avantac Technologies, Inc. - Formerly Sonic Internet Services > 9719 Lincoln Village Drive #503 > Sacramento, CA. 95827 > (916) 854-5940 > www.avantac.com > Powered by Sun.
