Formaline undefined reference issue
Issue #567
closed
Hi,
I am trying to build a new config on Ranger and the compilation stopped in the linking phase with output of this sort:
~/Cactus/configs/cigr/lib/libthorn_Formaline-cactus-source.a(thorn.o):(.rodata+0x0): undefined reference to `cactus_data_0000_ADM'
It seems to be related to formaline. How do do I clean up previous Formaline files? I tried a gmake *-realclean but this error didn't go away.
Thanks.

I confirm that this is a problem. It appears that there is a bad interaction between Formaline and "ar". I hope to commit a solution soon.

It seems that "ar" does not store directory names of archive members, and make can't be taught to create files with names that contain the thorn name in a directory that contains the thorn name. Therefore I'm undoing my previous commit.

A make clean or make realclean will delete all of Formaline's state. Alternatively, you can directly delete the directory configs/cigr/scratch/Formaline.
Can you look for the string cactus_data_0000_ADM in the *.c files in the Formaline directory? It should appear twice, once defining a data structure, once referencing it. Both *.c files should have corresponding *.o files.
Also, I committed a change to Formaline recently. Are you up-to-date?
