问题
I've spent quite a bit of time trying to get an expat based sample program to compile.
I was receiving the following error message when I tried to compile
gcc -Wall -lexpat line.c -o blah
line.c: In function ‘main’:
line.c:99:8: warning: format ‘%d’ expects argument of type ‘int’, but argument 3 has type ‘XML_Size’ [-Wformat]
/tmp/ccUa3vfD.o: In function `printcurrent':

line.c:(.text+0x2ca): undefined reference to `XML_ErrorString'
line.c:(.text+0x2d8): undefined reference to `XML_GetCurrentLineNumber'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
I had already run the following commands: sudo apt-get install expat libexpat1 libexpat1-dev libxmltok1-dev
So I messed around for ages, trying to get the error message to go away so I could compile this (simple) little program, but to no avail.
Eventually, out of sheer randomness, I decided to switch to a Virtual Terminal.
I ran exactly the same command, this time it worked without a problem.
Can anyone tell me why this is? Is there something I need to run in order to refresh the library paths?
回答1:
The linker line (i.e. the flags you give with -l and your input file names) are order-dependent. Libraries are only used to define functions used on their left side, but not on their right. Use:
gcc -Wall line.c -lexpat -o blah
See the question library is linked but reference is undefined for more information.
