Re: What should be a simple linking problem

To answer my own question --

I originally built the libSSCE.a static library using the original settings of "C Dialects to Precompile" (ie, C Objective-C C++ Objective-C++) and "Compile Sources As" (According to File Type). Apparently with these settings, the compiler did some name mangling of everything not explicitly declared extern "C". Even though ALL of the files in the library had file type .c.

Changing the settings to "C Dialects to Precompile" = c and "Compile Sources As" = C caused all of the names in the library to be non- mangled. And this solved the problem.

I did, indeed, include the header file in the compilation of SSCE_TempLexName.cpp and the result was an unmangled name. Indeed, using nm, I see that the name is "_SSCE_TempLexName".

Unfortunately, it appears that the C-language library is looking for "SSCE_TempLexName" (i.e., without the leading '_'). So there IS an incompatibility between the C-language library and the object file from my C++ project.

How do I combat this problem? Have I built the libSCCE.a file incorrectly?? I have sources and can make changes if appropriate, but I don't know what changes to make.

Cheers,
