CodeLite IDE

Hi there guys,

just installed CL. Looks great and way better than C::B. However, I just started creating a Dynamic C++ Library (it barely has 2 classes so far), but cannot get it to compile. The following log is issued:

/bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/make -j8 -e -f Makefile'
----------Building project:[ InsomniaEngine - Debug ]----------
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/dccdn/Repositories/InsomniaEngine/InsomniaEngine'

Makefile:4: recipe for target 'All' failed

I can't really find where I've gone wrong if I have, but I'm guessing it has something to do with the line:

/usr/bin/ld: ./Debug/Stage.cpp.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.bss' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

Can anyone help me out on how to solve this problem?

Thanks a lot beforehand

Hi,

/usr/bin/ld: ./Debug/Stage.cpp.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.bss' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

I'm sure you're right, at least for a 64bit build.

Did you try adding -fPIC to the Project Settings > Linker field?

Regards,

David

This won't help. He needs to recompile the sources with -fPIC, i.e. put it in the "Project Settings->Compiler->C++ compiler options" field

Damn, it worked. Thanks a lot guys. Looks like I'm gonna love this IDE.
