Hi all,
This appears similar to an earlier post: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/335928/linux-gcc-linking-ld-cannot-find-a-library-that-exists But to the best of my knowledge, it's not exactly the same situation. The following command works:
$g++ -I../../include/ -lboost_program_options-mt rips-zigzag.cpp
However this doesn't:
$ g++ -I../../include/ rips-zigzag.cpp
/tmp/ccLvW2Rq.o: In function `process_command_line_options
--snip--
undefined reference to `boost::program_options::options_description::m_default_line_length'
--snip--
The library is present in the so cache:
$ ldconfig -p | grep boost_program_options
libboost_program_options-mt.so.1.37.0 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libboost_program_options-mt.so.1.37.0
libboost_program_options-mt.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libboost_program_options-mt.so
And here it is from /usr/lib:
akshan@akshan-laptop:~/work/comptop/Dionysus$ ls -l /usr/lib/*program_options*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 798686 2009-03-26 19:28 /usr/lib/libboost_program_options-mt.a
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 37 2009-10-13 21:09 /usr/lib/libboost_program_options-mt.so -> libboost_program_options-mt.so.1.37.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 299224 2009-03-26 19:28 /usr/lib/libboost_program_options-mt.so.1.37.0
Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Aravind.
