Compile generate 0 byte files on OS X

SGaist

Try change target for some other name. my_target should do it.

I tried this too but it doesn't change anything. Maybe a last idea, at the very beginning, I had an error :
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64
The solution I find was to add -stdlib=libstdc++ to qmake. Maybe there was another solution ?

Amott

I just realizze that I spoke too fast, my other project was working but it was to generate a .app not a lib...
I retried to create a lib step by step :
-create a lib project -> works
-add include path to ODA library to the project -> works
-use a variable of ODA -> error above
-add libstdc++ to qmake -> generate empty files
So the problem comes from either ODA or libstdc++, I will continue to search the solution

SGaist

Is ODA built against the old C++ library ?

Amott

I don't know, the package is named "Teigha_macOsX_x64_10.11" and the mac is in 64bit on OS X 10.11. I will ask in the ODA forum to know
Edit : I can generate some files now ! I change qmake argument to CFLAGS="-arch x86_64" but at a certain point it generate me the error above.

SGaist

The best would be to ensure what were the parameters used to build that library. It's surprising if they don't use libc++.

Amott

I have made a test with the command "file" to know what kind of library is it, here are my results :

a random lib in /usr/lib :

Mach-0 universal binary with 2 architectures
(for architecture x68_64): Mach-0 64-bit dynamically linked shared library x86_64
(for architecture i386): Mach-0 dynamically linked shared library i386

a lib from ODA :

current ar archive random library

I'm not sure of what it means, the library is not compatible with the Mac ?

@Amott

I use that ODA library on OSX and I link it with the c library like this...

LIBS += -lc++ \
-lTD_Db \
... other ODA libs

and it works fine.

Amott

@kenchan

Thanks for your response ! I have tried again but I still have the same error. Which version of OSX, ODA and XCode are you using ?

Amott

I finally found the solution : I needed a line on the .pro :
QMAKE_LFLAGS += -framework CoreFoundation

SGaist

Strange… You should have had undefined symbols errors…

In any case it should rather be: LIBS += -framework CoreFoundation

Amott

it works too, I will replace this variable. It strange but it works, after 3 weeks, I'm so happy that something works taht I won't search why it doesn't make me an error !
