    Hi,

    Do you have that static library available in the project sources ?

      @SGaist I do have the header file ftd2xx.h. However, I do not have the compiled static file libftd2xx.a. On my Windows machine, I think (and I might be wrong) the library is being compiled at run time because I just checked there and only the header file is available in the project sources.

        In that case you should first get the library for your OS.

          @SGaist I installed the libftd2xx.a static library and copied it into usr/lib as well as usr/local/lib and I am getting the same error. Am I missing something?

            The PRE_TARGETDEPS points within your sources.

            One thing you can do is comment out this line.

            It's usually used to ensure that if a static library is changed, then it will trigger a rebuild of the target. In your can you do not seem to build libftd2xx so you should be safe from that point of vue.

              @SGaist I commented out the line you mentioned, and now I get a bunch more errors relating to that same library. Seems to be originating from line above the one I removed:
              /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/local/lib/libftd2xx.so when searching for -lftd2xx
              /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/local/lib/libftd2xx.a when searching for -lftd2xx
              /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lftd2xx
              /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lGL

                You are missing the OpenGL development package for your distribution.

                You likely have a 32bit build of ftd2xx.

                  @SGaist Awesome, you were right. Now with the 64bit ftd2xx and OpenGL package installed, it builds and runs. I guess I'll leave that last line commented out until I figure out the problem with it.

                  Thanks for your help, highly appreciated.

                    @Adham said in Compile error when building project (process: "/usr/bin/make" -j8):

                    I guess I'll leave that last line commented out until I figure out the problem with it.

                    As I wrote before, this line expects to find the static libftd2xx library file within the project sources.

                      @SGaist I heard you, I tried throwing it in there but I got the same error. Anyways I should be good for now. I'll come back if I can't figure it out later on lol. Thanks again.
