[SOLVED] Issue when using class created with my Dll

mcosta

How is defined El ??

Seems El doesn't have a default constructor

BlackMamba

@mcosta
Well, its defined in the Obo project library as a standard class.
It has a default constructor :
EI::EI()
{

}

mcosta

Can you post the code and the qmake project file??

BlackMamba

Well, which code? Obo is around 40k lines of code :/
Which qMake file? The one from the library?

Can this be related to EXporting DLL classes? I am not familiar with that at all :(

mcosta

@BlackMamba said:

OBOSHARED_EXPORT

Do you used this also for El?
The library .pro file should be enough.

Seems the the El constructor in not available outside the library.

BlackMamba

I didn't use this for the EI class, let me try that !

BlackMamba

Now it compiles but crashes immediately when I execute the code.
Here is the pro file :

include(Obo.pri)
QT -= gui
TARGET = Obo
TEMPLATE = lib
DEFINES += Obo_LIBRARY
SOURCES += Obo.cpp
HEADERS += Obo.h
Obo_global.h
unix {
target.path = /usr/lib
INSTALLS += target
}

and the .pri file :

SOURCES +=
...
$$PWD/src/OboInterface/EI.cpp
HEADERS +=
$$PWD/src/OboInterface/EI.h
...
DEPENDPATH += $$PWD/src/OboInterface
INCLUDEPATH+= $$PWD/src/OboInterface

mcosta

Ok,

where's the crash? which line? Are you able to collect a crash dump?

BlackMamba

It crashes at the same line, when I try to instantiate the object :
EI myEI;

mcosta

How is defined El??

Try to provide as much information as possible; otherwise we'll be not able to help you

BlackMamba

With an empty class, I have the same issue :

#ifndef EI_H
#define EI_H

class EI
{
public:
EI();
~EI();
};

#endif // EI_H

main.obj:-1: erreur : LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: __cdecl EI::EI(void)" (??0EI@@QEAA@XZ) referenced in function main

With this :

#ifndef EI_H
#define EI_H

#include "obo_global.h"

class OBOSHARED_EXPORT EI
{
public:
EI();
~EI();
};

#endif // EI_H

same error :(

mcosta

I mean the implementation of El.

Can you post the crash dump?

BlackMamba

After some clean, good news, I have a new mistake when I add OB0SHARED_EXPORT for the EI class:
main.obj:-1: erreur : LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) public: __cdecl EI::EI(void)" (_imp??0EI@@QEAA@XZ) referenced in function main

BlackMamba

@mcosta I gave youi the implementation, I deleted all the methods, its an empty class with ctor and dtor only.

mcosta

Sorry, if you don't show the code I can't help you!

BlackMamba

@mcosta Please read my last answer ;)

mcosta

So, now you have the link error or still the crash??

You said before you was able to compile and link but you get a crash and now again the link error. It's a little bit confusing

BlackMamba

Now the crash ... Yes, its confusing for me too.
Thats looks so simple, I don't understand what I am doing wrong.
The crash means he cant find the EI cpp implementation at runtime.

BlackMamba

OMG!!!!! I am soooooo stupid ... I didn't update the copy of the Obo.dll .....
Sorry for your time mcosta !

You gave me the right answer by adding OB0SHARED_EXPORT for the classes you need to use after ...
Thanks !

mcosta

Ok, no problem!

Happy programming
