Hi all,

I am developing an application using eclipse CDT.
All the way I am using eclipse to test my application which is consisted of an executable project depends on other shared projects. I have no problem of running the application in eclipse as I set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in run configuration of the executable project with the shared library of other projects.

Example:
ExecutableProject depends on ProjectB, I set the run configuration of ExecutableProject point to the debug folder of ProjectB:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH
${workspace_loc:/ProjectB/Debug}


This works while running the application in eclipse,
but it can not run when i try to execute the application in command prompt, it shows that it can't find the share library of ProjectB,
"error while loading shared libraries: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

Do I need to write any configuration file on my own in order to run the application in command?

You have to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH on the command prompt as well.

Before you ask
- search this forum
- see the FAQ http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/FAQ
- google

I would need to deliver the application to third party, does it means i need to make sure the user set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH before running the application? Any easier way?

Sorry, I am not familiar with all these.

The library your application requires should be installed into the
standard library locations for your distribution. Therefore it is not
necessary to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH because your library will already
be in the path. Overriding LD_LIBRARY_PATH is only for testing
applications that require libraries that are still in development.

I am not so clear about the distribution step.
Can you explain about how to install the library to standard library for distriburtion?

I dont have the permission to install the shared library in the standard library, any setting in eclipse that enable me to compile the binary so that it can find the shared library in somewhere that i store the library?

Finally I found out the way to encode the rpath for the library in the linker so that the binary contain the supplemental path for the shared library. This solve my problem!

BTW, thanks for all the helps~
