Undefined Reference to ' ' error (Linux Ubuntu) [message #1751830] Sun, 15 January 2017 11:08 Go to next message

Hello,

I am trying to compile a code related to pocketsphinx. I am using ubuntu 14.04. But when i tried to build the code, it gives me error saying "undefined reference to 'cmd_ln_free ' " for example . This cmd-ln-free is a function located in one of the header file used. All the header files are located in a folder in home directory. I read from other forums that this may be a problem related to the linking of folders section, but i have already included a path to the folder with all the headers in the Cross GCC and Cross G++ compiler "includes path" section. I have also linked the folder in the C/C++ General --> path and symbols. The snapshots below show the error and also some of my settings. Any suggestions is most appreciated.

The problem here is you have compiled fine, but you have not linked fine. Compiling requires the libraries header files, but linking requires their implementation.

You have correctly added to C/C++ Build -> Settings -> Cross GCC Compiler -> Includes -> Include Paths.

Now you need to do similar for C/C++ Build -> Settings -> Cross G++ Linker -> Libraries

The exact value that goes in library paths and library itself will be the location and name (without lib prefix or .a suffix) of the libNAME.a.
