make library not found - macos

I'm trying to compile a program using a third party library, Omnet++ in my case. Apparently "make" does not find a library, but the path it uses is correct as you can see (in the sense that I can see the library under omnet++ source tree)

ld: library not found for -lopptkenvd

Error 1 pv135168:basic Bob$

It's looking in the following directories for a file called libopptkenvd.dylib or libopptkenvd.a:
/Users/Bob/Code/omnetpp-4.1/lib/gcc
/Users/Bob/Code/omnetpp-4.1/lib
Is that file in one of those directories (or in the standard directories like /usr/lib)? I don't see an indication of that in your output.

Static library gcc - library not found

I want to create static library and something goes wrong. I have makefile:
static: main.c tree.c
gcc -c -Wall tree.c -o tree.o
ar crs libtree.a tree.o
gcc -Wall -static main.c -L. -ltree -o main
./main
When I write "make static", it shows me:
gcc -c -Wall tree.c -o tree.o
ar crs libtree.a tree.o
gcc -Wall -static main.c -L. -ltree -o main
ld: library not found for -lcrt0.o
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make: *** [static] Error 1
It created files: tree.o and libtree.a. I don't know why it doesn't want to find a library. Do you know how to solve it?
Most probably, your system is not set up for static linking. Most newer Linux distributions aren't as static linking is highly discouraged.
Look for a package named glibc-static or similar and install.
In case your system is not Linux (could be MacOS X as well, you didn't state that) - You're doomed. Static linking is not supported on that platform at all.

fatal error: png.h: No such file or directory(MiddleBury Evaluation)

I am testing stereo algorithm in MiddleBury Stereo Evaluation
One of step was to compile the tools in code/as follows.
cd code/imageLib
make
cd ..
make
cd ..
In this case, there is error in first make as follows,
$ make
g++ -O3 -W -Wall -g -c -o ImageIOpng.o ImageIOpng.cpp
ImageIOpng.cpp:19:17: fatal error: png.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make: *** [<builtin>: ImageIOpng.o] Error 1
and, regarding second make,
$ make
g++ -g -O3 -W -Wall -IimageLib ii.cpp -LimageLib -lImg.i686-g -lpng -lz -o ii
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/5.4.0/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: cannot find -lImg.i686-g
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/5.4.0/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: cannot find -lpng
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [<builtin>: ii] Error 1
In previous step, make worked fine.
So, what was the problem? I downloaded sample algorithm and did not edit/change contents in any file.
png.h is part of libpng16-devel and the specific include
directory must be added to the include path of your project.
$ cygcheck -l libpng16-devel |grep png.h
/usr/include/libpng16/png.h

Use fgsl in fortran: how to compile with gfortran

I am trying to do something basic, but I can't find the relevant information on how to compile. I tried the following without success:
gfortran testintegral.f90 -lgsl -lgslcblas
testintegral.f90:19.6:
use fgsl
1
Fatal Error: Can't open module file 'fgsl.mod' for reading at (1): No such file
The file is taken from http://de.wikibooks.org/wiki/Fortran:_FGSL#Beispiel:_Numerische_Integration (page in german but readily understandable) so I suppose it is OK.
Maybe the syntax of the compilation command is incorrect ?
EDIT:
I edit my initial post so as not to bury important information in the comments.
Those are the paths of the libraries:
sudo find -name '*libgsl.so*'
./usr/lib/libgsl.so.0
./usr/lib/libgsl.so.0.17.0
sudo find -name '*libgslcblas.so*'
./usr/lib/libgslcblas.so.0
./usr/lib/libgslcblas.so.0.0.0
But I still got an error message when doing:
gfortran testintegral.f90 -L/usr/lib -I/usr/include/fgsl -lfgsl -lgsl -lgslcblas
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgsl
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgslcblas
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Use the -I flag. For example,
gfortran -I/usr/local/fgsl/include testintegral.f90 -lgsl -lgslcblas
All the .mod files in that directory are then included.
EDIT: See also comments below.
Compilation of a file containing modules in gfortran produces two file types: The source file foo.f90 is translated into foo.o. If foo.f90 contains the modules bar and baz, then bar.mod and baz.mod are also generated. They contain the interface information for these modules. Note that there is no required mapping between module and file names (although programming guildelines may require this).
When the statement use fsgl is found, the interface information is read from fsgl.mod. If that file is not found, you get the error message
Can't open module file 'fgsl.mod' for reading at (1): No such file
So, you have to change your order of compilation (possibly through changing a Makefile).
1) the easiest way is
gfortran testintegral.f90 -I/usr/local/include/fgsl -lfgsl
2) this also works
gfortran -I/usr/local/include/fgsl testintegral.f90 -lgsl -lgslcblas -lm
3) I read the log of the make check in the package, the developer used such a way
gfortran -I/usr/local/include/fgsl -g -O2 -c -o test.o testintegral.f90
/bin/bash /path/.../fgsl-1.3.0/libtool --tag=FC --mode=link gfortran -g -O2 -o test test.o /usr/local/lib/libfgsl.la -lgsl -lgslcblas -lm
UPDATE:
First check the linkers for fgsl
pkg-config --libs fgsl
probably will get something like this
-L/usr/local/lib -lfgsl -lgsl -lgslcblas -lm
Then you put the linkers, works for all the cases!
gfortran -I/usr/include/fgsl example.f90 -lfgsl -lgsl -lgslcblas -lm
UPDATE: I answered too soon, here is the best universal method I found:
gfortran `pkg-config --cflags fgsl` testintegral.f90 -o integral `pkg-config --libs fgsl`

g++ linker options changes target file name

I need help it is bug or I don't understand how compilation options are working ?
I have sample main.c file and try to compile it as:
$ g++ -nostdlib -g -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -ffreestanding -nostdinc -nostdinc++ -Wl,--build-id=none,-g,-nostdlib,-nostartfiles,-zmax-page-size=0x1000 main.c -o main
and as output I have this:
$ ls
main.c startfiles
I am trying to understand why g++ created file named "startfiles" not "main" ?
If you read the GNU ld official documentation you will see that there is no option named -nostartfiles. What you do pass for arguments to the linker with that is the options -n and -ostartfiles.
If I were you, I would check those other options you try to pass to the linker as well.
-nostartfiles is a compiler flag as far as I know, not a linker flag.
For the linker, it's the same as -n -o startfiles, which is why you're getting that output file name.

GCC suppress flags

I'm trying to create a shared library with my gcc. It's a gcc for vxworks (thats probably the problem...).
I use the gcc as following:
./gcc -shared -B/path/to/gnutools/bin -o test.so test.c
Result:
/path/to/ld: -r and -shared may not be used together
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
If I try the same with the linux gcc, there's no problem. So i guess the gcc for VxWorks automatically passes the -r (or -i, which is the same and results in the same) flag to the linker. Is there a way to suppress this?

PS: making it static is not really an alternative...
Try compile object file separately with -fPIC and then link:
gcc -Wall -fPIC -c -o test.o test.c
gcc -Wall -shared -o test.so test.o
Another suggestion is to use libtool (at least to figure out the correct flags).
A workaround may be to go directly with ld:
ld -shared -o test.so test.o -lc
