undefined reference with shared library using cmak

问题:

I have looked a lot of placed to find this answer, but I have not been able to find anything that pertains to my situation. It seems so easy, which is why this is so frustrating.

I am building a project with CMAKE. I am generating two shared libraries. One includes the other. I am also generating an executable. The executable is linking to the shared library that encapsulates the other one. Here is the relevant portion of the code:

Here is the error I get.

CMakeFiles/er_test.dir/test/dsp_test.cc.o: In function `main':
dsp_test.cc:(.text.startup+0x11e): undefined reference to `std::basic_ostream<char, std::char_traits<char> >& operator<< <int>(std::basic_ostream<char, std::char_traits<char> >&, std::vector<int, std::allocator<int> > const&)'

dsp_test.cc:(.text.startup+0x1b6): undefined reference to `std::vector<int, std::allocator<int> > subvec<int>(std::vector<int, std::allocator<int> > const&, int, int, int)'

and there are many more where those came from. I have tried using static libraries, but then it just delays the problem until the next executable I try to include these libraries into. I have also tried using g++ instead of c++. I've tried swapping around library orders. Also, it is not a template issue since at least one of the references it can't find is not a templated function. I have searched the libraries for the symbols, and I was able to find them, although they were prepended and postpended by random characters.

I don't understand what's going on. Please help.

Thanks,

UPDATE

I found another link, specifically this one, that mentioned potential problems with add_subdirectory. This is a subproject to another project. So I sent into the project and built there. It worked! It still doesn't work in the parent directory though. Maybe that can give clues to someone.

Thanks again,

回答1:

Don't assume that the directory containing CMakeLists.txt is the current directory at runtime. Instead, use ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR} whenever you want a path relative to the CMakeLists.txt. For example:

include_directories(${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/hdr)
