Code::Blocks not compiling .cpp files well under Ubuntu
« on: June 17, 2008, 01:49:39 pm »
Hi all, I've installed code::blocks on my Ubuntu Desktop at work :), But for some reason, it gives me all kinds of weird errors when I try to compile a c++ file. C files on the other hand compile just fine.

My feeling is that I must be making a very stupid mistake, which is why I am not including the verbose, unless you think you need it.

Best Regards,

Srepuac :

Umm, after experimenting a bit, it seems to happen only if I use the curses library, ansi c++ seems to compile fine.

The following simple program doesn't compile:

#include <ncurses.h>

int main()
{

    initscr();

    printw("%s", "hello world");
    refresh();

    endwin();


}


Codeblocks verboses the following:

/usr/lib/libcurses.a(lib_mouse.o)||In function `_nc_mouse_init':|
(.text+0x833)||undefined reference to `dlopen'|

Umm, nice, but i can compile well with ubuntu's command line, my problem seems to be related to library linking in code::blocks or something. Anyone?

Post your project & build settings pls :)

EDIT: Also the successful command line build string may help.

Umm, project and build settings huh?

I'm not sure exactly how to check that, but I don't make projects, I just make File-New-File-C++ Source.

As for build settings, I just added the following libraries and search directories to my compiler:

Libraries:
libncurses++.a
libcurses.a
libncurses.a
libdl.a
libglib.a

Directories:
/usr/lib

Hope you can help me solve the problem, I love code::blocks  :(

Oops, had forgotten the command line:

g++ file.cpp -o file -lncurses

you need include this library /lib/libncurses.so.5

P.S.: path /lib, not /usr/lib. And shall be install this packages libncurses5, libncurses5-dev

I didn't find libncurses.so.5, just libncurses.so, which I added to the list.

libncurses5, libncurses5-dev are installed to the latest version :(

I also added the /lib dir, but still the same errors...

ok, if not find libncurses.so.5, include libncurses.so to the project, but path shall be /lib.

show me place result two command:

1. sudo aptitude search ncurses
2. sudo find / -name libncurses*

and not /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5
