I'm compiling dalvik on Android 4.1 with both host and target set to x86. The make command is:
make dalvikvm core ext framework android.policy services
However, there are multiple compiled binaries:
out/host/linux-x86/bin/dalvikvm
out/host/linux-x86/bin/dalvik
out/target/product/generic_x86/system/bin/dalvikvm
out/target/product/generic_x86/symbols/system/bin/dalvikvm
But the target versions don't work. When run, they show:
bash: ./dalvikvm: No such file or directory
This error is so strange that, I mean, the file is just there.
Could anyone please tell me which one is the compiled result? I mean, if I make some modification to dalvik source, which one will contain the modified result? Thank you.
This is almost certainly a linkage issue. The host version is linked against the normal host libc, but the target versions are linked against the android libc that lives in /system/lib on the device, which your host ld knows nothing about.
You might try something like:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<android_root>/out/target/product/generic_x86/system/lib out/target/product/generic_x86/symbols/system/bin/dalvikvm
Although I'm not entirely sure if that would work

I want to build a Qt project using either GCC or an ARM compiler. In either environment I have to link different libraries.
How I can check if the current compiler is Linux's g++ and CROSS_COMPILE is 'arm-cortexa9neont-linux-gnueabi-'?
You can use the Platform Scope built in to QMake to set up the build differently depending on platform.
It's based on the mkspec's shipped with Qt and can be found in
[Where Qt's installed]/mkspecs
So in your case I guess it'll look something like this:
linux-arm-gnueabi {
//ARM stuff here
}
Please note that I have not tested this. I've only read what's in the documentation I have linked to.
If you want to know only type of processor, you can use Q_PROCESSOR_ARM macro.
I have a 7 year old game that a friend built & I have very little of the source code left.
It works perfect on CentOS 4.8 and below, so I'm thinkin' it's a TLS error. I transfered a new folder with all the CentOS 4.8 libraries the program called to the new one... I'm trying to load the old libraries it called for in ldd specifically to that program,. This is what I'm trying:
LD_PRELOAD="/glibs/ld-linux.so.2 /glibs/libc.so.6 /glibs/libgcc_s.so.1 /glibs/libm.so.6 /glibs/libpthread.so.0 /glibs/libstdc++.so.5 /glibs/libz.so.1 /glibs/libxml2.so.2" /home/g/gameserver
I keep getting a Segmentation Fault error, does anyone know why? Maybe I don't fully understand what LD_PRELOAD does or something. How would I be able to load old libraries without messing up the originals? Thanks in advance!
LD_PRELOAD is more used to override a functionality in a library before the normal ones get used (e.g. custom malloc, socksify all sockets etc). What you probably need is to put all your old libraries into their own directory and then set LD_LIBRARY_PATH so that it attempts to find the library first in this directory.
All was right in the world until I upgraded to Xcode 4 a few days ago. Since then I've had endless problems getting things to work as they should. And I have a crucial update I need to release. I've tried every permutation of settings I can think of, restarted, reinstalled Xcode, reverted to old versions of my files, everything.
My project links to three static libraries, contained in three other projects. I have used the standard processes to link libraries (drag the project files into mine, add their products as target dependencies, add the lib---.a files to the Link Binary With Libraries phase). And actually, I have no problem compiling with the Debug Build Configuration, either for the simulator or my test device.
Where everything goes sideways is when I compile with the Release Build Configuration, or when I try to Archive. I've gotten many different errors depending on my settings, but most are variations on this:
ld: warning: ignoring file
[...]/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/libGDataTouchStaticLib.a,
file was built for archive which is
not the architecture being linked
(armv6) Undefined symbols for
architecture armv6:
"_OBJC_CLASS_$_GDataSpreadsheetData",
referenced from:
objc-class-ref in ExportViewController.o
I can't understand why it's even looking at Products in the Debug-iphonesimulator directory (I swear, everything I'm linking to reveals itself in the Finder to be in the proper Release-iphoneos directory).
I have put a ridiculous number of hours into fixing this, really need help! Thank you!
Please check this question and answer. I encountered same problem and fixed it.
Xcode4 Linking Problem. File was built for archive which is not the architecture being linked (arm6)
I solved this problem by copying the .a lib files from the Release-iphoneos directory to the Debug-iphonesimulator directory so that the correct files would be found even though Xcode was looking in the wrong directory.
However, then I encountered the problem raised here of a multi-application bundle -- and the solution given didn't work for me. Finally gave up and reinstalled Xcode 3. Compiled, archived, and uploaded to the App Store in 20 minutes. Will be some time, and several dot-releases, before I give Xcode 4 another shot.
You may have -DGDATA_REQUIRE_SERVICE_INCLUDES=1 enabled in your other C flags for the GDataTouchStaticLib target. If so, add the service you need, in this case, spreadsheets, by adding -DGDATA_INCLUDE_SPREADSHEET_SERVICE=1 to your Other C Flags. Or if you don't want GData to require service includes (which will build everything into the static lib, not just what you need), just remove the DGDATA_REQUIRE_SERVICE_INCLUDES flag.
I am trying to build an old version of an application which consists of VC++ projects that were written in Visual Studio 2003.
My OS is Windows 7 Enterprise (64-bit).
When I try and build the solution I get the following errors:
error C4772: #import referenced a type from a missing type library; '__missing_type__' used as a placeholder
fatal error C1084: Cannot read type library file: 'Smegui.tlb': Error loading type library/DLL.
They both complain about the following import statement:
#import "Smegui.tlb" no_implementation
This is not a case of the file path being incorrect as renaming the Smegui.tlb file causes the compiler to throw another error saying it cannot find the library.
Smegui is from another application that this one depends on. I thought perhaps I was missing a dll but there is no such thing as Smegui.dll.
All I know about .tlb files is that they are a type library and you can create them from an assembly using tlbexp.exe or regasm.exe (the later also registers the assembly with COM)
There is also an Apache Ant build script which uses a custom task to invoke devenv.com to build the projects. This is the same script that the build server originally used to build the application. It gives me the same errors when I try and run it.
The strangest thing about this is that I knew it ought to work seeing as it is all freshly checked out from subversion. I tried many different combinations of admin vs user elevation, VS vs Ant build, cleaning, release.
I have got it to build successfully about 5 times but the build seems to be non-deterministic.
If anyone can shed some light on how this tlb stuff even works or what this error might mean I would greatly appreciate it.
I found a far more reliable solution: open the tlb with oleview.exe and then close it.
Not sure what this actually does but it works every time.
I think oleview is actually one of the samples included with Visual Studio but I haven't had the time to debug it and see what it is doing.
I ran into this error because one type library was trying to load a dependent type library, which it could not find. Even though the dependent type library was in the same directory, and even though that directory was in the searchable path, the compiler would error loading the first type library, but not mention the dependent type library in the error.
To find the pseudo-missing type library, I ran Process Monitor (procman64.exe) during the compile. This showed that after the reported type library had successfully loaded, a dependent type library could not be found. It even showed all of the places that it was looking for the dependent type library, none of which were where it should have been looking (e.g.: ).
The fix was to add a <PreBuildEvent> to the project to copy the dependent .tlb file to one of the directories that was actually being searched.
<PreBuildEvent>
<Command>copy /Y ..\Lib\Interop\CWSpeechRecLib.tlb .\</Command>
</PreBuildEvent>

smegui.tlb is referencing some other tlb that the compiler can't find. If you have the .idl for smegui you might be able to figure out what the other is. I suspect the missing tlb is something that original build machine had registered but that your machine doesn't have registered.
A type library is a binary description of a set of interfaces, coclasses and enums. They're usually generated for COM components, in the case of tlbexp and regasm the tlb is created from the assembly metadata. For native COM components they are usually generated from an idl (Interface Description Language) file by the midl tool.
Edit:
I just noticed you're on x64 Windows. Are you building the project with a new version of Visual Studio? If so, are you targeting x86 or x64? If the latter, it may simply be a 32bit component that the compiler can't find (or less likely, a x64 component the x86 compiler can't find if you are targeting x86), for WOW64 the registry is virtualized for x86 vs. x64 applications.
Well I finally found out why I managed to get it to build sometimes and not others... sort of.
So long as I ran the build script with elevated administrator permissions and let that get as far as it could until that error occurred, then run the build script again as a protected administrator succeeded. Those steps must be done in that exact order with no other steps in between. If I try build in Visual Studio it does not work (although I did get it to succeed once). Probably some kind of virtualisation issue although it still doesn't quite make sense.
Well I don't need help on this any more and I know it's probably impossible to fully answer this question without knowing exactly what the build is doing. However if anyone does have any more thoughts I would happily receive them.
Cheers,

I am using the POSIX call nftw() for traversing a directory structure. The directory structure is flat - only 4 files and no subdirectories.
However when I call nftw() a lot of times on this flat directory then I get an error message after a while:
"too many open file handles".
It turned out that this happens when the flag FTW_CHDIR is used.
Would you agree that it is a bug in the Linux implementation of nftw() ?
UPDATE
A fix is now available in the glibc repositories.
here are some links to the source code I have used for testing:
main.cpp: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=4586&action=view
Makefile: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=4587&action=view
UPDATE
MacOS-X is also hit by the bug
Solaris9, Solaris10 and AIX 5.3 do not have the bug
For me it looks like there is really something wrong with the nftw implementation on linux.
I have filed a bug report, see here
UPDATE: A fix is available in the glibc repositories now.
It has the same behaviour on Mac OS 10.6.2. So probably somehow part of the specification, though I don't see how exactly.
Regarding Mac OS: bugreport submitted to Apple as radar #7640283. (No hyperlink possible, unfortunately.)
