Re: Help with strange compiler error linking to GSL


Lee Rhodes wrote:

Hello,
  I have installed the GSL libs via setup and am trying to get the following
example program to work:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <gsl/gsl_sf_bessel.h>

int main (void)
     {
       double x = 5.0;
       double y = gsl_sf_bessel_J0 (x);
       printf ("J0(%g) = %.18e\n", x, y);
       return 0;
     }

The compiler/linker is able to locate the header ok, but the error message I
get on the line that calls the function is:

undefined reference to `_gsl_sf_bessel_J0'

Somehow the function name got mangled with an added underscore, and of
course, it doesn't exist.


It compiles and links fine for me using "gcc t.cpp -lgsl". Are you sure you are putting -lgsl in the right place on the command line (ie, at the end)? If you are, try compiling with "gcc -v -v t.cpp -lgsl", here is that output for me:


$ gcc t.cpp -v -v -lgsl

It also works fine with g++ for me.
