Re: gcc 3.2 string<wchar_t> link problem


As a follow-up to this still-unresolved issue,
some traffic on the MingW list reveals the same
issue using MingW, which I have also (unsuccessfully)
been experimenting with:

http://www.geocrawler.com/mail/msg.php3?msg_id=9057201&list=6013
http://lists.boost.org/MailArchives/boost/msg41422.php

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=1991233

Which has been added to their bug tracker database:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=664369&group_id=2435&atid=102435

Has anyone else had progress with wchar with either
cygwin on mingw?

Regards,

Hi there,

See my post few weeks ago (29/10/2002)
subject : conflicting types for `typedef struct mbstate_t`(was link troubles
with wcslen)

also the one from zhang le on 27/10/2002
  missing wcsncmp,wcscpy,wcsncpy and more...

or a search in the archives on wcslen

no one on the list acknowledged the pb (cfg ?) and i noticed that gcc-3.2-2
probably solved issue 2) of my post because it had the following comment
(msg [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: gcc-3.2-2 10/11/2002):
'However, the only noticeable change from the last release was an attempt to
correctly define mbstate_t.'

I'm positive that wcslen is in newlib but i'm not sure for
wcsncmp,wcscpy,wcsncpy as i didn't needed them a that time.

Hello all,

Having happily upgraded my Cygwin to include gcc 3.2, I've
encountered a show-stopper: The linker can't resolve symbols
involving wide C++ strings.  Here is an example:

#include <string>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(int argc,char *argv[])
{
       std::string<wchar_t> test;
}

-----------------

$ g++ test.cpp
/cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/nigels/LOCALS~1/Temp/ccHP4AMl.o(.text+0x25):test.cpp:
undefined reference to `std::basic_string<wch
ar_t, std::char_traits<wchar_t>, std::allocator<wchar_t>
>::basic_string[in-charge]()'
/cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/nigels/LOCALS~1/Temp/ccHP4AMl.o(.text+0x30):test.cpp:
undefined reference to `std::basic_string<wch
ar_t, std::char_traits<wchar_t>, std::allocator<wchar_t>
>::~basic_string [in-charge]()'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

---------------------------

Any hints, suggestions, or duh-read-the FAQ responses, appreciated.

Note that the following compiles & links:

int main(int argc,char *argv[])
{
       std::string<double> test;
}
