folks, I am sorry to ask such elementary questions about building Gtk applications but I am a bit confused and cannot find the answers elsewhere. I get the following error when linking a simple test application I have written: ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; defaulting to 08048764 main.o:(.eh_frame+0x11): undefined reference to `__gxx_personality_v0' I get the same __gxx_personality_v0 error for every file that compiled in my build. I am using `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0` on the g++ command line for every compilation. And I am using `pkg-config --libs gtk+-2.0` on the ld command line for the linking. I am confused about what the pkg-config actually does and what this back-quoted string actually is telling the compiler to do. I have never seen this construction before. So... Q: what actually does pkg-config do? Q: do I use `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0` if I am using g++ and not gcc? Q: what is the reference to: __gxx_personality_v0 ?? Q: how do I resolve that undefined reference error? Thanks for any guidance you can give this newbee... -Andres _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
