cairo-1.10 build log |

Are you sure that this really, really, *really* is a regression? I can't see anything that changed in cairo in this regard. Also, this problem is specific to the qt backend which is the only(?) C++ code in cairo. This backend is so experimental that it is not even listed as an experimental backend. Created attachment 72584 [details]
cairo-1.10 build log
Indeed the build error goes away after disabling the qt backend.
But cairo-1.10 built fine with gold and qt enabled (see attached log).
We also have a skia backend which is C++, but that's probably even more experimental than the qt backend. :-) Looks like the beos also needs C++, fwiw. Fwiw, `./configure --enable-qt` appears to result in a successful build on Ubuntu 12.04. But on Ubuntu 14.04 (gcc 4.8) using libqt4-dev, I see this error: CCLD cairo-test-suite /usr/bin/ld: ../boilerplate/.libs/libcairoboilerplate.a(libcairoboilerplate_cxx_la-cairo-boilerplate-qt.o): undefined reference to symbol '__gxx_personality_v0@@CXXABI_1.3' //usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[4]: *** [cairo-test-suite] Error 1 This is just saying that the library wasn't included in the linker command line. So it needs -lstdc++ added someplace, at a minimum. Almost certainly the cause of the originally reported problem. I've drummed up a patch that adds -lstdc++ and -lQtGui when --enable-qt is given, which seems to result in a successful build on 14.04 for me. commit b384e86c6a2b15d26908ede73cb29098afe5e809 Author: Bryce Harrington <b.harrington@samsung.com> Date: Tue Jul 8 15:53:41 2014 -0700 configure.ac: Fix broken build for Qt backend When --enable-qt is specified, the build will break due to missing libstdc++: CCLD cairo-test-suite /usr/bin/ld: ../boilerplate/.libs/libcairoboilerplate.a(libcairoboilerplate_cxx_la-cairo-boilerplate-qt.o): undefined reference to symbol '__gxx_personality_v0@@CX$ //usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status When using g++ to compile and link code, g++ automatically links libstdc++. However, in cairo we're using g++ only to compile, so need to explicitly link against libstdc++ for backends that need iostream, stl, or other stdc++ features. Fixes: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59038 Signed-off-by: Bryce Harrington <b.harrington@samsung.com> Reviewed-by: Uli Schlachter <psychon@znc.in> This commit appears to have not yet reached cairo git yet. Also, I think -lm is also needed besides -lstdc++ for linking with ld.gold, but I will check once the fix is available. Sorry, pushed |
