Is there a complete library for C++ programming in ubuntu like "MSDN"?!When using "Vim", I want to access a function's completeefinition such as it's header file, library description and parameters, etc.Is it necessary to install something from repository to obtain such a documentation? And what would be the command to access a function's description in "vim"?
View 1 RepliesI'm reading about shared, static, and dynamic libraries. What is SDL? Is it static, shared, or dynamic?
I always thought a library would be a lot of .h and .cpp files compiled separately into .o files and then if you compiled your own program you could use the -l parameter to link the library and it was all compiled together. Now I'm not so sure.
I don't even see any SDL .cpp files in my system anywhere. All I have are lots of SDL .h files in /usr/include/SDL and I don't really understand the code in them.
I'm making a wild guess here: SDL is a shared library. SDL itself is NOT compiled into my program, therefore SDL must be on any system my program tries to run on. When I compile and link SDL all it needs is the header files to know what SDL function and objects it can use. And then on every system it uses an already compiled SDL shared library thingy somewhere.
So... where is that part of SDL? All I can find are header files.
I'm thinking the advantage of shared libraries is that someone could say update SDL on their own system and take advantage of the new features without having to download new executables with the new version of SDL compiled into them for every program that uses SDL.
So if I'm making an editor and a game engine and they both use a lot of the same .cpp and .h files that I wrote and I'm tired of updating one and then the other and I need to turn them into a library, then a shared library might be kind of a silly solution. I could just make a static library. Right? Because it's not SDL. Nobody else is ever going to use this library.
How can we convert a dynamic library (filename.so) to a static library (filename.a) using gnu gcc . Can we get a static library form a dynamic library . I saw a few post in which the conversion form a static library to a dynamic library is mentioned but, unfortunately, not the other way.
View 4 Replies View RelatedHow to make simple games (snake, pong... nothing too fancy). I have completed making snake and now want to be able to distribute it. I built it using C++ and wxWidgets so it would be multi-platform. I'm able to compile it and run it in both Windows and Ubuntu using g++. In windows, I was able to distribute it by putting a *.dll file in the same folder as the executable. However in Linux, I don't understand what I need to do so that it would run on any installation of Ubuntu out of the "box". When I build it and try to run it in a different installation of Ubuntu (which has g++) it gives me an error saying that a particular library file was not found and Getlibs fails to find that library file.
Is there a way to build a project with G++ so that all the dependencies are either packaged in the executables or copied into the folder....?
I'm trying to make one that has some sorts in it for now. I know you have to make a header file and a .cpp file. I'm using VC++(yes, I'm in school so windows in needed. I use Ubuntu at home I swear D if it makes a difference. What goes in the header file, how is the cpp file set up, and then where do I put the files once I'm done?

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhere are the definitions for C library functions located? It was just recently that I realized that header files don't actually define any functions, they merely include their prototypes.
For instance, stdio.h includes the following line:
Code:
This just means that the definition of printf() is located in another file. What file? Is there some kind of default shared object file that is automatically included during compilation?
Where is the location of the header files for the c++ standard library?
I assume that they were installed by gnu g++, please correct me if i'm wrong.

is there a way to debug my library files from DDD? Basically a way to pass the paths to DDD so I can view the source etc. I'm having a segmentation nightmare, which only crops up about every 10 or so starts, I know it's in one file in a library. I could move the source file into my general code to debug, but am sure there's a way in DDD.

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables FONTCONFIG_CFLAGS
and FONTCONFIG_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.See the pkg-config man page for more details.

Code:
main.c:(.text+0x3e): undefined reference to `extract_v1'
main.c:(.text+0x7b): undefined reference to `modify_v1'

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Any idea about this?
Also, I want to ask about: how to create my own header and library to put into /usr/include/mylib/ and /usr/lib/mylib/, so when I use function in my program, the compiler will automatically link to library. It's like when you #include <stdio.h>, and you compile: $ gcc -o program program.c, you don't need to specify any linking folder or library.
