Linking with files from another project

Post by Hnry »

I have divided my project to have two other projects(Common, Connection) that are used by other projects(Login, World) and they are all in the same workspace. Build order should be correct as it is now but there are still "undefined references to" functions/classes.

Build output:

Code: Select all

----------Build Started--------
C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe /c ""mingw32-make.exe"  -j 1 -f "Flyff_wsp.mk""
----------Building project:[ Common - Debug ]----------

I'm pretty sure my problem is that I'm not including my other projects' object files to linker because the object files from Connection aren't shown here:

Code: Select all

g++ -o ./Debug/Login ./Debug/main.o ./Debug/Initializing.o ./Debug/Server.o ./Debug/Player.o ./Debug/Items.o ./Debug/Worlds.o ./Debug/PacketCreator.o ./Debug/LoginPacket.o ./Debug/Login.o ./Debug/Characters.o  "-L."  -lwsock32
I figured adding

Code: Select all

../Connection/Debug/AbstractPlayer.o ../Connection/Debug/Acceptor.o ../Connection/Debug/PacketHandler.o ../Connection/Debug/Selector.o
there could be a solution but I don't know how to do it.


Thanks in advance,

You should create a library from project 'Connection' (change the type of project 'Connection' to 'Static Library' / 'Dynamic Library') and use the output of this project in the link option of the other project

Damn, didn't even think about that. That's simple then. :)
