使用带有 go 的 swig 包装的 c++ 库

Question

I have managed to successfully wrap a large C++ library with SWIG . I published themodule and can install it okay, but when I go to build it I get a ton of undefined reference errors to the functions contained within the generated c file.

I placed the generated so lib file in my system lib directory, and placed the header files from the library into my system include directory, but this has not solved the problem. I am guessing that I need a header file for wrapped c file as well so the interpreter can know what's in the so file, but given that SWIG didn't generate one, I don't know if I am missing anything else. I'm going to try to write my own header file to see if that resolves the errors, but even if it does, shouldn't that be something that SWIG would do automatically?

My source files are below

/** file: golibraw.i **/
%module librawgo
%{
#define LIBRAW_LIBRARY_BUILD
/* Put headers and other declarations here */
#include "libraw/libraw.h"
#include "libraw/libraw_alloc.h"
#include "libraw/libraw_const.h"
#include "libraw/libraw_datastream.h"
#include "libraw/libraw_internal.h"
#include "libraw/libraw_types.h"
#include "libraw/libraw_version.h"
%}

The reason is that Go compiler has no idea about the library librawgo.so .

Put the following line to the top of the C comment in librawgo.go :

#cgo LDFLAGS: -L<path/to/dir/with/librawgo.so> -lrawgo -lraw

This instruction tells the compiler to add this line to the linker flags.

Sorry, I don't know how to modify your CMake and SWIG settings to generate this line automatically.
