MinGW / G ++ / g95链接错误-libf95未定义对“ MAIN_”的引用

Question

Summing up, my problem consists on compiling g95 objects inside a C++ application. Actually, I'm constructing an interface for an old fortran program. For this task, I'm using the wxWidgets GUI library, and calling fortran subroutines when necessary. At the beginning, I was developing the entire project compiling my fortran files with gfortran (which comes with GCC) and linking them with my app by the g++ -o... command. Everything was working fine but some numbers values calculated by my fotran subroutines returned NAN values. Doing some research, I realized that compiling my fortran files with gfortran with the -m32 flag, generates this NAN values problem. Although compiling with -m64 flag, my code works properly well. The only trouble here is that my App should be 32bits and then I tryed another compiller. Here I found g95 Fortran compiler, which compiles my fortran code and gives the right output on a 32bits environment. But when I'm trying to link these g95 objects into my program I see this following error:

I have already read the g95 Manual for integration with C++ and I'm actually calling these functions bellow for controlling the fortran environment: void g95_runtime_start(int argc, char *argv[]); void g95_runtime_stop();

I also included the g95 Fortran Runtime Library libf95.a and the libgcc.a into my linker command. Finishing, I don't have a main method implemented because this is managed by wxWidgets, and my fortran subroutines can not have a main function because this is a C++ program calling fortran functions.

Can some of you guys help me with this problem? How can I fix this undefined reference to MAIN__ problem? Any idea will be much appreciated.

Answer 1

I'm answering my own question because I got the solution. The problem wasn't with my g95 intergration. I just overwrite the wxWidgets main macro for an int main function initialization as presented bellow:

// Give wxWidgets the means to create a MyApp object
//IMPLEMENT_APP(MyApp);

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {

    //MyWxApp derives from wxApp
    MyApp *myapp = new MyApp();
    wxApp::SetInstance( myapp );
    wxEntryStart( argc, argv );
    myapp->OnInit();

    myapp->OnRun();
    myapp->OnExit();
    wxEntryCleanup();

}

By the way, the required main function is now defined and my app is now working properly well without NAN values.

I hope that this question can help others.
