如何将我的 C 代码与 PCRE 库链接？ （当前抛出的链接器错误。）

Question

The Problem

Note: I originally had this problem in a much larger project; so I pared the code down to the test case you see below.

I cannot figure out how to get the following test code to compile. Specifically, it appears as if the linker cannot find the PCRE library (see below for how PCRE was configured). And this despite the explicit -L/usr/local/lib -lpcre being passed to the linker (PCRE is installed in the /usr/local directory structure).

What am I doing wrong? :-(

The console output is:

$ make
rm -f ./*.o

[EDIT]

The Answer Has Been Found!

All external library flags must be listed after all of the object files. Thus, the Makefile should have looked like this:

GCC_LINK = $(GCC_CMD) -L/usr/local/lib $(GCC_OPTIONS)

GCC_LINK_ALL = $(GCC_LINK) main.o -lpcre

Thank you to everyone who responded with answers. :-)

Answer 1

Is it possible the linker is finding a pre-built version of the libpcre.so?

Try the advice from this question : "specify /usr/local/lib/libpcre.a on the compiler command line... avoid including -lpcre".
