Question

I am new to mac! I download the xcode4.2 and tried to build CppUTest-v3

1)when I do make, I have the following logs

ld: library not found for -lgcov
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make: *** [CppUTest_tests] Error 1

I found out that I can build by using the llvm make command

2)Then I cd to the examples directory. I got the following errors. I tried to investigate but could not find out how to solve it. Your help will be appreciated.

Answer 1

I was able to find the location of CppUTest's missing libgcov.a on my Mac running Lion.

/usr/llvm-gcc-4.2/lib/gcc/i686-apple-darwin11/4.2.1/libgcov.a
/usr/llvm-gcc-4.2/lib/gcc/i686-apple-darwin11/4.2.1/x86_64/libgcov.a

Apparently these locations aren't in the loaders default search path, so after linking the 64 bit variant to /usr/local/lib I was able to make CppUTest without a hiccup.

sudo ln -s /usr/llvm-gcc-4.2/lib/gcc/i686-apple-darwin11/4.2.1/x86_64/libgcov.a /usr/local/lib/libgcov.a

Best of luck
