从 C++ 和 Objective-C++ 链接到 Cocoa Framework

Question

I'm trying to use a Cocoa Framework (MultitouchSupport, to be specific) from within a basic Objective-C++ file, but I keep getting undefined symbol errors, as if g++ is supposed to have different linker flags than gcc.

My ultimate goal is to integrate a C++.networking library with some basic Objective-C code I got from here: http://steike.com/code/multitouch/ .

When I run this to compile the original code, it works fine:

gcc -F/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks -framework MultitouchSupport test.m -o test -std=c99

But when I rename the file to test.mm , so that it can later include and reference C++ files, the following doesn't work:

g++ -F/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks -framework MultitouchSupport test.mm -o test

And gives me these errors:

Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
"MTDeviceCreateDefault()", referenced from:
    _main in ccq0vzuM.o
"MTRegisterContactFrameCallback(void*, int (*)(int, Finger*, int, double, int))", referenced from:
    _main in ccq0vzuM.o
"MTDeviceStart(void*, int)", referenced from:
    _main in ccq0vzuM.o
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [testpp] Error 1

What do I need to do in order for this Objective-C++ file to see the Framework I'm looking for so I can use C++ with it?

Thanks!

Answer 1

In the header that declares those three functions, is there an extern "C" block that wraps them? Something like this?

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

// function declarations here

#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif

If not: You could add one to the header file, or add a similar wrapper around your #import of that header file.
