           Summary: error in Makefiles generation prevents compilation
                    (linking phase)
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: 2.1.3
          Platform: Mandrake RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdevelop-devel at barney.cs.uni-potsdam.de
        ReportedBy: arzuffi.arnaud at tiscali.fr


Version:           2.1.3 (using KDE KDE 3.0.5)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs
Compiler:          gcc 3.2 
OS:          Linux

The compilation phase causes no problems ; however, the linking phase produces an error.

Error message :

make: L/usr/X11R6/lib : Commande introuvable
("commande introuvable" is the french translation of "command not found")


Possible explanation : the root of source files (amloghuis/amloghuis/srcs) contains no source file ; indeed, if I add an even empty "main.cpp" in this directory, there is no error anymore and the program is compiled. This problem of an directory without source files seems to appear only when such a directory is the root directory of the source files. Indeed, the "amloghuis/amloghuis/srcs/document/contents" directory in my project also doesn't contain any source file and it causes no problem.


Correction attempt :

Adding the following commands :

CXXFLAGS = -O2 -O0 -g3 -Wall -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fexceptions
#>- CXXCOMPILE = $(CXX) $(DEFS) $(INCLUDES) $(AM_CPPFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(AM_CXXFLAGS) $(CXXFLAGS)
#>+ 1
CXXCOMPILE = $(CXX) $(DEFS) $(INCLUDES) $(AM_CPPFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(AM_CXXFLAGS) $(CXXFLAGS) $(KDE_CXXFLAGS)
#>- LTCXXCOMPILE = $(LIBTOOL) --mode=compile $(CXX) $(DEFS) $(INCLUDES) $(AM_CPPFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(AM_CXXFLAGS) $(CXXFLAGS)
#>+ 1
LTCXXCOMPILE = $(LIBTOOL) --mode=compile --tag=CXX $(CXX) $(DEFS) $(INCLUDES) $(AM_CPPFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(AM_CXXFLAGS) $(CXXFLAGS) $(KDE_CXXFLAGS)
CXXLD = $(CXX)
#>- CXXLINK = $(LIBTOOL) --mode=link $(CXXLD) $(AM_CXXFLAGS) $(CXXFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) -o $@
#>+ 1
CXXLINK = $(LIBTOOL) --mode=link --tag=CXX $(CXXLD) $(AM_CXXFLAGS) $(CXXFLAGS) $(KDE_CXXFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) -o $@

in the file "amloghuis/amloghuis/Makefile", and replacing the command :

amloghuis$(EXEEXT): $(amloghuis_OBJECTS) $(amloghuis_DEPENDENCIES)
	@rm -f amloghuis$(EXEEXT)
	$(LINK) $(amloghuis_LDFLAGS) $(amloghuis_OBJECTS) $(amloghuis_LDADD) $(LIBS)

by the command :

amloghuis$(EXEEXT): $(amloghuis_OBJECTS) $(amloghuis_DEPENDENCIES)
	@rm -f amloghuis$(EXEEXT)
	$(CXXLINK) $(amloghuis_LDFLAGS) $(amloghuis_OBJECTS) $(amloghuis_LDADD) $(LIBS)

in the file "amloghuis/amloghuis/Makefile", enables the linking phase to complete without errors and the executable is produced.

Hoping that will help... to correct this problem :)
