[gate-users] Compilation problem

[Fernando Rannou]

Dear Aurelien
My guess is that  the problem you are having is Mac OS specific.
Unfortunately, I do not have experience with Macs.
The error message "has no symbol" might be related to the building of
the symbol table by the compiler. I could be that the shared object
does not have a single symbol in it, like if the source file was empty.
This, in turn, may be caused by a macro like #ifdef or something like it
in the code that is not satisfied and the whole thing does not get
compiled.

This is a wild guess, so
are there any Mac OS experts that can help here?
Thanks
Fernando

The compilation didn't abort, but on my display, I had many "toto.a has no symbol". What consequences have this messages, and does someone know what it is due to?
