Posted on August 31, 2005 at 06:06 Hi there,
I am trying to compile uClinux (uClinux-dist-20040408.tar.gz) with the patch uClinux-dist-20040408-str710-patch.tar.gz. and the library ncurses.
On the configuration utility I select the following settings:
Vendor: ST
ST products: STR710
Kernel Version: Linux-2.4.x
Libc: uClibc
Besides i included the libraries: ''libZ'' and ''ncurses'' under ''Customize Vendor/User Settings'' and i chose the option ''System V IPC'' under ''Customize Kernel settings'''. And i followed the steps describe on the section 5.1 (''Add your application to uClinux image'') of the ST ''AN 2119 APPLICATION NOTE''.
After running menuconfig, i did as follow:
make dep
make lib_only
make user_only
In the last make i got an error: ''cannot find -lncurses''. The problem is that the four libraries that my application uses from ncurses ( -lform -lmenu -lpanel -lncurses ) are not found. The ncurses directory is installed under glibc and apparently ncurses-5.2 (the version installed in the uClinux distribution) compiles with uClibc directory. What is more, the .a libraries are not created under ncurses/lib, so it seems that ncurses is installed in not a proper directory on the uClinux distribution. Does somebody know how could i make that these dynamically linked libraries are created and then are available for my application?
I would really appreciate some kind of help, thank you very much.
Juan Fco.
