Odd, if I touch rtl/source/locale.c and do "build" I get... gcc .. -o ../../unxlngx6/obj/locale.o locale.c g++ ... -o ../unxlngx6/lib/libuno_sal.so.3 ... rm -f ../unxlngx6/lib/check_libuno_sal.so.3 mv ../unxlngx6/lib/libuno_sal.so.3 ../unxlngx6/lib/check_libuno_sal.so.3 Checking DLL ../unxlngx6/lib/check_libuno_sal.so.3 ... rm -f ../unxlngx6/lib/libuno_sal.so cd ../unxlngx6/lib && ln -s libuno_sal.so.3 libuno_sal.so i.e. build, then check, not what you seem to have, i.e. check then build > Further, I don't see where the first line's reference to > check_libuno_sal.so.3 comes from. i.e. When did it get built prior? > Similar question goes for line 2 above (mv ...). The order they are supposed to happen (any maybe actually are happening, just out-of-order build log due to parallel building or different stdout/stderr streams) is as above, where the checking dll stuff is done by checkdll in soltools/checkdll. i.e. compile to shared lib, rename it, test it for sanity and rename it back if its ok, otherwise leave it renamed as broken and abort. > ... > rm -f path/to/file > gcc -o path/to/file [...] > ... > > That gcc command will just overwrite the file if it's there, no? > Therefore, why execute rm? Don't see this either, perhaps I'm missing the obvious how-to-reproduce this. Either way though, it looks like output from the "old-style" build+dmake build system, rather that the "new-style" gmake build system which stuff is migrating over to.
