Subj : Building on Mac Big Sur To : Sean Rima From : Kai Richter Date : Mon Nov 04 2024 03:38 pm Hello Sean! 03 Nov 24, Sean Rima wrote to All: SR> ld: unknown option: -soname SR> Any ideas now to get around it Looks like -soname is parsed as switchname instead of -s. Manpage or try -s ? Some tools have pesty differences between platforms. hexdump -s 0x08 -n 0x10 gives bad -n format error on linux but no output on freebsd at all. hexdump -s 0x08 - n 16 will work on both. The error output on freebsd is just not there (maybe in return code but i haven't checked). It's strange that a hex tool does not understand hex in all places. What if the variable is wrong defined? Does hacking the compiler command for ld work? Like forcing LD=echo "$oname";ld in the makefile? Regards Kai --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.4.7 * Origin: Monobox (2:240/77) .
