gcc problem

guaggia — Fri, 27 Aug 2004 02:05:57 GMT

I try to compile an application using gcc 3.0.2 on HP-UX 11.0 and I have the following error message :

/usr/ccs/bin/ld: ../asn2c/rts/librts.a: Not a valid library (invalid magic number). Possibly a 64-bit PA archive library (Mismatched ABI).
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
*** Error exit code 1

Can you help me ?

thank in advance

The error seems to indicate you are trying to build a 32 bit executable, but try to link with a 64 bit library.
More info can help, like the compile options used, the system you are using to build on, etc.

And FYI, on HP-UX on PA-RISC there's TWO different GNU gcc compilers needed for 32- and 64bit objects.

gcc/32 cannot build 64bit objects, and gcc/64 cannot build 32bit objects.

IIRC that dual life is solved for Itanium
