Unsatisfied symbol error during pgm link for getyx()

[Travis Rebok]

My waive.c program includes the following curses info:

#include

WINDOW *planwin;
planwin= newwin(8,75,6,0);
getyx(planwin,y,x);

On compile/link I am getting the error message:
/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Unsatisfied symbols:
__getcury (first referenced in waivepgm.o) (code)
__getcurx (first referenced in waivepgm.o) (code)

I assume that __getcury and __getcurx are being called from within the getyx()curses function and they are not found. I assume that I am missing an HP lib in my makefile.

If this is the problem, how can I tell which lib these are in?

My makefile has the following:
CURSESLIB = -lHcurses -lcur_colr -lV3

My other screens that use Curses are compile/linking fine, but this is the only one that is calling the getyx() function

Any suggestions?

I would drop the -lHcurses -lcur_colr and replace that pair with simply -lcurses. You should note that getyx() is actually a macro and that is why getyx(playwin,y,x) works rather than getyx(playwin,&y,&x) if getyx() were a real function.

Worked like a charm and actually cleared up some other execution problems that I was having with some curses stuff.

Can you tell me what actually do the parameters on the CURSESLIB relate to? In other words is there a lib that -lcurses corresponds to?

Thanks.

Rather than telling you, I'll let the box tell you:

ldd myexe

Man ldd (list dynamic dependencies) for details.
