Invalid loader fixup in text space needed...

[devshlom]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a shared library on HPUX 11.23 and got the following error:
/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Invalid loader fixup in text space needed in output file for symbol "CCACSXXX::~CCACSXXX()" in input file "my_file"
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Do you have any idea?
1. The same makefile worked for Solaris,aix and linux

2. I tried it as is since it might be fixed by installaing a patch... if not, I will try to generate a small shared library (so) in order to give you more detailed information.

3. My Env:
Using built-in specs.
Target: hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.23
Configured with: ../gcc/configure
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.2.2


tx,

This is linker-speak for you didn't generate PIC code. For HP's compilers you need +z/+Z.
For gcc, you need -fpic.

Hi,

it didn't solve the problem I specified - I might have some other problems... so I'm gonna try creating small shared lib for HPUX... and then get back.

BUT anyway what's the meaning of this flag?

Generate code for a shlib, Position Independent Code.

I will open more relevant thread for shared object creation
