@AlexandreHURDYK
So basically compiling it directly on our small Linux embarked system ?
We're compiling on kubuntu.

Yeah, even an old raspberry pi should work, or just run a minimal system in qemu.
If you succeed there, you can then play around with cross-compiling.
BTW, what error (about the incompatibility) you get from the linker?
AlexandreHURDYK
@AlexandreHURDYK
It just says "skipping incompatible ../ext/oatpp-1.3.0/lib/cortexa9hf_neon_Release/liboatpp.a when searching for -l:liboatpp.a" as an information message
And then we get "collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status" probably because the linker couldn't find the skipped libraries.

So you actually succeeded to build oat++, but couldn't link to it, right?
AlexandreHURDYK
@AlexandreHURDYK
Pretty much.
Probably we didn't build it right for our embarked platform.

The machine on which you compiled it wasn't arm, that's what I meant.
And of course there is ubuntu for arm.
AlexandreHURDYK
@AlexandreHURDYK
Yeah I don't think that kubuntu distribution was arm either.
Is there a way to check and be sure about my kubuntu version ?
mmn
@mmn:matrix.org

uname -a
Will tell you the arch for sure.

OK, so you are trying to cross-compile it from an x86_64 machine.
AlexandreHURDYK
@AlexandreHURDYK
Yeah. Target machine is 32 bits (so technically x86 right ?).
mmn
@mmn:matrix.org
[m]
No.
There is a ton of 32bit architectures.
x86 being only one of them, armhf (your target) another.
AlexandreHURDYK
@AlexandreHURDYK
Ouch
To things weren't even really compatible to begin with.
mmn
@mmn:matrix.org
[m]
So, if you have access to an old raspberry pi, that would be the easiest way to build it for your target (armhf) architecture.
Another option is to use qemu virtualisation.
AlexandreHURDYK
@AlexandreHURDYK
I don't think we have something like that, but maybe we can use the piece of hardware we're using that hosts our homemade OS in the same way. I'll try to ask a coworker.
If all else fails, it's qemu time to emulate a raspberry PI, right ?
mmn
@mmn:matrix.org
[m]
What are the ram/storage capacities of your target hw?
AlexandreHURDYK
@AlexandreHURDYK
No idea. Perhaps I can check with a command ?
mmn
@mmn:matrix.org
[m]
You don't know the device you are developing for?
AlexandreHURDYK
@AlexandreHURDYK
It's literaly a circuit board with an home made OS inside. Jobplace gave this to me monday without much precisions and told me to make my program work on that circuit board.
So I'm afraid that I lack a lot of critical information about what that improvised computer can do.
:/
I can however try to ask a coworker in a few minutes.
mmn

Okay, but then that's maybe not a question for this forum. If you are going to cross-compile for an embedded device, that's quite a specialised discipline... I can try to compile oat++ on my lime2 this afternoon (which is 32 bit arm), but that one runs a full debian distro.
AlexandreHURDYK
@AlexandreHURDYK
All I should need is the two static library files so maybe just doing that on that debian distribution could work.
mmn

What do you get after running
file ../ext/oatpp-1.3.0/lib/cortexa9hf_neon_Release/liboatpp.a
(replace the path with your actual path, of course)
AlexandreHURDYK
@AlexandreHURDYK
Linker says it ignores them outright because they're not compatible, then says "cannot find -l:liboatpp.a".
mmn
@mmn:matrix.org
[m]
But what does file say?
AlexandreHURDYK
@AlexandreHURDYK
Uuuuh hold on.
I got confused and didn't realize "file" was a command.
liboatpp.a: current ar archive
Mmmmh that doesn't seem to say a lot.
mmn
@mmn:matrix.org
[m]
Okay, it indeed doesn't.
What about objdump -a path/to/liboatpp.a?
AlexandreHURDYK
@AlexandreHURDYK
This one dumps a lot of stuff. Are you looking for a line in particular ?
mmn
@mmn:matrix.org

More like any one record.
I get for example
Pattern.cpp.o: tiedostomuoto elf64-x86-64
