Static version test compilation fails to link libHepMC properly

[Juergen Reuter]

When executing the whizard_test_static.sh testbed with gfortran 4.5.0, it crashes with the following error messages: libmanager.f90:47.27:

c_fptr = c_funloc (processes_get_n_processes)

1

Error: Parameter 'processes_get_n_processes' to 'c_funloc' at (1) must be BIND(C) libmanager.f90:49.27:

c_fptr = c_funloc (processes_get_process_id)

1

Error: Parameter 'processes_get_process_id' to 'c_funloc' at (1) must be BIND(C) libmanager.f90:51.27:

c_fptr = c_funloc (processes_get_model_name)

1

etc.

Fixed this by including bind(C) in the module process_libraries. Works for i686 32 bit, still needs confirmation for MAC OS X. Therefore I leave the ticket open.

[Juergen Reuter]

For MAC OS X there is somehow a problem with the inclusion of the HepMC libraries: Undefined symbols:

However, when HepMC is disabled, the static test works also under MAC OS X.

[Juergen Reuter]

It looks like that there is a linking problem for the static version under MAC OS X. Tried to change the order of linking the files, but up to now unsuccessful. My knowledge about the MAC linking seems not be sufficient.

[Juergen Reuter]

I found out that the problem disappears if I include on the MAC the C++ standard library libstdc++.dylib by just adding after the libHepMC.dylib. What I don't know is whether -- although working -- this is the correct procedure or not. In principle, GNU libtool should be able to do that job. Or is there a flag missing or something like that?

[Juergen Reuter]

Fixed in r1223. Introduction of a flag LDFLAGS_STATIC which is set to "-lstdc++-static" for MAC OS X. Could not test under FreeBSD yet.
