I'm trying to make an external with the source being split in five files, where all are included in the main file that creates the object. This is someone else's code (given freely), not aimed at Pd, and I would like to maintain this structure, rather than write everything in the main file.
I'm using pdlibbuilder's Makefile and the compilation process succeeds with a few warnings about unused parameters, but when I try to create the object in Pd, I get the following error:
undefined symbol: set_char_to_indx
set_char_to_indx is a function defined in one of the files included in the main file and it is used in one place in the main file. How can it be solved?
hard to tell without more info. if you write "included in the main file", what exactly does this mean? is it only the header-file you are "#include"ing? if so, you must also compile the C file where 'set_char_to_indx' is implemented and then link it into the final binary (external).
the simplest way to do that is using pd-lib-builders 'common.sources' variable (which will statically link the given files to all externals built by the project).
