Hi kids,
a silly question I am sure, and already touched upon by the illustrious Ivica Bukvic, whose guide to getting Gem up and running is wonderful.
Ivica reported the same problem, after successfully compiling Gem.pd_linux (not a test or experimental version to the best of my knowledge), running pd -nomidi -nosound -lib Gem spits out the following:
/home/tim/software/gem-0.84/Gem.pd_linux: /home/tim/software/gem-0.84/Gem.pd_linux: undefined symbol: OpenMPEG__FP8_IO_FILEP9ImageDesc Gem: can't load library
now, getting under the bonnet we find similar symbols in the Gem.pd_linux file. there are various symbols like OpenMPEG in the libmpeg.a file, nothing like this ugliness with underscores and all that....
being a nonexpert (mea culpa!) I was wondering whether anybody could help me through this...
Note, this is a 0.84 problem, things seem fine with 0.83 inasmuch as the basics work, but pix_image and other stuff fails tragically, so I would like to try out 0.84 to see if it is much better...
cheers,
tim

OK, this mess is all my fault.
I have uploaded gem-0.84-3.tar.gz to ftp://xdv.org/pub/gige/gem which is a version without movie support.
The underscore business in the symbol is because the symbol is a function, and this is a way for the linker to remember the functions parameters, which happen to be a file and a ImageDesc.
The new version does not solve the "enum" buissness, which is quite annoying and I have to think of a proper solution ... probably we will just make it a #define ...
