OpenEuphoria

1. Error using euc

Hello, I'm new to OpenEuphoria but an old user of "classic" Euphoria 3.1.1. I've installed euphoria-4.1.0-Linux-x64 in Ubuntu 22.04 following the steps from the download page. The interpreter eui works fine, but when I try to compile with euc I have this error message:

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/euphoria-4.1.0-Linux-x64/bin/eu.a(be_w.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against symbol `screen_image' can not be used when making a PIE object; recompile with -fPIE 

Thanks, Rodolfo.

PS: It's a pleasure to be in an Euphoria forum again!

Thanks for the answer, irv.

I have executed the commands and now the error messages are others:

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/euphoria-4.1.0-Linux-x64/bin/eu.a(be_runtime.o): en la función `power': 
be_runtime.c:(.text+0x4061): referencia a `__powl_finite' sin definir\\

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status\\ 
make: *** [prueba.mak:21: /home/rodoval/prueba] Error 1 

Some messages are in Spanish, but I think they are understandable (en la función = in the function, referencia a = reference to, sin definir = undefined).

Thanks, Rodolfo.

It's a problem with newer versions of glibc lacking those functions. See here: https://openeuphoria.org/forum/136848.wc#136849 (that post includes links to other related posts as well)

OK. I tested the usual

puts(1,"Hello World\n") 

and it compiles and runs.

I also tried several EuGTK programs (which are large and complex, and use almost all Eu includes), and they compile and run without error.

I'm using Mint Linux: Linux irv-desktop 5.0.0-32-generic #34~18.04.2-Ubuntu SMP Thu Oct 10 10:36:02 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Ubuntu 22.04 kernel is 5.18.xx I think. Something in the newer kernel causes the problem. I don't think there is an easy fix for that, other than loading an earlier version of Linux or recompiling Euphoria. See https://openeuphoria.org/forum/m/136073.wc Note: If you do that, your executable probably won't run on older systems though.

For my programs, I just bind or shroud them. There's no significant difference in speed between the bound and the compiled versions. There's little difference in memory required, either.
