g++ - linking stage (-L flag) not working
I am new to C++ and am trying to figure out where in the compiling process my error is. Apologies, if this question is unclear, I'm not sure what information to provide.
Reference information: The directory "mbedtls/lib/" contains two .a (archive) files, "libmbedtls_SGX_t.a" and "libmbedtls_SGX_u.a".
I am using a Makefile, which runs the following commands in order. The commands seem to run error free:
cc -m64 -O2 -fPIC -Wno-attributes -IApp -I/opt/intel/sgxsdk/include -Imbedtls/include -DNDEBUG -UEDEBUG -UDEBUG -c App/Enclave_u.c -o App/Enclave_u.o
g++ -m64 -O2 -fPIC -Wno-attributes -IApp -I/opt/intel/sgxsdk/include -Imbedtls/include -DNDEBUG -UEDEBUG -UDEBUG -std=c++11 -c App/App.cpp -o App/App.o
g++ -m64 -O2 -fPIC -Wno-attributes -IApp -I/opt/intel/sgxsdk/include -Imbedtls/include -DNDEBUG -UEDEBUG -UDEBUG -std=c++11 -c App/sgx_utils/sgx_utils.cpp -o App/sgx_utils/sgx_utils.o
After running those commands, it runs this command:
g++ App/Enclave_u.o App/App.o App/sgx_utils/sgx_utils.o -o app -m64 -O2 -L/opt/intel/sgxsdk/lib64 -lsgx_urts_sim -lpthread -Lmbedtls/lib/ -lsgx_uae_service_sim
However, this command produces an error:

I don't know why this error is being produced. My last command includes the flag -Lmbedtls/lib/
which should resolve these undefined references by linking the archive files (specifically - libmbedtls_SGX_u.a) to the executable. However, clearly this is not happening.
Do I need to link the archive files earlier in the compile process? I.e - instead of using the flag -Lmbedtls/lib/
in the final g++ command, should I be using it in both of the previous g++ commands?
Update: Adding the flag -Lmbedtls/lib/
to the previous 2 g++ commands (the ones that generated App.o and sgx_utils.o) did not change anything. The error remains.

The implication is that whenever you tell your toolchain to link something you have to name the object files/libraries in an order where the ones that come first are the ones that consume/use symbols and the ones that provide the implementation come after.

As has been mentioned in the comment, only specifying a directory with -L
without specifying the name of a library in that directory is useless.
So you have to additionally specify the library names with -l
.
So instead of:
g++ App/Enclave_u.o App/App.o App/sgx_utils/sgx_utils.o -o app -m64 -O2
-L/opt/intel/sgxsdk/lib64 -lsgx_urts_sim -lpthread
-Lmbedtls/lib/
-lsgx_uae_service_sim
Use:
g++ App/Enclave_u.o App/App.o App/sgx_utils/sgx_utils.o -o app -m64 -O2
-L/opt/intel/sgxsdk/lib64 -lsgx_urts_sim -lpthread
-Lmbedtls/lib/ -lmbedtls_SGX_t -lmbedtls_SGX_u
-lsgx_uae_service_sim
I ran the commandg++ App/Enclave_u.o App/App.o App/sgx_utils/sgx_utils.o -o app -m64 -O2 -L/opt/intel/sgxsdk/lib64 -lsgx_urts_sim -lpthread -Lmbedtls/lib/ -llibmbedtls_SGX_u -lsgx_uae_service_sim
because I only wanted to linklibmbedtls_SGX_u.a
. However, suprisingly, I am getting the error: "cannot find -llibmbedtls_SGX_u" even though I am very sure that "libmbedtls_SGX_u.a" is inside of the "mbedtls/lib" directory.

The command-l
is peculiar. You have to specify the library name without the leadinglib
. So it's just-lmbedtls_SGX_u
instead of-llibmbedtls_SGX_u
. My initial answer was partially incorrect in that respect and you have probably been very quick in copying it.
– Codo
Nov 12 '18 at 22:32
Oh whoops, I thought you made a mistake by omitting the lib, so I left it in.

Where can I go to learn more about how to use the g++ compiler, so I can avoid making these mistakes in the future?

As has been mentioned in the comment, only specifying a directory with -L
without specifying the name of a library in that directory is useless.
So you have to additionally specify the library names with -l
.
So instead of:
g++ App/Enclave_u.o App/App.o App/sgx_utils/sgx_utils.o -o app -m64 -O2
-L/opt/intel/sgxsdk/lib64 -lsgx_urts_sim -lpthread
-Lmbedtls/lib/
-lsgx_uae_service_sim
Use:
g++ App/Enclave_u.o App/App.o App/sgx_utils/sgx_utils.o -o app -m64 -O2
-L/opt/intel/sgxsdk/lib64 -lsgx_urts_sim -lpthread
-Lmbedtls/lib/ -lmbedtls_SGX_t -lmbedtls_SGX_u
-lsgx_uae_service_sim
I ran the commandg++ App/Enclave_u.o App/App.o App/sgx_utils/sgx_utils.o -o app -m64 -O2 -L/opt/intel/sgxsdk/lib64 -lsgx_urts_sim -lpthread -Lmbedtls/lib/ -llibmbedtls_SGX_u -lsgx_uae_service_sim
because I only wanted to linklibmbedtls_SGX_u.a
. However, suprisingly, I am getting the error: "cannot find -llibmbedtls_SGX_u" even though I am very sure that "libmbedtls_SGX_u.a" is inside of the "mbedtls/lib" directory.

The command-l
is peculiar. You have to specify the library name without the leadinglib
. So it's just-lmbedtls_SGX_u
instead of-llibmbedtls_SGX_u
. My initial answer was partially incorrect in that respect and you have probably been very quick in copying it.

In general you should mention files referencing a symbol before the file providing the symbol. Many (not all, but most) linkers will discard any symbol that they have not seen a previous reference to.

@JesperJuhl Can you explain what the implications of your statement are in terms of the commands I should be executing?
– Roymunson
Nov 12 '18 at 22:16
The implication is that whenever you tell your toolchain to link something you have to name the object files/libraries in an order where the ones that come first are the ones that consume/use symbols and the ones that provide the implementation come after.
