Re: [poppler] Static build
Wow. What a wild ride. Once you type "ldd pdf2svg" and you really see "Not a dynamic executable" after literally days of work you almost cannot believe it's true. Thank you so much, Jeroen! It took me a while to finally figure it all out, but I eventually managed to build a static pdf2svg binary. The single sentence below from you was very short and (for me) initially *extremely* cryptic (I'm no expert on all this stuff, mind you) but turned out to be one of the wisest tips I ever got in IT. So much cleverness crammed into one single sentence. I just had to trust exactly what you said and diligently follow through and solve every single compilation error and consequence that resulted out of it. I posted on the relevant pdf2svg issue how I've finally managed to put everything together in case some else finds it useful: https://github.com/dawbarton/pdf2svg/issues/5 Am 05.12.18 um 17:53 schrieb Jeroen Ooms: When static linking you need to include the linker flags for all the dependencies. ___ poppler mailing list poppler@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/poppler

Hm.

Your linking error occurs because you're missing -lfreetype. When static linking you need to include the linker flags for all the dependencies. Unfortunately poppler does not correctly record it's private dependencies in the pkg-config file, but try linking with these flags: pkg-config --libs --static poppler-cpp cairo lcms2 libopenjp2 libtiff-4 ___ poppler mailing list poppler@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/poppler
Re: [poppler] Static build
Hmm. I think it doesnt work that easily. Actually, I'm trying to build a static pdf2svg which users poppler in turn. I tried to follow your advice and installed libcairo-dev, libopenjp2-7-dev, libjpeg-dev, etc. and then simply compiled poppler with -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF.

[poppler] Static build
Hi all, I'm desperately trying to create a fully static build without any dependencies. I already got pretty far (IMHO) and build lots and lots of other dependent libaries statically (cairo, freetype etc.) without encountering any major problems. Now, with poppler, I got a first compilation error but could solve it as discussed here: https://www.mail-archive.com/poppler@lists.freedesktop.org/msg10543.html With this patch: https://github.com/mpsuzuki/poppler/commit/3f944ed5dee3496e7a7c661eabc3b16448316d13 Which worked fabulously. This should definitely be included in the main poppler branch, I guess, as it looks like it doesnt hurt anyone who isnt compiling statically - but OTOH is hugely helpful for those like me who dare to try it.

Re: [poppler] Static build of utils
Thanks Patrick, I guess I should try again to build with mingw to get away from the cygwin issues. Just that cygwin has most of the dependencies if you hunt through the package list, and I didn't have much luck with mingw on the first attempt. Ideally I would like to deploy to various windows machines just by dropping in an exe, without having to install a load of stuff. I guess if I have all the dll's this might not be a problem. We have an old pdf2xml.exe for example that does just this, built against the original xpdf libraries. mike On 15 April 2010 10:57, Patrick Spendrin ps...@gmx.de wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Am 13.04.2010 18:34, schrieb Mike Tonks: Hi, Is it easy to build the utils statically - I would really like a statically linked pdftohtml.exe (on Windows).

Well, the problem is to have all your dependencies as static libraries as well. For me this freetype, jpeg, openjpeg, lcms, libpng, for you also cygwin*, which you would all need as static libraries as well. This is probably much harder than getting poppler itself building statically (you already do not have any dependency on libpoppler at all for pdftohtml). You can see the dependencies of your .exe or your dll with depends.exe (Dependency Walker, search for it on google). - From my point of view, I would rethink why you need a static file. mike regards, Patrick * it might be even impossible to have a static cygwin.dll ___ poppler mailing list poppler@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/poppler -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.10 (MingW32) iEYEARECAAYFAkvG4xMACgkQi49rfdk/G3blRwCfb33BJKm6y7W/86GHT7J6Ksyi 1BYAoJqVM/l+nR/WeYxLX0XPuXcYJsnU =YZ+P -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ poppler mailing list poppler@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/poppler ___ poppler mailing list poppler@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/poppler
