Hi, 

I am having some issues building a C/ProC application on Solaris 9 (cc: Sun C 
5.8 2005/10/13, Oracle 9):

The project includes several components linked together with a number of KERNEL 
(code N/A) libraries to provide the final binary.

My problem is that i get a bunch of undefined symbols in the linking stage. 
However, i'm quite sure that the linker is informed properly of the whereabouts 
of the libraries (using -L and -l) and the libraries seem to contain the 
symbols that are reported as missing (verified by use of nm/elfdump).

I understand that there might incompatibilities between the libraries as of 
code addressing. I use the -xarch=v9 and -KPIC options to compile but i'm not 
sure how the libraries where built. If there indeed were any such issues 
wouldn't i get an ELF class related warning along with the missing symbols? All 
libraries seem to be of uniform type anyway (elfdump -e).

Would there happen to be any suggestions as to why the linker cannot locate 
symbols available in a successfuly linked library??? And by "successfully 
linked" I mean that the library itself is located properly (if say i rename it 
i obviously get the "cannot locate file message"...)

I'm at a loss... I've scanned through most of the posts... please excuse me if 
i've missed smth. please feel free to redirect me... 

best regards
Nik
