[Bug 1510042] Re: linking against -ljsoncpp fails with clang

 

This bug was fixed in the package llvm-toolchain-3.8 - 1:3.8.1-3ubuntu1

---------------
llvm-toolchain-3.8 (1:3.8.1-3ubuntu1) yakkety; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian; remaining changes:

llvm-toolchain-3.8 (1:3.8.1-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Add -gsplit-dwarf to CXXFLAGS to workaround the memory allocation
    issue on i386 (hopefully)

llvm-toolchain-3.8 (1:3.8.1-2ubuntu2) yakkety; urgency=medium

  * Add support for gcc's attribute abi_tag (needed for compatibility with
    GCC 5's libstdc++); taken from the trunk. Closes: #797038. LP: #1510042.

Bug description:
  SRU acceptance criteria:  the example successfully links.

  On updating ubuntu from 15.04 to 15.10, I see changes in how clang
  resolves references to some libraries. (I think this is not an ubuntu
  question but rather a clang question and that I've missed some
  subtlety on how clang has recently changed.  I suspect initially that
  this is related to the gcc-5 ABI changes, but I'm not sure how to
  proceed.)

  Here's a tiny test example designed only to tickle the phenomenon:

  #include <jsoncpp/json/json.h>
  #include <iostream>

  int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
      std::cout << argc << " - " << argv[0] << std::endl;
      Json::Reader reader;
      Json::Value root;
      reader.parse("", root, false);
      std::cout << reader.getFormattedErrorMessages() << std::endl;
      return 0;
  }

  If I compile like this

  clang++ -ggdb3 -Wall -Wextra -std=c++14 -o json_test json_test.cc
  -ljsoncpp

  /tmp/json_test-680d3a.o: In function `main':
  /tmp/json_test.cc:10: undefined reference to `Json::Reader::getFormattedErrorMessages() const'
  clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

  And yet the definition appears to be present:

  jeff@birdsong:src $ objdump -TC /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libjsoncpp.so | grep getFormatted
  000000000000e190 g    DF .text  00000000000004d2  Base        Json::OurReader::getFormattedErrorMessages[abi:cxx11]() const
  000000000000dc70 g    DF .text  00000000000004d2  Base        Json::Reader::getFormattedErrorMessages[abi:cxx11]() const
  jeff@birdsong:src $

  The abi:cxx11 suggests I might at least try this

  clang++ -ggdb3 -Wall -Wextra -std=c++11 -o json_test json_test.cc
  -ljsoncpp

  but same error. On the other hand, this works fine:

  g++ -ggdb3 -Wall -Wextra -std=c++14 -o json_test json_test.cc
  -ljsoncpp

  Fwiw, here's version info:
