SYNOPSIS:
Making $TAO_ROOT/orbsvcs/orbsvcs/GNUmakefile.PortableGroup fails when having static_libs=1.
DESCRIPTION:
When using static_libs=1 and making $TAO_ROOT/orbsvcs/orbsvcs/GNUmakefile.PortableGroup, then make tries to build .obj/PortableGroupC.o before
compiling PortableGroup_Simple_DS.idl. But PortableGroupC.h includes PortableGroup_Simple_DSC.h (which still doesn't exist).
The reason for this is unknown to me.
This doesn't happen for .shobj/PortableGroupC.o.
REPEAT BY:
# Extract a fresh source tree from the distribution
cd ACE_wrappers
export ACE_ROOT=`pwd`
export TAO_ROOT=$ACE_ROOT/TAO
# fill in $ACE_ROOT/ace/config.h
# fill in $ACE_ROOT/include/makeinclude/platform_macros.GNU
make static_libs=1 -C $ACE_ROOT && make static_libs=1 -C $TAO_ROOT
SAMPLE FIX/WORKAROUND:
I have only a workaround: in GNUmakefile.PortableGroup, in the PortableGroup variable, move PortableGroup_Simple_DSC.cpp before PortableGroupC.cpp.
