Plugins - 64 bit linux

[Grzegorz Zieba]

When building Rob01Ex1 by make from RobWorkStudio/build/release, and
this plugin added to cmakelists, on 64bit Ubuntu Karmic, following
error occurs:

[ 93%] Built target RobWorkStudio
Linking CXX shared module ../../../../../libs/Release/libRob01Ex1.so
/usr/bin/ld: ../../../../../libs/Release/librwstudio.a
(RobWorkStudio.cpp.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.bss' can not
be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
../../../../../libs/Release/librwstudio.a: could not read symbols: Bad

make[1]: *** [src/plugins/Rob01ex1_2009/CMakeFiles/Rob01Ex1.dir/all]
Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

Is there a way to 'recompile with -fPIC, and where to set this flag?
When trying to compile the plugin within its folder, problems with:
QT4_WRAP_CPP(MocSrcFiles ${MocHeaderFiles})
make it impossible.

Hi Grzegorz

I have zero experience with running RW on 64bit-{linux,windows}, sorry.

To add  the PIC compiler flag you can probably insert the folowing into your project CMakeLists.txt file:

SET(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -fPIC")

Best regards

It finally worked, but another question is:

Why the "planning" plugin is not visible in RW on Linux, and it is in
Windows build? It is build correctly, libraries are in place, all the
build files as well. How should it be added?

[Jimmy Jorgensen]

First make sure that rw_planning.a exists in libs/release

Next check main.cpp in the function "getPlugins" if the planner plugin gets
added

Check if the planning plugin actually is loaded but the icon is
missing/empty. (if this is the case then you should still be able to push
the button in the toolbar)

Library exists, and all the built files as well.
Adding in main.cpp was commented by default (in two places).
Works now, obviously.
Thanks

[Jimmy Jorgensen]

Yes, the planning plugin uses beta functionality which is probably why it
was commented out.
