Hi,
I've been able to link ioquake, but not without a small modification
to lib/Linker/LinkModules.cpp:427 where I had to add:
} else if (Dest->hasExternalLinkage() &&
Src->hasExternalLinkage()){
LinkFromSrc = true;//overwrite old value
LT = Src->getLinkage();//use src linkage
The reason is that two files both had a global function pointer
variable (due to #include's):
void ( *alEnable)( ALenum capability );
which got translated to:
@alEnable = globale void (i32)* null
Linking these resulted in an error (lib/Linker/LinkModules.cpp's
original catch-all on line 427), but our hack prevents this.
My question: does this change break certain design decisions,
optimisations, ...?
BTW, why are the error messages of the linker, as constructed by Error
(...,...), not shown on the command line?
Kind regards,
