Update: Re: Perl calling C calling Ruby (linking problem)

From: "Peter Munro" <pete-ruby@...>
Date: 2002-08-14 18:52:05 UTC
List: ruby-talk #47248
Hi,

Just wanted to update you on a problem I've been having, so that this
appears in the archives and it may help someone else.

I'm calling Ruby embedded from a Perl script using swig. I'd been
getting errors like this when calling out to Ruby extensions (like
digest/MD5):

> The error is:
> $ perl test.pl
> Ruby exception: /opt/lib/ruby/1.6/i686-linux/digest/md5.so: undefined symbol: rb_cObject ->  /opt/lib/ruby/1.6/i686-linux/digest/md5.so
> $

The problem was in the way I'd built Ruby. I'd done the normal:
  ./configure && make && make install

But this builds static libraries (libruby.a). I'd found out I needed to
build a dynamic one (libruby.so), so I'd gone back to my build
directory and done:
  ./configure --enable-shared && make && make install

This then created libruby.so. BUT this didn't re-build all the
extension libraries. In particular:
      $ ldd /opt/lib/ruby/1.6/i686-linux/digest/md5.so
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4000e000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)
      $

As you can see, there's no mention of libruby.so. And comparing an
strace across two machines showed me that my script was opening md5.so,
but _not_ digest.so. I then removed my Ruby build directory, the Ruby
libraries (md5.so etc), re-extracted Ruby from the tarball, and
re-built everything as above with the --enable-shared option. This gave
me:

      $ ldd /opt/lib/ruby/1.6/i686-linux/digest/md5.so
        libruby.so.1.6 => /opt/lib/libruby.so.1.6 (0x40003000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x400a1000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40145000)
        libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x4014a000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x40177000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)
      $

That did the trick.

Many thanks to Nobu Nakada and Guy Decoux for their help.

Best regards,
Peter Munro
