text tools

text tools

[Rob Solomon]

Tried to compile one of the texttool examples.  This is the furthest I
got after having lots of trouble getting GNAT to find the sources.
I have lots of errors that I don't understand.  This is on Ubuntu 9.04
system w/ texttools installed via synaptic.

What's up with this?

1) Apparently the texttools authors simply ignored these warnings?

2) The library should be installed precompiled; why is GNAT
   recompiling it?

3) This appears to be a missing library.

Sorry I can't be much more help. I suggest you contact the texttools
authors directly.

This is wrong and is almost certainly the cause for all your problems.
Please read the contents of /usr/share/ada/adainclude/texttools.gpr
for instructions on how to properly use the installed package. For
background information, please read the Debian Policy for Ada[1],
chapter 5 "Using shared libraries".

[1] http://people.debian.org/~lbrenta/debian-ada-policy.html#Using-shared-libraries

Also, you should not have the sources of TextTools in your home
directory, only the examples you wish to compile.

By the way, I have been looking for a new maintainer for this package
for 18 months now. If nobody steps up, I will request removal of this
package and it will not be in the next release of Debian, to be frozen
in March 2010 and released some time later.

I'd offer to help, but from your response I think that would be a very
bad idea.  It seems that I don't know anything.

I didn't know anything either when I started packaging things for
Debian :) TextTools is one of the easiest packages to maintain so is a
good choice if you want to learn.  Any help is appreciated and
welcome.

The following basic.gpr is not working either:
with "texttools";
project basic is
   for Source_Dirs use (".");
   for Object_dir use "obj";
   for Exec_Dir use ".";
   for Main use ("basic");
   package Linker is
      for Default_Switches ("Ada") use ("/usr/lib/libtexttools.a");
   end linker;
end basic;

I tried this without first and then with the package Linker clause.
Neither works.  I get very similar errors to the first time I posted,
w/ lots of undefined and unlinkable symbols.

On my Debian (testing) system, I do not get the same errors as you do;
this seems to be a bug introduced by Ubuntu 9.04, so the only way I
can help you here is by saying "upgrade to Debian" :/

However, even on Debian there is a minor bug; /usr/lib/libtexttools.so
is not linked against libgnarl.so as it should.  A simple workaround
is to write the project file thus:

with "texttools";
project basic is
   for Source_Dirs use (".");
   for Object_dir use "obj";
   for Exec_Dir use ".";
   for Main use ("basic");
   package Linker is
      for Default_Switches ("Ada") use ("-lgnarl");
   end linker;
end basic;

which, on my system, results in a working executable.  For reference,
here are tha packages that I used:

ii  gnat               4.3.3-9 	The GNU Ada compiler
ii  gnat-4.3           4.3.4-4 	The GNU Ada compiler

Finally got it to work.  I also found that the order of these options
in the Linker clause is important.  This worked:

package Linker is
  for Default_Switches("Ada") use ("-lm","-lcurses","-lgnarl");
end linker;

I almost cannot believe it worked.

Now I have to try some of the other examples.

I tried all of the examples using the .gpr file as a template.  All
compiled and worked.

Now I need to understand more about how this works.

Thanks for all your help.

Re: text tools

[Ludovic Brenta]

Rob Solomon wrote:
> Now I need to understand more about how this works.

In a nutshell:

- The compiler (gcc-4.3) reads the Ada or C source files and produces
one object file per compilation unit.
- The archiver (ar) takes object files and concatenates them together
into a static library (lib*.a)
- The linker (ld) takes object files and produces a shared library
(lib*.so).  The object files for a shared library must have been
compiled with the option -fPIC to produce Position-Independent Code.
- The linker (ld) then takes object files, static libraries and shared
libraries to produce an executable file. It works this way:

1. It copies all the object files into the executable, adjusting
addresses as necessary.
2. If the object files in the executable call subprograms in the
static libraries, it copies the corresponding object files from the
static libraries into the executable, adjusting addresses as
necessary.
3. If the object files in the executable call subprograms in the
shared libraries, it does NOT copy them; instead, it inserts stub
subprograms into the executable.
4. When the program runs, the stubs call into the shared libraries.

gnatmake with a project file automates this. It decides when to call
gcc-4.3 (i.e. which Ada files need recompiling), then it calls
gnatbind and finally gnatlink, passing it all the static and shared
libraries as parameters. gnatlink in turn calls ld.

In your project, you do not produce any library, so you do not call ar
or ld explicitly. This was done on the build machine that produced the
binary packages libtexttools-dev and libtexttools2.0.5. What you do is
link the shared libraries into your executable, i.e. insert the stubs
into your executable. You can try:

ldd basic

to see which shared libraries "basic" will load at run time.
