Re: STORAGE_ERROR in adainit

[James Alan Farrell <anonymous@anonymous.com>]

Sorry for my ignorance, what does top-posting mean?

I've tried changing the order that the libraries appear in the gcc -o
command.  Will that change the link order?  (I never make assumptions
like that)  Changing that order did not make a difference.

To follow up on my last post:
I created a small program with an ada library with one procedure that
does a Put_Line("I am in the ada library");  and two C libraries, one
with 

void lib1_func(void)
{
   printf("I am in C library1\n");
}

And the other with 

void lib2_func(void)
{
  printf("I am in C library2, calling C library1\n");
  lib1_func();
}


(each library has one object file with one procedure/function each)

Built everything and linked it all together and it worked fine.

I then replaced the ada library with the one we are developing
(libada_interface.a) and it still worked fine.  Then I replaced the C
libraries with the ones for the production program and I once again
got the error.  Finally I replaced the ada library back to the simple
test library, and I STILL got the error.

Conclusion:  Since the same problem showed up with both ada libraries
and only with the production C libraries, not the test C libraries,
there is something funky with one or more of our production C
libraries.

I have already tried to find any compiler/linker switches that are
different for these libraries than what I would expect but found
nothing.  I will continue to pursue this however.

Thank you,
