Hi
I'm trying to run a program to talk to a device.
When I do make, make install, and run in terminal using this Makefile, this program works.
The makefile is following:
# Current Version of the driver
VERSION=1.37

SRCS = pmd.c usb-1208FS.c
HEADERS = pmd.h usb-1208FS.h
OBJS = $(SRCS:.c=.o) # same list as SRCS with extension changed
CC=gcc
CFLAGS= -g -Wall -fPIC -O
TARGETS=libmcchid.so libmcchid.a tipsy_text
ID=MCCLIBHID
DIST_NAME=$(ID).$(VERSION).tgz
DIST_FILES={README,Makefile,usb-1208FS.h,usb-1208FS.c,pmd.h,pmd.c,tipsy_text.c}
###### RULES
all: $(TARGETS)

%.d: %.c
set -e; $(CC) -I. -M $(CPPFLAGS) $< \
| sed 's/\($*\)\.o[ :]*/\1.o $@ : /g' > $@; \
[ -s $@ ] || rm -f $@
ifneq ($(MAKECMDGOALS),clean)
include $(SRCS:.c=.d)
endif

libmcchid.so: $(OBJS)
$(CC) -O -shared -Wall $(OBJS) -o $@

libmcchid.a: $(OBJS)
ar -r libmcchid.a $(OBJS)
ranlib libmcchid.a

tipsy_text: tipsy_text.c libmcchid.a
$(CC) -static -g -Wall -I. -o $@ $@.c -lmcchid -L. -lm -L/usr/local/lib -lhid -lusb

clean:
rm -rf *.d *.o *~ *.a *.so $(TARGETS)

dist:
make clean
cd ..; tar -zcvf $(DIST_NAME) libhid/$(DIST_FILES);

install:
-install -d /usr/local/lib
-install -c --mode=0755 ./libmcchid.a libmcchid.so /usr/local/lib
-/bin/ln -s /usr/local/lib/libmcchid.so /usr/lib/libmcchid.so
-/bin/ln -s /usr/local/lib/libmcchid.a /usr/lib/libmcchid.a
-install -d /usr/local/include/libhid
-install -c --mode=0644 ${HEADERS} /usr/local/include/libhid/

uninstall:
-rm -f /usr/local/lib/libmcchid*
-rm -f /usr/lib/libmcchid*
-rm -rf /usr/local/include/libhid


But if I build and run the same files in Fedora Eclipse, the error message appears: /home/misungs/workspace/tipsy_text/Debug/tipsy_text: error while loading shared libraries: libhid.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

In addition, because I don't want to install library all the time, I want to use the following makefile:

all: tipsy_text.exe
clean:
rm *.o tipsy_text.exe

tipsy_text.exe: tipsy_text.o usb-1208FS.o pmd.o
g++ -g -o tipsy_text.exe tipsy_text.o usb-1208FS.o pmd.o -L/usr/local/lib -lmcchid -lhid -lusb

tipsy_text.o: tipsy_text.c usb-1208FS.h pmd.h
g++ -c -g tipsy_text.c

usb-1208FS.o: usb-1208FS.c usb-1208FS.h pmd.h
g++ -c -g usb-1208FS.c

pmd.o: pmd.c pmd.h
g++ -c -g pmd.c

When I tried to run this, the same error appeared in Eclipse.

libhid.so.0 is located in /usr/local/lib, and I designated the library path in Eclipse. I can't understand why this error appears.
Thanks for reading this, and I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

See man ldconfig. It may help

Dave

Thanks for your advice.

I tried ldconfig -v, but it didn't worked; probably I didn't use "ldconfig" properly.

In addition, when I use my makefile in terminal,
this error follows:
[root@tipsy tipsy_text]# make
g++ -c -g tipsy_text.c
In file included from pmd.h:39,
from tipsy_text.c:17:
/usr/local/include/hid.h:76: error: typedef ‘_Bool’ is initialized (use __typeof__ instead)
/usr/local/include/hid.h:76: error: ‘matcher_fn_t’ was not declared in this scope
/usr/local/include/hid.h:83: error: ‘matcher_fn_t’ does not name a type
/usr/local/include/hid.h:128: error: ‘_Bool’ does not name a type
/usr/local/include/hid.h:137: error: ‘_Bool’ does not name a type
make: *** [tipsy_text.o] Error 1
How can I solve this?

These are errors in the header file /usr/local/include/hid.h that was included from pmd.h line 39 that was called from tipsy_text.c (line 17). Since you couldn't find the shared lib file libhid.so.0 before, I'd say you found it now. :-(

I try locating the libhid.so.0 file using "locate libhid.so.0" at a command line, and, if found, creating a symlink in a standard lib location to it.

I'm a newbie and cannot handle linux easily, but the problem is partly solved

My program is built and runs in Eclipse after linking the program to .so file using more /etc/ld.so.conf/d, /sbin/ldconfig.

When I compile the program in terminal,however, following error still occurs:
[misungs@tipsy tipsy_text]$ make
g++ -c -g tipsy_text.c
In file included from pmd.h:40,
from tipsy_text.c:18:
