[omniORB] omniORB 4.0.2/4.0.3 build error on Win XP - solved

[jon.kristensen at kongsberg.com]

Hi Frédéric,

I have not investigated this further, but I assume that the build process 
uses the binaries in the bin\x86_win32 directory somehow, and that the 
entry in my PATH variable caused the wrong (old) binaries to be called. 
This in turn produced "unlinkable" object files. I expect the omniORB 
developers may know more about this.

Regards
Jon.

Hi Jon,
 
do you mean the PATH is used at link time by the Microsoft linker ?
 
or do you use another link tool than MSVStudio ?
 
Thanks

Duncan, 

I sent an email on November 11th complaining that omniORB 4.0.2 did not 
build on my XP machine. I have now downloaded 4.0.3 and saw see exactly 
the same thing. What happened is that the build process failed to link 
omniDynamic403_rt.dll. I got 632 unresolved symbols. 

I have now found that this was caused by me having the "bin\x86_win32" 
directory of a previous version of omniORB listed in my PATH variable. 
Once I removed that entry from the path, everything builds as expected. 

Just wanted to inform you in case others experience the same. 

Thanks
