Building on Linux - crash on NewtonCreate()

[pHySiQuE]

I am building Newton for Linux, inside a static library.

When I use Newton in a C++ executable on Linux, it works fine.

When I build Newton into a static library with the rest of my game engine, and then import the library into another executable, the executable crashes when run with a message "segmentation fault (core dumped)".

The crash occurs in NewtonCreate():

Code: Select all

NewtonWorld* NewtonCreate()
{
   TRACE_FUNCTION(__FUNCTION__);
   dgMemoryAllocator* const allocator = new dgMemoryAllocator();

   //============================================================
   NewtonWorld* const world = (NewtonWorld*) new (allocator) Newton (dgFloat32(1.0f), allocator); // crash occurs here
   //============================================================

   return world;
}

All preprcessor directives are the same in the standalone and static library builds. Any idea what could be wrong here?

what do you mean inopot the library? libar do not get importerd thay are just a collection of .o files tha you link to.
In the demos I link the the .a libraries, in linux.

I will check this weekend, maybe soemtho is new .

My game engine is compiled as a static library. Newton is compiled into this as C++ code.

My editor imports the game engine static library when it is compiled.

If there isn't something you already know, I would not worry about this. The problem is probably on my end. I just got the Code::Blocks debugger working and I will keep working on this myself. Thank you.
