I'm having a problem with uninitialized static class members in GCC
C++ 2.2.2.
Basically, if I only define the static class member inside the class
(without explicitly initializing it), I get a link-time undefined
symbol error.
I was under the impression that I didn't have to provide any
definition (in addition to what is present in the header) for
uninitialized static class members.
Thomas.
PS: A little more concretely:
struct NISTDigitImages {
static int *table;
...
};
...
gcc -L/homes/tmb/src/nvis/lib rec-gh.o loadihdr.o ihead.o g4decomp.o winlib.o -lX11 -lvis -lm -o rec-gh
ld: Undefined symbol
__15NISTDigitImages$table
collect: /usr/bin/ld returned 2 exit status
make: *** [rec-gh] Error 1
