Hi,

Maybe someone out there can help me (please!!!)...

I'm in the process of switching from cc to gcc on a Sun 4/330.  Everything
compiles just fine, but when it comes time to link, I get an Undefined symbol:

It seems that ld is looking for __GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ but can't find it.  So
my question is, where is __GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ defined???

Thanks!

- Marc

Here's what I get from gcc:

gcc -o forces forces_client.o build_forces.o deploy_forces.o  edit_forces.o trac
k_maint.o start_motion.o track_dbase.o -g  /home2/map/lib/Map/libXtMap.a /home2/
map/lib/ltdb/libXtltdb.a /home2/map/lib/Xm/libXm.a /home2/map/lib/Xm/libXtm.a -l
X11 -lm
BulletinB.o: Undefined symbol __GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ referenced from text segmen
t
BulletinB.o: Undefined symbol __GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ referenced from text segmen

...
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `forces'
