libfmodstudio and c++11

jpopcenter · January 30, 2014, 5:11pm

Hi,

I’m working on an OSX/IOS application using c++11.
However, when i try to compile the IOS Simulator version, it can’t link against libfmodstudio_iphonesimulator.a because of a problem related to the used c++ library implementation.
It seems that libfmodstudio_iphonesimulator.a needs to link against libstdc++ while my application needs libc++.
How can i deal with that ?

The OSX version compiles successfully.

Thanks.

Here is the errors :

Could you send a modified FMOD example that exhibits this problem to support@fmod.org and I’ll investigate.

jpopcenter · January 31, 2014, 2:46am

First, thanks for your quick answer

I’ve created a small project at https://github.com/kdridi/FMODSample that reflects my problem.

[list]
[] The first commit only imports the various FMOD samples i found on your website.[/15ff9msf]
[] On the second commit, i’ve configured the IOS samples in order to link them with -stdlib=libstdc++. Everything works fine.[/15ff9msf]
[] Then, on the third commit, i’ve configured the IOS samples in order to link them with -stdlib=libc++ and then the problem occurs.[/15ff9msf][/list:u:15ff9msf]

It’s kinda annoying knowing that my entire project use many c++11 features that are only available with the libc++ but it seems that FMOD use libstdc++.

Those problems doesn’t exist with the OSX version thanks to the dynamic linked library you provide that has already been linked with the libstdc++ STL implementation.

I think that you’ll need to provide both versions, the libc++ linked one and the libstdc++ linked one, for your static libraries (i.e. the IOS libfmod*.a).

I hope to hear quick news from this post and i wish you a very good day

Thanks for the sample, I’m treating this as a bug since we don’t want to preclude C++11 developers from using FMOD.

Having a separate library linked with libc++ would be my last resort, I am investigating completely removing our dependency on STL at this stage.

I hope to have this fixed up for our next release.

jpopcenter · February 3, 2014, 4:56am

Thank you for your quick answer !

I know that my request is quite difficult to handle knowing that switching over STL implementations certainly need some tests on your side.

Unfortunately, i don’t think we’ve got a lot of time here waiting for the next FMOD release due to a release date for our game that comes very soon and we switch over FMOD a few weeks ago for the MAC version that works well. At that time i didn’t notice the IOS problem and now it’s quick painful to me to switch back to my previous-homemade-ugly sound engine :oops:

However, i tried to import the missing STL functions, using what i found at http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/libstdcxx/libstdcxx-56/src/tree.cc, in the projet that now compiles and seems to work well… thank’s god

I’ve committed this workaround in the previous project and if you’re interested, please have a look at https://github.com/kdridi/FMODSample.git

Again, thank a lot for your quick answers and i hope i’ll get some good news for the next FMOD release soon

Have a nice day !

Sorry for the long delay, as you expected removing the offending STL took a little while. I’m glad you have a work around in place.

With the release of 1.3 we will no longer be dependent on STL, so this problem will be solved.
