Skipping Incompatible Libraries at compile

by

That message isn’t actually an error – it’s just a warning that the file in question isn’t of the right architecture (e.g. 32-bit vs 64-bit, wrong CPU architecture). The linker will keep looking for a library of the right type.

Of course, if you’re also getting an error along the lines of can't find lPI-Http then you have a problem 🙂

It’s hard to suggest what the exact remedy will be without knowing the details of your build system and makefiles, but here are a couple of shots in the dark:

  1. Just to check: usually you would add
    flags to CFLAGS rather than
    CTAGS – are you sure this is
    correct? (What you have may be correct – this will depend on your build system!)
  2. Often the flag needs to be passed to the linker too – so you may also need to modify LDFLAGS

If that doesn’t help – can you post the full error output, plus the actual command (e.g. gcc foo.c -m32 -Dxxx etc) that was being executed?
