Title: undefined reference to in time.h functions
Post by: blackdiamond on October 02, 2015, 01:14:16 PM

Hi !!

I have tried to compile the next example under tiny core , 4.6.2 version under INTEL Pentium Desk top board.


My compilation has "undefined reference to XXXX" errors for clock_settime, clock_getres and clock_gettime functions...

The function nanosleep works fine with no errors on compilation when it is the only instruction enabled...

I wonder what is going wrong as the time.h extern references are under the same nanosleep section of the header.


Any hint ????

Thanks

Sal...

    printf(" tiempo transcurrido = %11u nanosegundos\n",(long long unsigned int diff));

    if ( nanosleep(&tim,&tim2) < 0)
    {
        printf("nano sleep fallo\n");
    }
    printf("exito !!!\n");

}


the time.h has the next

#iddef __USE_POSIX199309

extern int nanosleep(__const struct timespec *__requested_time, struct timespec *__remaining);

extern int clock_getres( clockid_t__clock_id, struct timespec *__res)__THROW;

extern int clock_getime( clockid_t__clock_id, struct timespec *__tp)__THROW;

extern int clock_settime( clockid_t__clock_id, struct timespec *__tp)__THROW;

#ifdef __USE_XOPEN2K
.....
#endif

Hi blackdiamond
What happens if you do this:

Code: [Select]

#define __USE_POSIX199309

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/io.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/signal.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <termios.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include "rs232.h"
#include "timer.h"
#include "time.h"

Hi blackdiamond
I think my previous answer may be the wrong way to do this. Try:

Code: [Select]

#define _POSIX_C_SOURCE 199309L

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/io.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/signal.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <termios.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include "rs232.h"
#include "timer.h"
#include "time.h"
You might also need to add  -lrt  to the end of your  gcc  command.

As Rich says, the manpage for those functions tells you you need to link with -lrt.

Thanks !!!

I will test it next monday, we use tiny core for magnetic ticket encoding using a shaft encoder, the resolution of the encoder is well to record the ticket, but for reading we want to use time comparision with nanoseconds measuring.

Tiny core is the platform we use on Automatic Fare Collection Equipment we renew in my job ....

LARGA VIDA A TINY CORE !!!!!
