Hi,

I'm a new org user, and I'm sorry if I'm missing something obvious. When
executing a C code snippet with org-babel, that contains a math function, I
get the famous "undefined reference" errors. I tried adding ":flags -lm",
but that doesn't help. Looking at the code, it seems the -lm flag is
inserted in the wrong place, before the source file. An easy change would
be in line 147 of ob-C.el version 8.3.4-634, moving "flags" to after the
source file. This seems to work, but I don't know if it would break
anything else.

A minimal working example, attached, includes the following snippet:

#+BEGIN_SRC C :includes '(<math.h> <stdio.h>) :flags -lm
int i=9;
printf("%d\n",(int)sqrt(i));
#+END_SRC

Note the issue disappears if constants are directly used rather than
variables, presumably because the function call is optimized away entirely.

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Oz

FWIW, I get

  #+BEGIN_SRC C :includes '(<math.h> <stdio.h>) :flags -lm
  int i=9;
  printf("%d\n",(int)sqrt(i));
  #+END_SRC

without any error.

I get the same problem, Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS, GNU Emacs 24.3.1, Org-mode
version 8.2.10. So maybe it got fixed at some point since these versions
are about two years old?

I get the right answer on a Mac with org-mode version 8.2.10

I can't reproduce it either (with fairly recent emacs and bleeding-edge
org-mode, but the code in question has not changed since 8.2.7 or so).

The command that is executed looks like this:

  gcc -o /tmp/babel-212464kj/C-bin-21246R6L -lm /tmp/babel-212464kj/C-src-21246EwF.c

and that should work fine for gcc: you don't need to have the -lm after the
source file.

You can test that that's the case: put your program into a file, say foo.c, and
execute

  gcc -o foo.out -lm foo.c

Does that give you undefined references?

Does for me. gcc --version says
gcc (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04) 4.8.4

So is it gcc that has changed then?

Possibly. I use

gcc (GCC) 5.3.1 20151207 (Red Hat 5.3.1-2)

on Fedora 22.

To summarize this thread:
It seems there was an issue long ago.
Version 5 of GCC magically fixed it.
But it is still here for older compilers.

-------------------------

To debug, execute the following piece of lisp code:

    (defadvice org-babel-eval (before xxx (cmd body))
      ""
      (message "org-babel-eval : %s" cmd))
    (ad-activate 'org-babel-eval)

The actual compilation command will be displayed in the *Messages* buffer.

With your example, we get

   gcc -o /tmp/babel-8412zIw/C-bin-8412IZR -lm
/tmp/babel-8412zIw/C-src-84127OL.c

--------------------------

You are right, Oz, this can be fixed in line 147.
But :flags is intended for flags like -g or -O, which need to appear
before the source file.

Probably we are missing an additional flag, which could be named :libs
Then your example would be:

  #+BEGIN_SRC C :includes '(<math.h> <stdio.h>) :libs -lm
  int i=9;
  printf("%d\n",(int)sqrt(i));
  #+END_SRC

--------------------------

Oz, do you think you would be able to provide a patch?
The way to contribute is documented here:

Thanks for reporting.
Thierry

Thanks for the response.

On my machine, I get the undefined references even with GCC 5 (gcc version
5.2.1 20151010 (Ubuntu 5.2.1-22ubuntu2)), if I put -lm before the source
file name.

As far as a patch, I can try but this would be my first time really playing
with org-mode code. As far as I can see, I would need to add the following
lines in ob-C.el:
L133: (libs (cdr (assoc :libs params)))
         (libs (mapconcat 'identity
               (if (listp libs) libs (list libs)) " "))
L142: (format "%s -o %s %s %s %s" ;; (added %s)
L147: libs

Am I missing anything?
