digitalmars.D.learn - D with gmp via swig

Hello I am trying to get to a gmp interface for D2. I have some trouble to get
that to work, however. Perhaps someone has an idea what I am doing wrong. I
must admit I am not sure this is a D issue or a swig issue or something else.

The interface file for swig

cat gmpd.i
%module gmpd
%{
#include "gmp.h"
%}

%include "gmp.h"


A main with a call to gmpd

cat main.d
import std.stdio;
import gmpd;

void main() {
        writeln("Hello");
}

This is what I do then:
/usr/local/swig-204/bin/swig -I/usr/include/ -d -d2 gmpd.i

/opt/usr/local/bin/gdc -c main.d
/opt/usr/local/bin/gdc -c gmpd.d
/opt/usr/local/bin/gdc -c gmpd_im.d

/opt/usr/local/bin/gdc -c gmpd_wrap.c
/opt/usr/local/bin/gdc main.o -oa.out gmpd.o gmpd_im.o gmpd_wrap.o -lgmp

I get messages of the type:

/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.5/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld:
__gmp_set_memory_functions: TLS definition in gmpd_im.o section .tbss
mismatches non-TLS reference in gmpd_wrap.o
gmpd_wrap.o: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


I have tried dmd and/or gcc (for the wrapper compilation and linking) but no
joy.
 Also -fPIC did not help.

Thanks,
Oliver

This will be a bug in swig.  Whatever storage class it is setting
__gmp_set_memory_functions, it is wrong (I assume it should be defining it as
__gshared).

Thanks Iain,

I'll contact the swig team about it.

SWIG currently only supports dynamically loading the wrapper library. 
Drop -lgmp and gmpd_wrap.o when linking the D executable and compile a 
shared library (.so, .dylib/.bundle, .dll) out of the wrapper code 
instead (by default, the name would be libgmpd_wrap.<ext>).

Thanks David,

so when I

gcc -fPIC -c gmpd_wrap.c
gcc -shared -Wl,-soname,libgmpd_wrap.so.1 -o libgmpd_wrap.so.1.0.1 gmpd_wrap.o
-lgmp

ln -s libgmpd_wrap.so.1.0.1 libgmpd_wrap.so

/opt/usr/local/bin/gdc main.d gmpd.d gmpd_im.d -I. -L. -lgmpd_wrap

I get the
/usr/bin/ld: __gmpn_ior_n: TLS definition in /tmp/ccmF49fr.o section .tbss
mismatches non-TLS reference in ./libgmpd_wrap.so
./libgmpd_wrap.so: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

again, a mismatch.

You don't need to link the .so in (although I'm surprised to see that it 
produces linker errors, I didn't remember that there are name collisions 
with the default settings), it will be loaded at runtime.

This decision was made to easily support Windows, where the COFF/OMF 
situation complicates matters a lot…

David, thanks this seems to work.

/opt/usr/local/bin/gdc main.d gmpd.d gmpd_im.d

I did have to copy the libgmpd_wrap* to some place were the linker could find
it,
of course.

Alternatively, you could set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to where your library 
resides. If there is demand, I could definitely look into adding static 
linking support to SWIG (it is on the TODO list already), but currently, 
I'm rather busy with my Thrift GSoC project.

David, I do not have any preference - I think, however, as a quick fix, it might
be beneficial to add the current status, that a) you need dynamic linking and b)
that -L. -lgmpd_wrap does not work as expected to the documentation. That would
have helped me.

Shouldn't there be an interface to GMP and MPFR in Phobos by default?
