Linking Error :: Solaris 8 machine with 3rd party libraries

Question

Hi,
I am working on a Solaris8 migration project.
I need an explanation for a problem I have compiling a rather old program I am working with at work. I tried compiling it,
however I get a bunch of errors of the same type:
Undefined symbol first referenced in file

I can understand that it has to do with linking problems...Compiling is ok..
I am working on Solaris 8 machine with additional 3rd party libraries like rogue wave etc..
I have added the library path to the makefile with the -L option & also given the library name with -l option.
Any help would be appreciated...
regards

Answer 1

I am using FORTE 6 compiler on Solaris 8, & Rogue Wave Source Pro.
The LINK command is
$(ALTCC) -mt -library=rwtools7,iostream -staticlib=rwtools7,iostream -lCcFi -lCcDt /xenv/RK
Curves/sun4/5.x/1.0_A0_beta/lib/librk.a -L/software/development/fdrms/ab83445/src/lib/sun4-5 -lFDRMS
Calc -L/software/development/fdrms/ab83445/src/lib/sun4-5.5.1 -lFDRMSCalc -ptr$(OBJDIR) -o $@ $(OBJECTS:%=$(OBJDIR)/%)
The librk.so linking errors can be eliminated if i force it to link the static libraries by including the complete paths to it...
The errors with CalcFinancial still persists..
