Unresolved symbols when compiling with gcc on OpenSolaris 2008.11

When compiling a simple Netbeans C project that uses sockets I get the following output. I supose the problem is that gcc is not properly linking sockets.h library. Need a foolprof method to solve this. Thanks i advance

Running "/usr/bin/make  -f Makefile CONF=Debug clean" in /export/home/manu/Escritorio/TP-entrega 2/Application_1

/usr/bin/make -f nbproject/Makefile-Debug.mk SUBPROJECTS= .clean-conf
rm -f -r build/Debug
rm -f dist/Debug/GNU-Solaris-x86/application_1

Clean successful. Exit value 0.

  • You need the appropriate -l flag. I'm looking it up.

    Duh. add -lsocket. Actually, you probably need -lnsl too. See this man page.

    In Netbeans this should be in the Project Properties.

  • You need to make sure that the linker is linking the socket and nsl libraries. At the command line you would add -lsocket -lnsl to do so. I don't know netbeans and can't tell you how it works there exactly, but somewhere there should be linker settings where you can add these libraries.
