Undefined function error reference in C

Question

Undefined function error reference in C

I have created a header file called dm.h that includes all the function prototypes. Then I created a source file called dm.c that includes the source code for all the functions declared in indm.h. After that I started coding in main.c, but when I ran it I got an error: undefined reference to "(function name)". I am getting this error for all my functions.

Below you can find the source code for all of my three files.

If you could help me solve this problem, I would be glad. I think there is some kind of linking issue between my library and the main source file.

Thanks in advance.

Since you are getting this error for all your functions, it cannot be a typo. It is best to assume that you are not linking the two files.

If you are using gcc it is done like this:

gcc -o main.o -c main.c
gcc -o ofdm.o -c ofdm.c
gcc -o program main.o ofdm.o

Note, which -c

means it should compile, but not try to create an executable. This means that the connection is not being made.

Once both files are compiled, you link them together.

When you learn new things, it helps you learn one new thing at a time. Put your source code in source control, then simplify it to get a clean compiler.

main.c

#include "ofdm.h"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  return 0;
}

ofdm.c

#include "ofdm.h"

void leftshift(short *bin,short *erg,int shifts, int len)
{
  int i;


  for(i = 0;i < len - shifts;i++)
  {
    erg[i] = bin[i + shifts];
  }
  for(i = len - shifts;i < len;i++)
  {
   erg[i] = 0;
  }
}

ofdm.h

#ifndef OFDM_H_INCLUDED
#define OFDM_H_INCLUDED

void leftshift(short *bin,short *erg,int shifts, int len);

#endif

Then, to compile with gcc.,.

$ gcc -Wall -c ofdm.c
$ gcc -Wall -c main.c
$ gcc -Wall *.o

This should give you a program that does nothing, successfully. You can now start building it again from your version controlled source.

Add one function at a time.
Edit it to get a clean compiler.
Edit this to pass sensible tests.

I came here with the same problem when using ESP-IDF as a beginner. What solved it for me is that I just forgot to add all the required sources to the function call idf_component_register

well this cud b bug is easily resolved if u save ur prototype code file in .cpp or .c format and then #include "urfilename.c" then try the program to work well with bt it cud b warning neglected

I think you are only compiling main.c. You must also include ofdm.c.

$ gcc -Wall main.c ofdm.c -o output
