[petsc-users] PETSc, C++ and Eclipse

Hello Matt,

"Undefined reference" is usually a linker error. As you noticed in the
console normally a two step process is applied: First the .c file(s)
is(are) compiled into .o files. Then they are linked. As Berend pointed
out the error happened in the treatment of the .c file. So why is it
linking at that stage? If you are using intel or gnu compiler it is
because in the compile flags there is no -c. If you scan through the
command that the original petcs makefile used you will find it for the
compiling stage, but not in the eclipse version.
Which compiler are you using?

There are a lot of flags. Did you manually modify the compile command
line? Is it possible you accidently removed -c?

Regards,
Klaus
