While working on my GDK for Ruby I had to use SWIG to create a C++ extension to rub. The following are the errors encountered and their solutions:
Error:
/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/i486-linux/calvarygdk.so: /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/i486-linux/calvarygdk.so: undefined symbol: _ZTV6Vector - /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/i486-linux/calvarygdk.so (LoadError)
from test.rb:1
Solution:
I did not have the Vector.cpp file in the same folder as the .i file.
Error:
test.rb:9: uninitialized constant Calvarygdk::Quaternion (NameError)
Solution:
I forgot to put a % instead of # at the beginning of the line here in the .i file:
==============================
/* File : example.i */
%module calvarygdk
%{
#include "Vector.h"
#include "Quaternion.h"
%}
/* Let's just grab the original header file here */
%include "Vector.h"
%include "Quaternion.h" /* <--------------------------- Right here was the problem, I had # instead of % */
==============================
Error:
gcc -shared -L"/usr/lib" -o calvarygdk.so calvarygdk_wrap.o Vector.o Quaternion.o DefaultTriMeshData.o -lruby1.8 -lsupc++ -lpthread -ldl -lcrypt -lm -lc
gcc: DefaultTriMeshData.o: No such file or directory
make: *** [calvarygdk.so] Error 1
Solution
Changed the object line to point to a real .o file. In this case a previously generated .o file for DefaultTriMeshData
===========Makefile==========
OBJS = calvarygdk_wrap.o Vector.o Quaternion.o graphics/DefaultTriMeshData.o

make: *** [calvarygdk.so] Error 1
Solutions":
The lib problem with gcc was solved by setting the lib path of the makefile and the libs as:
========Makefile=============
LIBPATH = -L"$(libdir)" -L"/usr/X11R6/lib" -L"/home/jtarquino/irrlicht-1.0/lib/Linux"
LIBS = $(LIBRUBYARG_SHARED) -lsupc++ -lpthread -ldl -lcrypt -lm -lc -lIrrlicht -lGL -lGLU -lXxf86vm -lXext -lX11
=============================
Also, I had to put the DefaultTriMeshData in the folder manually, I don't know why. Th object was in /home/jtarquino/cjptgames/.objs/calvaryfx/src/graphics.

make: *** [calvarygdk_wrap.o] Error 1
Solution:
When I looked at the generated code at line with the error I saw an invalid pointer conversion. In the .i file I was freeing the object as and int
instead of a int*:
=============.i file==============
%typemap(freearg) int * {
free((int*) $1); /* This was (int) $1 before
}

Solution:
I included in the .i file the Irrlicht.h file that was being included in every file.

test.rb:14:in `initialize': in method 'initialize', argument 1 of type 'PhyFactoryOde *' (ObjectPreviouslyDeleted)
from test.rb:14:in `run_game'
from test.rb:55
Solution: avoided the name initialized for the phy factory. Also for the phy engine, which was being started by the factory inside the
initialize method.
When I added an SFTP create file action to my Power Automate flow ( https://flow.microsoft.com ) , I got the following error in the action step, within the designer: "Test connection failed" To troubleshoot the Power Automate connection, I had to: go the Power Automate portal then "Data"->"Connections" the sftp connection was there, I clicked on the ellipsis, and entered the connection info It turns out, that screen provides more details about the connection error. In my case, it was complaining that "SSH host key finger-print xxx format is not supported. It must be in 'MD5' format". I had provided the sha fingerprint that WinScp shows. Instead, I needed to use the MD5 version of the fingerprint. To get that, I had to run in command line (I was in a folder that had openssh in it): ssh -o FingerprintHash=md5 mysftpsite.com To get the fingerprint in MD5 format. I took the string (without the "MD5:" part of the string) and put ...
