Message-ID: <18122.604449223@kadmon> Date: 25 Feb 89 22:33:43 GMT Sender: daemon@tut.cis.ohio-state.edu Distribution: gnu Organization: GNUs Not Usenet Lines: 18 I had build a generic type genclass 2 String ref String ref CHMap genclass 2 String ref String ref Map genclass String def defs But in my actual code, I forgot the String.h include directive. The compiler did not complain, it just silently gave up on the file in question at the first reference to a String. the assembler then ran, and gave me .o with only the symbol gcc_compiled in it. The compiler should complain about such things. Jason
