Problem "relocation truncated to fit",please help,

[patpsp]

Hello, i have a problem with libpng.
when i compile my program, it says :

/usr/local/pspdev/lib/gcc/psp/4.0.2/../../../../psp/lib/libpng.a(pngerror.o): da
ns la fonction « png_warning »:
pngerror.c:(.text+0x14c): référence indéfinie vers « _impure_ptr »
pngerror.c:(.text+0x14c): relocalisation tronquée pour concorder: R_MIPS_GPREL16
avec _impure_ptr

(relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_GPREL16 against '_impure_ptr' in english)

Can you explain me what i have to do ?

A search in the forum says that i have to compile the libpng with -G0
but it seems to be done :

1) i have downloaded the last libpng from svn
2) make
3) make install

I see "psp-gcc -I. -I/usr/local/pspdev/psp/sdk/include -O2 -G0 -c -o png.o png.c"

so the -G0 is passed



Any idea ?

I have no problem to compile test programs provided with pspsdk or pspGL

just the libpng i have installed causes problem.

Thanks for your help

Try adding -G0 to your own program too.

thanks for your answer jimparis

i've tried, but same error :

$ make

Any ideas ?

well, i wrote my Makefile again, including the build.mak this time and it now compiles just fine. I don't have the old makefile, so i can't tell you my previous mistake.

So it is resolved.

If someone has the same problem, i advice him to test whether the screenshot program included in libpng compiles or not.
If it compiles, have a look at the Makefile for the screenshot and try to modify it for your app.

Well, i'm sorry, but i've just tested my app, and my psp reboots...
So my new makefile, which allows me to compile fine, doesn't work as well as i thougt. All compile fine, but the execution failed...

So, i start again with the old makefile, which just compiles fine my app before the need of using libpng.

So, i ask you again with the "relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_GPREL16 against '_impure_ptr'"

Please help...
