[Playerstage-users] plugin driver linking error

[Stefan S. <ss...@uo...>]

Hi,
after the discussion on the list I started to implement my drivers as
plugins to speed up compiling. After adding

extern "C" {
    int player_driver_init(DriverTable* table)
    {
        MyDriverName_Register(table);
        return(0);
    }
}

to each driver I get the following linking error.

../../server/drivers/pointcloud3d/.libs/pointCloudReader.o: In function
`player_driver_init':
/home/stefan/workspace/player4/server/drivers/pointcloud3d/pointCloudReader.cc:134:
multiple definition of `player_driver_init'
../../server/drivers/pointcloud3d/.libs/hough3d.o:/home/stefan/workspace/player4/server/drivers/pointcloud3d/hough3d.cc:304:
first defined here

Is this because the I added my driver into the server/drivers tree? The
libserverdrivers Makefile.am searches for all *.lo in this tree.
So is it true that if I want to build a plugin driver I have to do this
outside the server/drivers tree?

Best Stefan
