Re: [rc-hackers] Matlab for yarp, can't make libjyarp.so ??

Hello Anthony

If I understand correctly, you are building the bindings separate from YARP. 
The recommended way to do it is to enable them when building YARP, by enabling 
the "CREATE_BINDINGS" option.

"/usr/local/lib/libYARP_OS.a" means that like you are linking to a STATIC 
version of YARP. The "CREATE_SHARED_LIBRARIES" option must be ON when building 
YARP, not the bindings. If this is what you are doing, you probably have some 
old version of YARP installed on your system, please get rid of them and try 
again.
Also if I remember correctly, newer version of YARP are built with -fPIC, 
therefore you should not have this issue unless you are trying to link to a 
very old version.


Cheers,
