CFFI load-foreign-library problem

[Marco Antoniotti]

Hi

sorry for the noise…  I have gotten confused (among other things) about the status of CFFI’s mailing lists.

In any case, I have the following problem. 

This is in my "test" file: 


(cffi:define-foreign-library cl-autowrap-tests-lib 
  (t "cl-autowrap-test.a")) 


This is what I get on LWM. 

CL-USER 15 > (cffi:load-foreign-library 'cl-autowrap-tests::cl-autowrap-tests-lib) 

Error: Unable to load foreign library (CL-AUTOWRAP-TESTS-LIB). 
  Could not register handle for external module CL-AUTOWRAP-TESTS::CL-AUTOWRAP-TESTS-LIB: 
 no suitable image found.  Did find: 
        /Users/marcoxa/Projects/Lang/CL/tests/cl-autowrap/cl-autowrap-test.a: file too short. 
  1 (continue) Try loading the foreign library again. 
  2 Use another library instead. 
  3 (abort) Return to level 0. 
  4 Return to top loop level 0. 

Type :b for backtrace or :c <option number> to proceed. 
Type :bug-form "<subject>" for a bug report template or :? for other options. 


It obviously appears that something may be amiss with the .a (static) generation.  My C/C++ fu us very rusty. 

Any ideas? 

Cheers
