[desktop-discuss] Re: Latest MPlayer

[Doug Scott]

I had this problem with a few apps not finding the macro "G_GNUC_INTERNAL". In my spec files I have either zero'd it in CPPFLAGS or CFLAGS to get apps built on my machine. This macro defines (in GCC) that the function is private to the library. Really, the definition these functions in gnome should be moved to a private header file, where external apps will not trip over them.

You could also stick the following in a header file somewhere -
 
/[i]*
 * Provide G_GNUC_INTERNAL that is used for marking library functions
 * as being used internally to the lib only, to not create inefficient PLT entries
 */
#if defined (__GNUC__) 
#define G_GNUC_INTERNAL __attribute((visibility("hidden")))
#else
#define G_GNUC_INTERNAL
#endif[/i]
