Re: [pdf-devel] UUID implementation trouble

[Albert Meroño Peñuela]

OK, both problems are solved. The linkage failure with the external
libuuid library, as Brad pointed, was due to a lacking linker variable
in this line in src/Makefile.am (added $(LTLIBUUID) and worked fine):


libgnupdf_la_LDFLAGS = $(top_builddir)/lib/libgnu.la \
                       $(LTLIBUUID) $(LTLIBPTHREAD) $(LTLIBM) \
                       $(LTLIBJBIG2DEC) $(LTLIBJPEG) $(LTLIBCURL) \
                       $(LIBGCRYPT_LIBS) $(LTLIBGPG_ERROR) $(LTLIBGCRYPT) \
                       $(LTLIBCHECK) $(LTLIBICONV)

The public header issue was due to: a) lack of the corresponding
entrance in the PUBLIC_HDRS variable; b) absence of the /* BEGIN
PUBLIC */ and /* END PUBLIC */ marks in public datatypes and functions
in src/base/pdf-types-uuid.h

I can go on now on this, thanks for the help!
