Problem linking sample application (possible tcl/Tk version problem?)

[Karl Nissen]

Folks,

I am in the process of installing the swarm libraries,and I
get the following error when compiling the market application.
I haven't tried the other applications as yet

The error occurs at the linking stage and gives:

-----------------------------------------

gcc -L../swarm/lib -L/usr/openw/lib -L/home/karl/local/blt/lib 
-L/home/karl/local/lib -g  -o market agents.o forecast.o history.o Market.o 
main.o MarketModelSwarm.o MarketObserverSwarm.o  -lanalysis -lsimtools -ltkobjc 
-lactivity -lrandom -lswarmobject -lcollections -ldefobj -ltclobjc -lBLT -ltk 
-ltcl -lXpm -lX11 -lobjc -lm -lsocket -ldl -lnsl 
Undefined                       first referenced
 symbol                             in file
tcl_rcFileName                      /home/karl/local/lib/libtclobjc.a(Tcl.o)
ld: fatal: Symbol referencing

-----------------------------------------

Due to the configuration of the system I am using (SUN Sparc 4 /Solaris 2.5) I 
have installed the tcl/tk libraries in /home/karl/local/lib rather than 
/usr/local. 

I am using Tcl version 7.5p1 and Tk 4.1p1 and the documentation with Swarm 
indicates that there may be a problem with later versions of tcl and Tk in 
conjunction with libtclobjc version 1.1b5

Has anyone had any experience with these versions of tcl/Tk? Should I use 
tcl/Tk versions 7.4 and 4.0 instead?

 The actual reference for tcl_rcFileName in Tcl.o (from Tcl.m in 
libtclobjc-1.1b5) seems to be OK, simply a character definition. The 
compilation of libtclobjc gave a couple of warning messages:

Tk.m:67: warning: `synchronize' defined but not used
Tk.m:68: warning: `display' defined but not used

Not sure if these are significant........

Thanks,

Karl
