TableTest not working under Win32 again

[rfranke]

This issue had been solved 9 months ago in #4772 and re-appears in a different form now. The example is:

model TableTest
  extends Modelica.Blocks.Tables.CombiTable2D(
      table = [0.0,   1.0,   2.0,   3.0;
               1.0,   1.0,   3.0,   5.0;
               2.0,   2.0,   4.0,   6.0]);
  annotation(uses(Modelica(version="3.2.2")));
end TableTest;

FMI export from OMEdit under Win32 raises now (Cpp runtime selected):

g++ -shared -o TableTest.dll OMCppTableTestCalcHelperMain.o -L"C:/OpenModelica1.13.0-dev-32bit//lib//omc/cpp"  -Wl,--no-undefined -lOMCppSystem_static -lOMCppMath_static -lOMCppModelicaUtilities_static -lOMCppFMU_static -lOMCppNewton_static -lOMCppDgesvSolver_static -lOMCppExtensionUtilities_static -L"C:/someworkdir" "-LC:/OpenModelica1.13.0-dev-32bit//lib//omc" "-LC:/OpenModelica1.13.0-dev-32bit//lib/" "-L%APPDATA%/.openmodelica/binaries/TableTest" "-LC:/someworkdir/Resources/Library/mingw32" "-LC:/someworkdir/Resources/Library/win32" "-LC:/someworkdir/Resources/Library" -lModelicaStandardTables -lModelicaIO -lModelicaMatIO -lzlib "-L%APPDATA%/.openmodelica/binaries/Modelica" "-LC:/OpenModelica1.13.0-dev-32bit/lib/omlibrary/Modelica 3.2.2/Resources/Library/mingw32" "-LC:/OpenModelica1.13.0-dev-32bit/lib/omlibrary/Modelica 3.2.2/Resources/Library/win32" "-LC:/OpenModelica1.13.0-dev-32bit/lib/omlibrary/Modelica 3.2.2/Resources/Library" -lOMCppModelicaUtilities_static  -lOMCppDgesv_static -static

Attempting to manually add -lz -lhdf5 (as done for the simulator), yet another linker error comes up:

The additional link dependency to -lsz cannot be fulfilled (a misconfiguration of the static libhdf5.a?).

It is generally redigulous to have that many link dependencies for such a simple Modelica model.

[adrpo]

The linking should be with: -lhdf5 -lz -lszip

[adrpo]

These are defined here:
​https://github.com/OpenModelica/OMCompiler/blob/master/Compiler/runtime/omc_config.h#L102

[rfranke]

What about -lzlib that is linked so far? Should it be replaced? Is there a difference between Windows and Linux?

[adrpo]

We don't link with -lzlib on Windows / mingw. For mingw we have hardcoded lib flags in omc_config.h as the environment does not change.

I don't really know how it is on Linux. I think that configure for the MSL sources finds the needed flags, but I'm not sure.

[sjoelund.se]

For Linux it's a shared library, so no additional flags are needed

[rfranke]

For Linux we link Cpp FMUs statically as well to improve portability. SimCode.makefileParams.libs contains -lModelicaStandardTables -lModelicaIO -lModelicaMatIO -lzlib, besides more. This is independent of the platform, but obviously wrong under Windows.

[sjoelund.se]

The problem with statically linked FMUs for us is that for example lapack depends on libgfortran, which cannot be statically linked into a shared object (not compiled with -fPIC).

[rfranke]

Yes, we rather reduce features, e.g. no libgfortran, in favor of portability. But it's constant work against attempts to just link in all kind of libraries, like hdf5, because they happen to lie around on the development machine and someone might need it somewhen. I opened a ticket for MSL and need to work hard to not get muted immediately by MSL officers.

Where does SimCode.makefileParams.libs come from -- hardly from the include linked by Adrian above??

[adrpo]

These are returned via:
​https://github.com/OpenModelica/OMCompiler/blob/master/Compiler/runtime/System_omc.c#L174
called from:
​https://github.com/OpenModelica/OMCompiler/blob/master/Compiler/SimCode/SimCodeMain.mo#L1130
populated by:
​https://github.com/OpenModelica/OMCompiler/blob/master/Compiler/SimCode/SimCodeFunctionUtil.mo#L2507
and then via:
​https://github.com/OpenModelica/OMCompiler/blob/master/Compiler/SimCode/SimCodeFunctionUtil.mo#L2097

[rfranke]

The best solution might be to re-add own ModelicaExternalC libraries to the Cpp runtime, compiled without HDF5. These link dependencies are not specified in MSL; tables only state:

  annotation (Library={"ModelicaStandardTables", "ModelicaIO", "ModelicaMatIO", "zlib"});

Increadible that MSL maintainers who care about each character don't mind such a dependency mess.

[rfranke]

Commit ​https://github.com/OpenModelica/OMCompiler/commit/210af859fbe9b87504c7aaf4048f00215e0cc709 re-adds external libs locally to the Cpp runtime, using default features (no additional compiler flags).

Hopefully this will work out under Windows.

@rfranke, would you mind opening a pull request to fix this issue on MSL?
