[link error] undefined reference to `vtable ...

[huanggn]

Hello,

I got some linking problem with icc. A lot of "undefined reference to vtable for ..." are complained. But if I make it with CXX=g++, it links correctly. Any idea? Thank you very much!

Reply: (why can't I reply myself in the forum??)

This issue is workaround by adding "-gcc-version=400". But can anyone tell me what's the potential side effect of this workaround? Thanks :-)

Searched the net, and came to know lot number of cases (missing destructors , missing virtual member definition )which throws this diagnostic message.

Often comes when, a non-inline virtual member function is not given its implementation in derived class. Or when, a constructor is calling a virtual function, and hence cannot go through the vtable.

Though do not know of the side-effects of the workaround, it would help for your sake, if you could examine the possibilities of above mismatches in the code,or get the patch. It might cause side-effect for a few cases.
