I'm compiling IBM's icu 2.0 (http://oss.software.ibm.com/icu/) from cvs as a precursor to porting xerces 1.5.2 to cygwin.

I'm using cygwin 1.3.3 with all latest versions of everything.

make stops at the first link, with:

c++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -DICU_DATA_DIR=\"/usr/local/lib/icu/2.0/\" -DUDATA_SO_SUFFIX=\".so\" -DU_COMMON_LIBNAME=\"libicuuc.so.20.0\"
 -DUDATA_FILES -g -O2   -shared -Wl,-soname -Wl,libicuuc.so.20 -o libicuuc.so.20.0 putil.o ...
convert.o -L../data -L../stubdata -licudata -lm
.../ld: cannot find -licudata

I verified that ../stubdata/libicudata.so.lnk exists, and it links to ../stubdata/libicudt20l.so.

So I tried to fix it with:

% cd stubdata
% rm libicudata.so
% cp libicudt20l.so libicudata.so

No luck.

So I copied libicudata.so into the working directory, and added -L. to the command line.

% cd common
% cp ../stubdata/libicudata.so .
% make

c++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -DICU_DATA_DIR=\"/usr/local/lib/icu/2.0/\" -DUDATA_SO_SUFFIX=\".so\" -DU_COMMON_LIBNAME=\"libicuuc.so.20.0\"
 -DUDATA_FILES -g -O2   -shared -Wl,-soname -Wl,libicuuc.so.20 -o libicuuc.so.20.0 putil.o ...
convert.o -L../data -L../stubdata -licudata -lm -L.
.../ld: cannot find -licudata

So, ld can't find the library when it's sitting right in front of it.

What am I missing?

-Ross
