No source available for ”gsl_permute_char() “

[lalebarde]

Hi all,

I use the gnu scientific library gsl. My application compiles and link well. But when it comes to execution, at this line :

gsl_permute_char(gsl_permutation_data(p), (char*)line, lineSize, sizeof (uchar));

Previous definitions :

typedef unsigned char uchar;
uchar line[2*BLOCK];
gsl_permutation * p = gsl_permutation_calloc (line2Size);

I get the error :

"No source available for "gsl_permute_char() " "

Here is my compile command :
g++-4.7.1 -DDEBUG -I"/disk_alain/alain/Documents/WorkSpace/MyUtils/src" -O0 -g3 -Wall -c -fmessage-length=0 -std=c++11 -march=corei7 -mtune=corei7

My link command :
g++-4.7.1 -L"/disk_alain/alain/Documents/WorkSpace/MyUtils/Debug"

In the Eclipse-SDK I use, libraries ar also invoked with -l gsl If I add it explicitely, nothing is changed.

I have recompiled gsl from gcc-4.5 to gcc-4.7.1, and tried gsl 1.14 and 1.15-r2 : nothing changed.

Any idea please ?

The error came from a misuse of gsl_ran_shuffle just before the call of gsl_permute_char, with a bride corresponding to the data I want to shuffle (uchar), instead of a bride corresponding to the permutation itself (size_t) :

BAD : gsl_ran_shuffle (r, p->data, N, sizeof(uchar));
GOOD : gsl_ran_shuffle (r, p->data, N, sizeof(size_t));
