According to the description of its configuration system, it can be configured not to use threading at all:

            [2] OpenSSL is built with threading capabilities unless the user specifies no-threads. The value of the key thread_scheme may be (unknown), in which case the user MUST give some compilation flags to Configure.

            I'm getting undefined reference to dlsym@@GLIBC_2.2.5 even after linking it before and after the libraries. However in the linking output it appears that it's linking just before, but linking before all libraries should work, I guess.

            Would you inspect carefully the actual command line used for linking, you will find that after libsmoltcp_cpp_interface_rust.a, which has missed symbol, there is no -ldl parameter.

            It seems that in your case smoltcp_cpp is an IMPORTED library target, which has libsmoltcp_cpp_interface_rust.a as a link dependency (not as IMPORTED_LOCATION property or so).

            While CMake preserves order of the libraries, linked into a single binary (an or another library), order between dependencies of these libraries is not defined.

            You need to add -ldl as a link dependency for the smoltcp_cpp target itself:

            Asked 2020-May-14 at 17:47

            I was trying to make a program to sniff packets and went to libtins

            If you are using a static build of libtins on Windows, then you have link your application with tins.lib. You also need to add this macro definition to your project: TINS_STATIC

            What does it mean? It even does not have a value. Can some one help me how to add this in visual studio?

            See this answer for a full guide for using libtins with Visual Studio.

            Using #define TINS_STATIC (before including any libtins headers) would work. Alternatively you could add TINS_STATIC in the project settings under C/C++ > Preprocessor > Preprocessor definitions.

            It does not need to have a value, because the libtins header only checks if the symbol is defined, not what value it has (reference):

            Libtins: cannot use class method as packet handler within the sniff_loop even with c++11
            Asked 2020-Mar-18 at 17:21

            I'm working on an small UDP traffic sniffing example using libtins. Everything worked until I started encapsulating everythin into a class. Acording the tutorial (loop sniffing section), the snifer_loop takes a template functor as an argument, and:

            The call to Sniffer::sniff_loop will make the sniffer start processing packets. The functor will be called using each processed packet as its argument. If at some point, you want to stop sniffing, then your functor should return false. Otherwise return true and the Sniffer object will keep looping.

            The functor object will be copy constructed, so it must implement copy semantics. There is a helper template function which takes a pointer to an object of a template parameter type, and a member function, and returns a HandlerProxy. That object implements the required operator, in which it forwards the call to the member function pointer provided, using the object pointer given:

            Everything works if I use PDU data type, or if I use Packet type with an external function, but once I use Packet type with a method, I get a compiler error:

            In order to capture packets on Windows, you could first list all network interfaces. You can do that easily by using the NetworkInterface class:

            How to link a static library in Visual C++ 2017?
            Asked 2018-Nov-02 at 13:30

            Trying to set up libtins on windows. Im relatively new to Visual studio and most of the documentation on the matter was for older versions. I was able to get the include files set up with the project but linking the .lib's was problematic and i cant seem to configure it properly. The properties menu seems pretty convoluted as im used to doing most things compiler related configurations from a command line.

            In the Solution Explorer, right click on the project, select Properties. Expand to Configuration Properties > Linker > Input. Add the .lib file to Additional Dependencies. Do this for both the Release and Debug configuration.

            Install libtins

            Note that by default, only the shared object is compiled. If you would like to generate a static library file, run:. The generated static/shared library files will be located in the build/lib directory.

            Support

            libtins is noticeably faster if you enable C++11 support. Therefore, if your compiler supports this standard, then you should enable it. In order to do so, use the LIBTINS_ENABLE_CXX11 switch:.
