Unable to find a symbol

[rachitagrawal]

I have an function defined klifo_create. I am making an archive out of it using

ar qcv and then linking it with another code.

On running I am getting

Undefined symbol: _Z12klifo_createiii

On checking the symbol table, I get the following:

Why there are two symbols created for the function klifo_create. And what are these PRETTY_FUNCTION?

Thanks

C++ names are mangled, hence the output.

Is your klifo_create function declared in a header file and not inlined?

Thanks, had a mismatch in .h and .cpp files. sorry to bother...
