How come I get this error when compiling with the -m32 argument?
unrecognised emulation mode: 32
I’m compiling using g++ on an x86_64 machine. It happens in one project, but not the other… Any hints?
Note: I’m using Eclipse CDT, so perhaps this is an IDE specific gocha?
Perhaps a better question would be: What is the best method of building an x86 binary in Eclipse when running on an x86_64 machine?
It seems that in Eclipse, you must specify -m32 in the miscelanious linker options, if it’s specified in the compiler options.
The ‘unrecognised emulation mode: 32’ error message appears when your reference a library path that doesn’t exist – which is weird!
