Question

I tried to build mongodb c++ 2.0 driver,but got the following error message:

security_commands.cpp:(.text+0x865): undefined reference to

Answer 1

The tarball for the driver seems to be missing mongo/db/security.cpp file among others to make a shared lib.

But, it has enough for building static lib with few missing symbol.

open SConstruct and comment out the line saying

libs += env.SharedLibrary( “mongoclient” , allClientFiles )

and you are set.
