Re: "undefined reference" in .o files

Its normally because you're not linking in something you should be...
Maybe you have an empty GLOBALS file which you have in the GLOBALS  section
- but isnt on being linked in ?

The hex stuff is just a hash  meant to check that the module and globals
are in line - so there should be a "globals.4gl" (the bit before the hex -
but after the init_global_variables) which defines the
init_global_variables_globals_<hex>.

If the globals.c has a  "init_global_variables_globals_..." - but its
different hex hash - then the "hashing" is different between the two -
perhaps globals.4gl was compiled at a different time - and has had
something change ?
(The hashing is based on the variables defined)
