I was writing a simple shell program in Termux in Android 5 (Lollipop) with GNU readline library in C program. I am getting linker error on compiling the below code. The same code is works fine in Android 9' Termux. I have verified the readline Dev package also.
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
char* buf;
while ((buf = readline("$ ")) != NULL) {
if (strlen(buf) > 0) {
add_history(buf);
}
printf("echo [%s]\n", buf);
free(buf);
}
return 0;
}
Compiled as:
$ cc -lreadline rl.c
Here is the linker error
