Not able to build linux application

[sumitsharansatsangi]

I am trying to build Linux application using flutter, but received following error

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.24/Modules/CMakeTestCXXCompiler.cmake:62 (message):
  The C++ compiler

    "/usr/bin/clang++"

  is not able to compile a simple test program.

  It fails with the following output:

    Change Dir: /home/sumit/StudioProjects/todo/build/linux/x64/debug/CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp

    Run Build Command(s):/usr/bin/ninja cmTC_a9f51 && [1/2] Building CXX object CMakeFiles/cmTC_a9f51.dir/testCXXCompiler.cxx.o

    clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
    ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

  CMake will not be able to correctly generate this project.

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lstdc++: No such file or directory

can be fixed with

sudo apt install libstdc++-dev

@sumitsharansatsangi Can you try installing the library that @sldsrg mentioned above and check if the issue is solved?

@huycozy , @sldsrg , I have tried what you have said. It works, but not completely. Now I am facing a permission error as follows:

I run the following command to build. flutter run -v -d linux

After flutter clean it works. Thanks for the help.

I suggest this to be re-opened. After my Ubuntu upgraded with (most likely newest version of clang) flutter build does not work anymore with same error.

I resolved it. Following command did not work:

sudo apt install libstdc++-dev

I was requested to specify package with version explicitly:

sudo apt install libstdc++-12-dev

This worked.
