ROOT Version: 6.32.00
Platform: Ubuntu 22.04
Compiler: gcc 11.40
Cmake: 3.22.1
I am writing a standalone GUI program and I want to handle the termination for cleaning up. So I follow the tutorial and send TRootCavnas::CloseWindow() signal to TerminationHandler::Terminate(). I compiled successfully but failed to clean up after I pressed the ‘X’ button on top right corner of window. And the error information is below
IncrementalExecutor::executeFunction: symbol '_ZN18TerminationHandler9TerminateEv' unresolved while linking symbol '__cf_5'!
You are probably missing the definition of TerminationHandler::Terminate()
Maybe you need to load the corresponding shared library?

But I “fixed” it through adding an empty constructor to class TerminationHandler. I have no idea why it can run now. I use Ubuntu22.04, ROOT 6.32.00, gcc 11.40, cmake 3.22.1. I made a small demo to reproduce this problem. I have commented the empty constructor in termination-handler.h(.cpp) to make it broken. Again, the program exits gracefully with empty constructor, but break when without it.
Another method to solve this is to put the definition of member function into the header file with declaration. In my case, just put everything in termination-handler.cpp into termination-handler.h.
And I test this on another machine, CentOs 7, ROOT 6.28.04, gcc 9.3.0, cmake 3.26.4. Nothing went wrong and the program exits normally with or without the empty constructor. But I can’t test with other enviroment now.
By the way, are there any easier method to handle the CloseWindow? My current method needs a slot for ROOT signal. So I have to write an RQ_OBJECT class and tell compiler (or interpreter?) with LinkDef.h file. I think it’s a little complex.
