It looks like you are using the MacOS version of the API. Use:      https://github.com/Esri/file-geodatabase-api/blob/master/FileGDB_API_1.5/FileGDB_API_1_5_64gcc51.tar.gz   We need to go to better names at 1.6. ... View more

The undefined symbol '_ZNSt8ios_base4InitD1Ev@@GLIBCXX_3.4' was reported by several people. They got this when using gcc instead of g++ as their C++ compiler so your CC/CXX vars should either be unset or set to: CC=gcc CXX=g++ This would be the ideal setup if we were recommending one: OS: Ubuntu 18.04 File GDB API Package: https://github.com/Esri/file-geodatabase-api/blob/master/FileGDB_API_1.5/FileGDB_API_1_5_64gcc51.tar.gz Compiler: GCC 7.3.0 Steps: • Run ‘which g++’ and ‘g++ --version’ to make sure you’re picking up the right compiler. • Unpack FileGDB_API_1_5_64gcc51.tar.gz from your $HOME so $HOME/FileGDB_API-64gcc51 is created. • cd to $HOME/FileGDB_API-64gcc51/lib and add that folder to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH $ cd $HOME/FileGDB_API-64gcc51/lib $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${PWD}:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} • Go to the sample folder and build it: $ cd $HOME/FileGDB_API-64gcc51/samples/GeodatabaseManagement $ make clean all rm -f -v ./GeodatabaseManagement.o ../bin/GeodatabaseManagement g++ -fPIC -O3 -m64 -W -fexceptions -D_CONSOLE -DUNICODE -D_UNICODE -DUNIX -D_REENTRANT -DFILEGDB_API -D__USE_FILE_OFFSET64 -DUNIX_FILEGDB_API -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -I../../include -I. -c GeodatabaseManagement.cpp g++ -fPIC -O3 -m64 -W -fexceptions -D_CONSOLE -DUNICODE -D_UNICODE -DUNIX -D_REENTRANT -DFILEGDB_API -D__USE_FILE_OFFSET64 -DUNIX_FILEGDB_API -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -I../../include -I. -m64 -L../../lib -o ../bin/GeodatabaseManagement ./GeodatabaseManagement.o –lFileGDBAPI • Run it: $ cd ../bin/ $ ./GeodatabaseManagement The geodatabase has been created.

To create a geodatabase see FileGDB_API\samples\GeodatabaseManagement\GeodatabaseManagement.cpp // Create a new geodatabase in the current directory. fgdbError hr; wstring errorText; Geodatabase geodatabase; if ((hr = CreateGeodatabase(L"../GeodatabaseManagement/GdbManagement.gdb", geodatabase)) != S_OK) { wcout << "An error occurred while creating the geodatabase." << endl; ErrorInfo::GetErrorDescription(hr, errorText); wcout << errorText << "(" << hr << ")." << endl; return -1; } This is a C++ example. We don't have a Java interface.   ... View more

I'm sorry to say that the File Geodatabase API does not support pre-10.0 File Geodatabases. The api was built on top of the 10.0 structure and it's not compatible. ... View more
