main.cpp:16: undefined reference to `snd_card_next'


Hello,
I want to write an application to play sound from a buffer using alsa

first I try to make a test. I find following code im Web.

http://home.roadrunner.com/~jgglatt/tech/linuxapi.htm

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <alsa/asoundlib.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
   register int  err;
   int           cardNum;
   // Start with first card
   cardNum = -1;
   for (;;){
      snd_ctl_t *cardHandle;
      if ((err = snd_card_next(&cardNum)) < 0){
         printf("Can't get the next card number: %s\n", snd_strerror(err));
         break;
      }
      if (cardNum < 0) break;
      // Open this card's control interface. We specify only the card number -- not
      // any device nor sub-device too
      {
       char   str[64];
       sprintf(str, "hw:%i", cardNum);
       if ((err = snd_ctl_open(&cardHandle, str, 0)) < 0){
         printf("Can't open card %i: %s\n", cardNum, snd_strerror(err));
         continue;
       }
      }

      {
      snd_ctl_card_info_t *cardInfo;

      // We need to get a snd_ctl_card_info_t. Just alloc it on the stack
      snd_ctl_card_info_alloca(&cardInfo);

      // Tell ALSA to fill in our snd_ctl_card_info_t with info about this card
      if ((err = snd_ctl_card_info(cardHandle, cardInfo)) < 0)
         printf("Can't get info for card %i: %s\n", cardNum, snd_strerror(err));
      else
         printf("Card %i = %s\n", cardNum, snd_ctl_card_info_get_name(cardInfo));
      }

      // Close the card's control interface after we're done with it
      snd_ctl_close(cardHandle);
   }
   // ALSA allocates some mem to load its config file when we call some of the
   // above functions. Now that we're done getting the info, let's tell ALSA
   // to unload the info and free up that mem
   snd_config_update_free_global();
}
if I compile this code I get following Error:

main.cpp:16: undefined reference to `snd_card_next'
main.cpp:17: undefined reference to `snd_strerror'
main.cpp:26: undefined reference to `snd_ctl_open'
main.cpp:27: undefined reference to `snd_strerror'
main.cpp:36: undefined reference to `snd_ctl_card_info_sizeof'
main.cpp:36: undefined reference to `snd_ctl_card_info_sizeof'
main.cpp:39: undefined reference to `snd_ctl_card_info'
main.cpp:40: undefined reference to `snd_strerror'
main.cpp:42: undefined reference to `snd_ctl_card_info_get_name'
main.cpp:46: undefined reference to `snd_ctl_close'
main.cpp:51: undefined reference to `snd_config_update_free_global'

I also use #include <alsa/Contols.h> but it does not help.

thanks for ur help.

Martin
