Hi ,
I downloaded JRTPLIB which is an API used to build Real time protocol software.
Well i added a function to a source file as well as definining it in the corresponding header file,

The problem is now i am trying to run a test file "example1" which calls on this newly made function and i keep getting that the function "SendInitPacket(....) " is not defined .

Now i am new to linux but i am assuming that you need to remake the the code , inorder for the modifications [ SendInitPacket(....) ] to be reflected in the corresponding object file. And that this may be causing the error. However i tried remaking the code , and still got the same error .

So , i am looking for a helping hand , Thanks in advance

Quest

ps by the way the error looked like :

undefined reference to `RTPSession::SendInitPacket(void const*, unsigned, unsigned char, bool, unsigned)'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

You probably need to tell the compiler to link in the library. It's usually something like g++ myprog.c -o myprog -lresolv. The -l tells the compiler to link in the library, and resolv is the name of the library. So maybe you need to add something like -ljrtp

Yes itsme86 is right about that. In linux we have shared Libraries, that have got the functionality of the function you using in your program, so your program will compile well but when you link it you must tell your program to go for some shared library for the implementation of the function so you adds the library name using -l and then the Lib name

Thanx alot guys , this brings me a lot closer to the problem , i think i can take it from here , nuff respect
