design a GUI interface with c++
What do I need in order to design a drop down menu and be able to draw a graph ( temp vs time) in c/c++?
I am using Centos OS. Thanks |
I would look into gtk.
|
Or Qt.

cimg.h
will do everything you need http://cimg.sourceforge.net/ it is a graphics library in just the header see the tutorial http://cimg.sourceforge.net/referenc..._tutorial.html and the screenshots of concept code http://cimg.sourceforge.net/screenshots.shtml |
Regarding to CImg, I download the CImg_1.6.0_rolling140915.zip and moved the header to the /usr/include directory. I took one of the example and I compiled it with g++ and I am getting errors as described below;

did you look at the makefile in cimg/exapmles/Makefile you need to export a few libraries start with this and go from there Code:
g++ -o graphics5 graphic5.cpp -lX11 -lpthread -lm |
Thanks Jon VV.
g++ -o graphics5 graphic5.cpp -lX11 -lpthread -lm worked and it create an output file. When I tried to run the graphic5 (executable file) it said; instance(0,0,0,0,(nil),non-shared] CLmg<float>::load(): Failed to open 'img/parrot_original.ppm' It seems still some files are missing |

You will have to move or copy 'img/parrot_original.ppm' to a location, where it can be found. - |
John, As you said, adding the links (-lX11 -lpthread) worked but how do you know what links to add?
I took another example and I am getting different error! |
i read the makefile and the error you posted
the error states what is missing XInit pthread and the "-lm" is libm ( math) that is a normal one to add with the NEWER versions of gcc it is NOT inherited from other libraries any more it may or may not have been needed also you can put into "google" the error "undefined reference to `XInitThreads'" |
