ProgrammingThis forum is for all programming questions.
The question does not have to be directly related to Linux and any language is fair game.

I have some problems when I try to compile programs wherein I use the PLIB (http://plib.sourceforge.net/index.html). So I tried to compile one of the sample programs that go with it, and I get the same undefined reference errors. Am I specifying the wrong compiler options? This is what happens:

Looks like another library or object needs to be linked in. Rather than frustrate yourself, this is a problem best solved by the project administrator. You should post this question on their help board or email them directly. I'd suggest to them that they provide a makefile with the source code.
