Re: Compiler Linking Question on Linux

You may need to add a -I (include path) or -L (library link path) option to
your compiler.  

Since you didn't give specific paths, we'll just guess and say that glib is
a directory under /usr/include.  So add a -I/usr/include/glib
-L/usr/include/glib to your compile line.

Also check the #include lines in your header files and make sure they're
indicating the correct path.  If the real directory is /usr/include/glib-20.
and the header files #include <glib/gmacros.h> instead of #include
<glib-2.0/gmacros.h> then there is a problem.
