[solved] gtkmm headers aren't found..

vkumar · 2008-10-15 22:09:22

I'm trying to get a very simple gtkmm program to compile, like so;

$ g++ simple.cc -o simple 'pkg-config gtkmm-2.4 --cflags --libs'

G++ keeps telling me that the gtkmm headers do not exist.

I tried to change my #include to "#include "/usr/include/gtkmm-2.4/gtkmm.h"', but that doesn't work either.

The package is installed and I've verified that the files exist - can anyone help me get this working?

Much appreciated!

I'm sorry!; is there any way to move this thread to General Programming?

Have you looked at the output of "pkg-config gtkmm-2.4 --cflags --libs"? Do the right paths and libraries get included?

I got it working now .
For some reason, quotes are handled badly with my keyboard. Anyways, I ran the pkg-config command and stored the output in 'gtkmmlibs', which I use as a replacement.
