Compiler: gcc and/or g++
Linux: Mac OS X 10.6.7
curlpp version: 0.7.3

-Hi

I am having trouble compiling my cpp program, I am just trying to do an example from the curlpp website http://tinyurl.com/3auvcjo . I am using that code exactly. Also I've tried to search online to see what other people did for this problem.

This http://tinyurl.com/447x7gr directed me to another link which is further down that page, that told me to add some other libs within my curlpp libs. But still nothing worked :(. That link is this http://tinyurl.com/3crm6sv.

Here are my errors I am getting. It seems simple enough yes, that it does not recognize the location of the .hpp libs I am trying to use. I've tried to use the actual path to the curlpp libs with my command to run it, but still nothing...I also get the same error compiling with g++.

I figured it out. Since I'm not to familiar with c++ and how gcc and g++ compilers and linkers work, I didn't know I had to place some other arguments when I ran the command to compile and link my code. I had installed curlpp into /opt/curlpp/ instead of the normal /usr/lib/. So what I first came up with was this line. g++ -I/opt/curlpp/include/ -L/opt/curlpp/lib/ -lcurlpp -lutilspp curl_00.cpp Then I just went ahead and did this, and to make things easier for me just threw it into a bash script :) g++ `/opt/curlpp/bin/curlpp-config --cflags` `/opt/curlpp/bin/curlpp-config --libs` curl_00.cpp
