From: neil on 24 Jun 2010 14:47 I have been trying to compile a program that uses Xlib.h. One of the source files has #include <X11/Xlib.h> I searched the system and found xlib.h is in /usr/local/include/X11. Despite this, the compiler says xlib.h no such file or directory. I tried changing the #include to the full path name - but it just leads to errors further down the line. Can anyone see what I am doing wrong? Why does the compiler not see xlib.h?? How can I fix this?

For every normal distro, you just need -lX11. No need for including that path (for compiling or linking). Or am I wrong? |
