Summary: Undefined reference in winmain@16

Initial Comment:
Here's a pretty simple prog that i learn in the K & R C 
learning docs, when i try to compile it i get the error 
Undefined reference in winmain@16,what does it mean?
Have in mind that i've begin to learn C language 
yesterday so maybe its quite simple..

#include <stdio.h>

/* Read one line from standard input, */
/* Copying it to line array (but no more than max chars). 
*/
/* Does not place terminating \n in line array. */
/* Returns line length, or 0 for empty line, or EOF for end-
of-file.*/

int getline (char line[], int max)
{
int nch = 0;
int c;
max = max - 1;		/* leave room for '\0' */

while ((c = getchar()) != EOF)
	{
	if (c== '\n')
		break;

	if (nch < max)
		{
		line[nch] = c;
		nch = nch + 1;
		}
	}

if (c == EOF && nch == 0)
	return EOF;

line[nch] = '\0';
return nch;
}
