    Hi,

    I tried to add the lib files ( .a files ) to the default lib directory, but seems it wasn't found by linker.. how to do that correctly?

    Thanks

      The problem wasn't ACTUALLY solved to be totally honest, it was not caused by missing libraries.

      Thanks for the advices.

      "the lib files" - what lib files?

      Don't add third party libraries to the default library folder. Place them somewhere else and add a new library path. It makes updates much safer and simpler.

      I guess you have figured by now then that you need to explicitly link the libraries too. I believe this is discussed in the "PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING A QUESTION" thread.

      In future even if you solve a problem yourself, post the solution - other people may be interested in the answer.
