[Dev-C++] Problem linking simple GTK+ prog with Dev-Cpp 4.9.5.0

[Mark B. <jmb...@ea...>]

Hello.  I'm trying to get the GTK+ 2.0.3 package to work correctly with my
Dev-Cpp install on Win2k.  I'm using the default minGW complier that comes
with Dev-Cpp, and I've installed all the Dev-Cpp updates that the update
tool says are available.

I believe that I have the include directories properly registered with the
IDE.  What I'm getting are linking errors.

[Linker error] undefined reference to `gtk_init_abi_check'
[Linker error] undefined reference to `gtk_window_new'
[Linker error] undefined reference to `gtk_widget_show'
[Linker error] undefined reference to `gtk_main'

Here is the simple program I'm trying to get to compile and run correctly as
a test of my GTK setup:

#include <gtk/gtk.h>

int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{

     GtkWidget *window;

     gtk_init (&argc, &argv);

     window = gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);

     gtk_widget_show (window);

     gtk_main();

     return 0;

}

As I said, a simple test program.

I'm sure that there's something I haven't configured correctly that is
causing the problem.  Could it be that I need to insert '-lglib' and
'-lgtk+' in my compiler options somewhere?

Thanks for any assistance.

One other note.  I installed GTK+ with the package manager.

Use the GTK+ *template*.

There doesn't appear to get a GTK+ template.  Why would that solve linker
problems?  There does appear to be a wxWindows template.

Because the template includes the nescessery compiler and linker flags,
as well as example code. After all. that's what templates are all about!

Compiler flags:
-I"<INCLUDE>\gtk-2.0" -I"<INCLUDE>\gtkdeps-2.0"
-I"<LIB>\gtk-2.0\include" -I"<INCLUDE>\atk-1.0" -I"<INCLUDE>\pango-1.0"
-I"<INCLUDE>\glib-2.0" -I"<LIB>\glib-2.0" -I"<LIB>\glib-2.0\include"
-fnative-struct

Linker flags:
-lgtk-win32-2.0 -lgdk-win32-2.0 -limm32 -lshell32 -lole32 -luuid
-latk-1.0 -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lm -lpangowin32-1.0 -lgdi32 -lpango-1.0
-lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -lglib-2.0 -liconv -lintl -mno-cygwin
-fnative-struct

Thank you.  I wonder why I can't find the template?  Weird.
