Linker Error: cannot find -lecere

[fedor_bel]

Hello,

Today after I have copied the ecere directory to another Windows computer, I thought I have enough to use ecere. But I got

Linker Error: cannot find -lecere

when trying to build.

What am I missing? The ecere directory contains bin, doc and mingw subdirectories from the the binary standard distribution.

You need to setup the paths in File / Global Settings, Compilers

Libraries should contain: C:\Program Files (x86)\ECERE SDK\bin
And executable files should contain:

C:\Program Files (x86)\ECERE SDK\bin
C:\Program Files (x86)\ECERE SDK\mingw\bin

Ecere is spreading from computer to computer

Cheers,

Jerome

Thank you, Jerome.
That helped! Now It is very easy to take ecere along with me.

This solved the problem, can you integrate this functionality to the installer?. it is nice if installer does this task automatically.

Hi baneeishaque,

Glad you found this post, and sorry for the trouble.

This functionality is in the installer (and was working in previous versions) and will be fixed in the next release, but we've just been too busy to get the 0.44.16 release ready lately...

Hopefully it happens soon.

Drop in any time in #ecere on irc.freenode.net if you need live assistance.

Best regards,

-Jerome
