Title: Example files won't build. Getting error: ld.exe||cannot find -lstrmbase|
Post by: Pixelated on August 13, 2013, 11:53:32 am

I get 2 errors when trying to compile any Example file in Code::Blocks:
ld.exe||cannot find -lstrmbase|
ld.exe||cannot find -lz|


I'm fairly new to this whole scene so I'm not sure what else to include into this topic.

Can anyone help me figure this out,

Greetings,
Pixelated

My guess, you did something stupid like adding those settings to the Global compiler linker settings.
