Title: Error with linking Code::Blocks with Allegro.
Post by: Octavarium on March 21, 2014, 09:11:10 pm

Hi, I have an issue trying to link Allegro 5 with Code::Blocks. All was working until a game I created crashed and I was forced to reboot my pc (I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 by the way). Here's my build log:

Quote

-------------- Build: Debug in allegroTest ---------------

Linking console executable: bin/Debug/allegroTest
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -l-L/usr/lib -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -lalleg -lm -lXxf86vm -lXcursor -lXpm -lXext -lX11 -lpthread -ldl
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Process terminated with status 1 (0 minutes, 0 seconds)
1 errors, 0 warnings
 

Any help would be appreciated, I'm unbelievably frustrated with this at the moment.

You posted the "build messages" this is not as useful as "Build log" contents.

See the text in bold, this is causing you the problem. You just have to find it in the build options...
