How to link C Libraries to GCC

Question

I run the following

./gcc -o test -ansi test.c -L/<other dirs>/gcc/arm-linux-androideabi/4.4.3/include-fixed/

I get ...

test.c:3:18: error: no include path in which to search for stdio.h test.c: In function 'main': test.c:7: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'printf'

Here is the ls

jackie@jackie-Latitude-E6410:<Other dirs>/gcc/arm-linux-androideabi/4.4.3/include-fixed/ ls limits.h linux README stdio.h sys syslimits.h

Any Ideas?

For include files you probably want to use -I instead of -L which is what you use to specify locations the shared and static libraries themselves.

You should change the -L to -I on the compile line

-L is for linking libraries and -I is for adding to the include search paths.

So you might get another error when it compiles and not link, then you will need to add a -L and a -l (unless you just add the needed libraries with full paths)
