linking libraries

[Jake Skinner]

adding -lpq++ to the linker options doesn't make any difference :(

the error occurs when Kdevelop checks the environment.
    checking whether the C compiler
(gcc -O1 -I/usr/include/pgsql -lpq++)works ..... no
    C compiler cannot create executables



the lib path is in ld.so.conf :(

I'm stumped!?

  Just add -lpq++ to the linker options (under Projects->Option in KDevelop
1.4), and also include the path -L/... in the options or alternatively
include it in /etc/ld.so.conf and don't forget to run ldconfig... That
should work

    I am having trouble linking external libraries - specifically postgresql
    libraries.

    I can get everything working on the command line, but not within the
    Kdevelop IDE.

    This is what I type at the command line

            g++ -I/usr/local/pgsql/include -o myapp
    myapp.cpp -L/usr/local/pgsql/lib -lpq++

    which works as desired, but in the Kdevelop IDE it throws up comilation
    errors. ie can't find the libraries.

    Any suggestions would be great. I know it is something simple but hey :)

    Thanks
