[gecode-users] Copiling with gcc on OpenSuSE 10.0

Sorry, I should have read your first mail more carefully. I think there
are two problems with the way you try to compile your example: you use
gcc, which doesn't like .cc as input file name, and you don't link against
the gecode library.

The easiest way to try your own examples is to copy them into the examples
folder. Assuming your example is called myexample.cc, just do
make examples/myexample
in the Gecode main directory. This will use our Makefile rules to build
your example.
If this works, you can look at the g++ invocation that built your example
and use similar options for building your stuff in other directories.

After installation, you should be able to use the options you saw when
invoking make example/myexample, but add -I<prefix>/include
-L<prefix>/lib.

Hope this helps,
