adding lib file

[vivmen]

Hi all

i am using linux for writing c++ code first time.

i am using following command to compile my code

g++ -g myfile.cpp -o myfile

i want to add a additional lib file in above command .

(in visual studio we can do it through project properties tab)

how can i do it here ?

thanks in advance

Use the -l switch. Example:

g++ -g myfile.cpp -o myfile -lpthread

And including switch -Wall, which enables all warnings, will save you a few headache.
