Hi to all,
-I am a total newbie for C++ in general. I wanted to install ALGLIB under Codeblocks, but I made clearly a mistake I am not able to find.

Under Windows 10,
I installed "codeblocks-16.01mingw-setup" under the C:/codeblocks dir.
Then I extracted "alglib-3.10.0.cpp.gpl" to a dir that I called "C:\clibs\prova4".
I created a c++ project named prova4 in the dir "C:\clibs\prova4"
my dirlist is :

I instructed the project linker in codeblocks to point to "C:\clibs\prova4".

my main.cpp code is:

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include "alglibinternal.h"
#include "alglibmisc.h"
#include <ap.h>
#include "dataanalysis.h"
#include "diffequations.h"
#include "fasttransforms.h"
#include "integration.h"
#include "interpolation.h"
#include "linalg.h"
#include "optimization.h"
#include "solvers.h"
#include "specialfunctions.h"
#include "statistics.h"
#include "stdafx.h"

using namespace std;

int main()
{
alglib::real_1d_array x;
x = "[1,2,3,4,5]";

  //  std::cout << "Hello world!" << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

When I try to build it I get:

mingw32-g++.exe -Wall -fexceptions -g -IC:\clibs\prova4\ -IC:\CodeBlocks\MinGW\lib\gcc\mingw32\4.9.2\include -IC:\clibs\cpp\src -c C:\clibs\prova4\main.cpp -o obj\Debug\main.o

I've been struggling for days, but I think I need help, since this is my first c++ attempt..
thanks a lot..

Hello!

It is not ALGLIB problem - you do not understand modular structure of C++ programs. A program is a set of C++ files, which must be compiled separately. You should add to your project tree all cpp files from ALGLIB directory, so that codeblocks knows about these files and compiles them as well as you main.cpp

If you want to reference a function from other cpp file, you should include header file with its declaration - but not cpp file, not implementation.

Thank you Sergei, surely I'm a total newbie for C++.
Still, I tried to understand a bit before declaring I was not able to solve the problem. I included a copy of my project directory in the post to show you that I had all the cpp files and the h files in the project directory. I first included only all the h files in the declaration of the main.cpp header, but I had to include also the ap.cpp to have a correct 1d array. Still, statistics.cpp gives alway errors, whatever I include only .h or also .cpp. I also get errors in compiling manually with:
Code:
g++ *.cpp -o main
. Could you please have a look at the errors that I posted to help me?? Thanks again..

I realized that "include the cpp files" meant include the cpp in the project, not include in the main.cpp header as .h files.
Now everything seems ok. Clearly I miss basic principles of c++ programming, but less criptic instructions for a beginner would be helpful for a quick start...
thank you again...
