GTK+ 2.0 library problem

[dubemasterd88]

I installed GTK+ 2.0, and have all the development headers and everything. I try to compile a simple program (just diplaying a single window), and it will not work. I compile as follows:

gcc 'pkg-config --cflags -libs gtk+-2.0' main.c

and I get a ridiculous amount of errors, all coming from the gtk header files:

Can someone please help????

gcc 'pkg-config --cflags -libs gtk+-2.0' main.c

Note that the quotes should not be normal, straight quotes, but backticks. The key for that is on the top left of your keyboard, together with the tilde (~). Also, it should be "--libs" with two dashes, not with one dash. So:

gcc `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-2.0` main.c

This is bad advice since not everybody uses the same keyboard.

and I get a ridiculous amount of errors, all coming from the gtk header files:
...

Man! Do you really think it is necessary to post all those errors?

Readability of your post.

Gtk+ headers?

Well, that's where backticks are on most keyboards. If it's not there on his keyboard, I trust that he's smart enough to find where the backticks are on his keyboard...

Well, that's where backticks are on most keyboards.

Again, generalizations are bad.
But hey

Keyboard Layout
The Dutch keyboard layout is barely used; the majority of the Dutch use the United States (International) layout instead.

Interesting.

Agreed!

By the way, the use of backticks (backquotes, grave accents) is a way of command substitution in bash.

textfile_listing=`ls *.txt`
# Variable contains names of all *.txt files in current working directory.
echo $textfile_listing

textfile_listing2=$(ls *.txt)   # The alternative form of command substitution.
echo $textfile_listing2
# Same result.
