Math.h compiling but not linking

[.t3]

I have a snippet of code written in C, everything works like a charm except the linking.
Every function I try to use from math.h gets throught the compiler but not the linker.

Maybe linking with the math library would help? :p
If I don't remember wrong you use the compiler directive -lm (small L) to link with the math library.

In other words:
gcc myprog.c -o myprog -lm

T.

At the top of your code, try adding this to your includes: #include <math.h>

[truls]

Since he mentioned the linker, the includes cannot be the problem can they? I thought it was the compiler step that would fail if you were missing includes, and the linker step that would fail if you were missing libraries. Or am I wrong?

Truls is right. Use -lm on the compile command line. I have recently solved the same linking problem using the explicit link library option for gcc 2.95. As I understand, gcc will link in the libm.a library for math support.

Has it worked for you yet .t3?

If not try this

gcc -o myprog -c source.c
