undefined reference error in g++

Question

i have the following code:

  #include "Poco/Net/DatagramSocket.h"
    #include "Poco/Net/SocketAddress.h"
    #include "Poco/Timestamp.h"
    #include "Poco/DateTimeFormatter.h"

    int main(int argc, char** argv)
    {

    Poco::Net::SocketAddress sa("127.0.0.1", 8080);

    Poco::Net::DatagramSocket dgs(sa);
    std::string syslogMsg;
    Poco::Timestamp now;
    syslogMsg = Poco::DateTimeFormatter::format(now,
    "<14>%w %f %H:%M:%S Hello, world!");

    return 0;

}

and after compiling i get the following errors:

/tmp/cc38RdWw.o: In function `main':
pocoSender.cpp:(.text+0x4d): undefined reference to `Poco::Net::SocketAddress::SocketAddress(std::string const&, unsigned short)'

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

i use the following commandline to compile:

g++ -L/usr/local/lib -lPocoUtil -lPocoFoundation -lPocoNet pocoSender.cpp -o hello

please do not mark the question as duplicate as i have included the required libraries using g++ flags, but i am still getting these errors.

Libraries go AFTER source and object files on the command line. — n. m. could be an AI, Jan 08 '14 at 17:06
Maybe `-L/usr/local/lib` refers a place where the libs aren't present. Also suspicious how you're going to specify `pocoSender.cpp` on your linker command, it should appear **before** the library specs ... — πάντα ῥεῖ, Jan 08 '14 at 17:07

It means that the compiler or linker did not find implementations of these functions. It seems that the corresponding libraries or object modules were not included in building of the project.
