HI,

I have the following: #include <libxml++/libxml++.h> and when i compile it says fatal error: libxml++/libxml++.h.No such file or directory. I've checked in the directory: /usr/include/libxml++-2.6/libxml++ and there it is the libxml++.h. Where am I wrong? why do i receive this error? thx

EDIT:

I did include g++ prg.cpp -o prg -I/usr/include/libxml++-2.6/ and now i have the 

error:fatal error: glibmm/ustring.h: No such file or directory
just me

You should use pkg-config to get the correct compiler options. See, for instance: http://developer.gnome.org/libxml++/stable/

  • and...what should I do if I use cmake? Copy-paste the whole output of ´pkg-config´? – Lecko Dec 23 '15 at 19:52
  • I believe people use FindPkgConfig with CMake, though my past attempts have been fairly unconvincing: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.4/module/FindPkgConfig.html . Here is a a recent question about that: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29191855/what-is-the-proper-way-to-use-pkg-config-from-cmake – murrayc Dec 24 '15 at 14:03

Add the following option in the makefile: 

g++ <some options> -I/usr/include/libxml++-2.6 <some other options>

The -I flag in g++ adds the directory appearing after it to the include path. If you do not want to use that option, you need to replace the #include<libxml++-2.6/libxml++.h> with #include "absolute path to above header file". Note that using the -I flag also allows you to replace " " after the #include with < > tags.

add -I/usr/include/libxml++-2.6/libxml++ when compiling.
