I have been recently been trying to get started with GTKmm on my MacBook, and I have installed lots of the dependencies using Homebrew. However, when I go to compile my program, I get this error:
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
"HelloWorld::HelloWorld()", referenced from:
_main in main-88dc5e.o

ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
My program is this:
helloworld.h:
#ifndef GTKMM_EXAMPLE_HELLOWORLD_H
#define GTKMM_EXAMPLE_HELLOWORLD_H
#include <gtkmm-3.0/gtkmm/button.h>
#include <gtkmm-3.0/gtkmm/window.h>
class HelloWorld : public Gtk::Window {
public:
HelloWorld();
virtual ~HelloWorld();
protected:
//Signal handlers:
void on_button_clicked();
//Member widgets:
Gtk::Button m_button;
};
#endif
helloworld.cpp:
#include "helloworld.h"
#include <iostream>
HelloWorld::HelloWorld()
: m_button("Hello World") // creates a new button with label "Hello World".
{
// Sets the border width of the window.
set_border_width(10);
// When the button receives the "clicked" signal, it will call the
// on_button_clicked() method defined below.
m_button.signal_clicked().connect(sigc::mem_fun(*this,
&HelloWorld::on_button_clicked));
// This packs the button into the Window (a container).
add(m_button);
// The final step is to display this newly created widget...
m_button.show();
}
main.cpp:
#include "helloworld.h"
#include <gtkmm-3.0/gtkmm/application.h>
int main (int argc, char *argv[]) {
auto app = Gtk::Application::create(argc, argv, "org.gtkmm.example");
HelloWorld helloworld;
//Shows the window and returns when it is closed.
return app->run(helloworld);
}
...which comes from here.
I am using a Makefile to include all of the Homebrew-installed libraries:

I don't really understand this error. What does it mean? What do I need to do to solve it?
Thank you for your help.
Update: Tried linking the library .dylib files, but I am still getting the same exact error.
