Can't link program using Boost.Filesystem

Question

I\'m trying to run program, using sample code of boost::filesystem on Ubuntu 12.10, but it doesn\'t want to build.

#include 
#include 

        

Answer 1

The solution that worked for me is to compile with "-c" and then create the executable like this:

g++ -c -o main.o main.cpp
g++ -o my_prog main.o -lboost_system -lboost_filesystem
