Hi,

    i have built a baseR3.15.6 on Ubuntu16. and then then i get the EPICS CA Client Library libCa.so and EPICS Common Library libCom.so. then i include these libs and other .h files in Eclise. i want to use API to write a CA Client by myself. the path i include are like this:

        ‘’‘

        <base>/include

        <base>/include/os/linux

        <base>/lib/linux-x86_64

        ’‘’


    in order to test if the API is available, i download a example lesson1 on

        http://epics.web.psi.ch/training/caClientLessons/#lesson1.

    and i copy its code into the Eclise's source file. then i try to run it, but errors come out like following:

        '''

        /home/xlg/eclipse-workspace/testEPICS/Debug/../main.c:43: undefined reference to `ca_task_initialize'
        makefile:29: recipe for target 'testEPICS' failed

        /home/xlg/eclipse-workspace/testEPICS/Debug/../main.c:169: undefined reference to `ca_task_exit'
        collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
        make: *** [testEPICS] Error 1
        "make all" terminated with exit code 2. Build might be incomplete.        

        '''

    it seems that the program can't find the API functions, but i actually include them in path.

    i don't know what wrong is.

    by the way, someone else tell me that i just need libCa.so, libCom and some .h files to write a CA Client. is that ture?
