8.7 Unresolved externals when linking programs
==============================================

**Q*: Why do I get so many unresolved symbols when linking my programs?*

*A* :  By default, GCC instructs the linker to only look in two libraries: 
`libgcc.a' and `libc.a'.  Some functions aren't included there, so the 
linker can't find them.  GPL library routines, like obstack and regex
packages are in `libgpl.a' library; append `-lgpl' to the link command
line to use them.  To use C++ classes in the `libgpp.a' (it's called
`libg++.a' on Unix systems), append `-lgpp'.  If you only use the
`iostream' classes and don't want your program to be affected by the GNU
Copyleft, use the `libiostream.a' library by appending `-liostream' (these
are also included in the `libgpp.a' library).
