Hello:

I execute make ,then get error:

$ make

Why system can not find these function ,they are system file
<stdlib.h<new<c math>
which has been included in my app.c.
What should I do?
Eager to receive your reply!

my configure.in file:

AC_INIT(main, 0.1, zq*******@gmail .com)
AM_INIT_AUTOMAK E(foreign)
AC_PROG_CC
AC_PROG_CXX
AM_PROG_LIBTOOL
AC_OUTPUT(Makef ile libsbml/src/Makefile)

my Makefile.am file:

bin_PROGRAMS = test
SUBDIRS = libsbml/src .
test_SOURCES = test.c

test_LDADD = libsbml/src/libsbml.la -lsbml -lstdc++ -lm

AM_CPPFLAGS = -Ilibsbml/include

my libsbml/src/Makefile.am

AUTOMAKE_OPTS = gnu

You are building something as C++ and this is a C group. If you should
be building as C, fix things so you do, if you are building C++ code,
try a platform or gnu list where you will get better help. Tool
problems are as off topic on c.l.c++ as they are here.

What should I do?

Your questions are not about the C language, and you will
get better answers if you ask elsewhere. However, this
question indicates a fundamental misunderstandin g about
header files and libraries. If a function is declared
in the header and you include that header, then the
compiler has a declaration of the function, but
the linker does not necessarily have a definition
of the function. Consider this example:

/* BROKEN CODE */
extern int foo( int );
int main( void )
{
return foo( 5 );
}

Would you expect this to build? Chances are good you'll
get an error something like:

Undefined symbols:
"_foo", referenced from:
_main in cc46tCIn.o
ld: symbol(s) not found
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

The situation is the same if foo is declared in foo.h and
you write:
#include <foo.h>
int main( void ) { return foo(); }

Declarations appearing in the header files have (almost)
absolutely nothing to do with the error you are seeing.
