How to add a library to an Eclipse project

eclipse, eclipse-cdt

Solution

right click to project -> Properties -> C/C++ Build, go to Library and add it there.

if the library is `libgdi32.a`, you should add `gdi32` in the library section.

Problem

I'm trying to add a Library to Eclipse Galileo and it won't work out. Library: gdi32.lib -> In MinGW: libgdi32.a Whatever I try, it doesn't work. Can anyone tell me EXACTLY what to enter where, to accomplish this ? Details: I have the function call: ``` wndclassex.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH)GetStockObject(WHITE_BRUSH); ``` ... lead's to error: ``` WinMain.o: In function `WinMain': Z:/mtsts_workspace/MTSTS/Debug/../WinMain.c:29: undefined reference to `GetStockObject@4' ``` And I have the function call: ``` TextOut(hdc, 0, 0, TEXT("Hello World!"), 12); ``` ... lead's to error: ``` WinMain.o: In function `WndProc': Z:/mtsts_workspace/MTSTS/Debug/../WinMain.c:88: undefined reference to `TextOutA@20' ```
