Compiling the Program

 % ./build.sh 

Listing 7.19 File build.sh contents: The Commands Used to Compile the SESI Order Application

 01 clear  02  03 gcc -Wall -g -o sesi_order.exe callbacks.c interface.c \  04              support.c   main.c  sesi_utils.c \  05     `gtk-config --cflags --libs` \  06     -I/usr/include/mysql \  07     -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lm -lz 

Line 1 simply clears the screen; this makes it more readable if any compile errors occur. Lines 3 and 4 are the compile commands and the target files; the backslash character (\) is the line-continuation character.

Line 5 sets the GTK+ flags and libraries. (Don t forget that those are back-tick marks, not single quotation marks.) Line 6 includes the MySQL library, whereas line 7 links the MySQL, math, and zlib libraries.
