Re: [Seqan-dev] Starting with SeqAn

[Rahn, René <Rene.Rahn@fu-berlin.de>]

Hi, welcome to SeqAn.

You need to tell the compiler where to find the SeqAn library. Since SeqAn is header only you only need to add -I /path_to_seqan/include to the compiler call.

It then should find the SeqAn header.

HTH,

Hello, 

I am new to c++ and seqAn. To begin with, I am trying to compile the following simple program (simple.cpp) like this 

g++ -o simple simple.cpp -std=c++11

But I know that I am not able to link to header files that is included. Can anyone help me how to start?

simple.cpp

#include <seqan/sequence.h>

int main(int argc, char const ** argv)
{
    seqan::String<char> programName = argv[0];
    if (argc > 1)
    {
        seqan::String<char> firstArg = argv[1];
        if (argc > 2)
            return 1;
    }
    return 0;
}
