How can we get this to work? If we compile it with:
We'll get something like:
... and maybe something about the
type used in the code:So we add the
...No errors during compilation, but when we try to execute
...... oops. We have to link this against the operating system's implementation of threads. In linux, this is the
library. The winning command is:and then:
