I’m quite new to C++ and I aspire to learn gtkmm. I’m using linux mint 17.2 and Eclipse 3.8. When I enter:#include <gtkmm.h> the compiler will complain and give this error:
fatal error: gtkmm.h: No such file or directory
I’ve used synaptic and installed libgtkmm-3.0-dev and when I search for the header file locate gtkmm.h I get back the following path:
/usr/include/gtkmm-3.0/gtkmm.h
So, now if enter to eclipse #include gtkmm-3.0/gtkmm.h I get a new error: fatal error: glibmm.h: No such file or directory
locate glibmm.h
shows me this path: /usr/include/glibmm-2.4/glibmm.h.
So if I enter again: #include <glibmm-2.4/glibmm.h>
I get back the same error. fatal error: glibmm.h: No such file or directory
So what am I missing here ?

OK I think I got it. in
Project->Properties -> C/C++ Build -> Settings ->GCC C++ Compiler-> Miscellaneous
you add
`pkg-config --cflags gtkmm-3.0`
in other flags.
In GCC/C++ Linker on Miscellaneous section you add `pkg-config --libs gtkmm-3.0` in other flags.
Now is GCC C++ Compiler again, on command line pattern you move the ${FLAGS} to the end.
It’s working so far here.
