How to get started using Poco library?

Question

I have the following files which I currently just want to manage to compile successfully. I have looked for a tutorial on how to use Poco, but unfortunately I couldn't find one for a complete beginner (I tried to follow the docs both under linux & eclipse, and win & vs08.)

I would very much appreciate if someone could guide me through the correct use of the Poco library (either under eclipse or vs08.)

edit: found the problem, i didn't specify to the linker the exact libraries, only their search paths.

You could look into how to use the POCO C++ as a static library in eclipse, then you first need to go through the process of building POCO for your architecture using make and the configure script included in the POCO C++.

Next you should be able to find some tutorials on how to include static libraries (and headers) in eclipse VS.

There are plenty of sources on the internet. For example their forum and this example
