Linker errors when compiling against glib...?

Question

I'm having trouble compiling a simple, sample program against glib on Ubuntu. I get the following errors. I can get it to compile but not link with the -c flag, which I believe means I have the glib headers installed, but it's not finding the shared object code. See also the Make file below.

$> make re
gcc -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include  -lglib-2.0       re.c   -o re

  GRegex *regex;
  GMatchInfo *match_info;

  regex = g_regex_new("[A-Z]+", 0, 0, NULL);
  g_regex_match(regex, string, 0, &match_info);

  while (g_match_info_matches(match_info))
    {
      gchar *word = g_match_info_fetch(match_info, 0);
      g_print("Found %s\n", word);
      g_free(word);
      g_match_info_next(match_info, NULL);
    }

  g_match_info_free(match_info);
  g_regex_unref(regex);
}

int main()
{
  gchar *string = "My body is a cage.  My mind is THE key.";

  print_uppercase_words(string);
}

Strangely, when I run glib-config, it doesn't like that command, though I don't know how to tell Bash or Make how to just use one over the other when it complains that gdlib-config is in these two packages.

$> glib-config
No command 'glib-config' found, did you mean:
 Command 'gdlib-config' from package 'libgd2-xpm-dev' (main)
 Command 'gdlib-config' from package 'libgd2-noxpm-dev' (main)
glib-config: command not found

Answer 1

Libraries at the end of the compiler command:

gcc -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include re.c -o re -lglib-2.0

From GCC Link Options:

-llibrary
-l library
    Search the library named library when linking. 
    (The second alternative with the library as a separate argument
    is only for POSIX compliance and is not recommended.)

    It makes a difference where in the command you write this option;
    the linker searches and processes libraries and object files in the
    order they are specified.
    Thus, `foo.o -lz bar.o' searches library `z' after file foo.o but
    before bar.o. If bar.o refers to functions in `z', those functions
    may not be loaded.

gcc -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include re.c -o re -lglib-2.0

Uh -- hell -- I've tried so many things and probably got them all a little wrong, but I tried the above just now, and it worked.... soooo solved.
