I'm trying to compile a program that calls the win32 function SetThreadExecutionState, in kernel32.dll [1]. The link step fails:
$ gcc -c nosleep.c $ gcc -o nosleep nosleep.o -lkernel32 nosleep.o:nosleep.c:(.text+0x1f): undefined reference to `_SetThreadExecutionState' nosleep.o:nosleep.c:(.text+0x5c): undefined reference to `_SetThreadExecutionState' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status According to the FAQ [2], I shouldn't even have to include -lkernel32. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks, Andrew.
