[Will hunting]

hi, when compiling using makefile on unix, I encounter such problem,
anyone has similar experience on this?
what could be the possible cause? thanks

Sounds like you forgot to:
#include <string>
#include <vector>

Or, the method:
solveFPC in the class FpcIntegration is not defined.

thanks, I have found that in my makefile, I forgot to add -lfpc to
include the libfpc.so shared objects, so that when linking, error msg
symbol not defined appeared.
