[gmx-users] how to compile and make a C analyzing code under GROMACS 5.0

[qiaobf]

Dear Mark,

Thanks a lot for your kind help. I have corrected the linkages to the 
heading files. However, I got a few more problems:
1)  The math library is not recognized when compiling. See below for the 
error message. Is there a way to add the flag of "-lm" under cmake? For 
instance, "gcc test.c -lm -o test" works where sqrt is also used.
> undefined reference to symbol 'sqrt@@GLIBC_2.2.5'
2) If the line with "sqrt" function is commented out, the g_density2 can 
be successfully generated. however, the "./g_density2 -h" is not working 
to display the help contents. Could you please give me some suggestions?

I am looking forward to your kind help, and appreciate your time!

best regards,
Baofu
