Getting Stroustrup's FLTK code to work in Code::Blocks for Windows

The following versions were used: fltk v1.3.3, Code::Blocks 16.01, and Windows 7

To get FLTK working with Code::Blocks in Windows, follow instructions found here: http://watashigaseigida.blogspot.com.au/2016/01/using-fltk-with-codeblocks-for-windows.html

Below is the solution to getting the code from '12.3 A first example' to work found in Bjarne's Stroustrup's book: Programming: Principles and Practices using C++, second edition. The solution below is a step by step breakdown of the errors I encountered and how to fix them.

Create a new FLTK project. The following files should be in the project as shown below. All the files can be found here (http://stroustrup.com/Programming/PPP2code/) with the exception of main.cpp, which you create yourself.

Compile and check for errors. Compile after correcting for each error encountered.

Error 1: 'vector' does not name a type

Solution: uncomment line 10 in Graph.h.

Error 2: no matching function for call to 'Graph_lib::Point::Point(int, int)'

Solution: uncomment constructors in line 11 and 12 in Point.h

Error 3: cannot convert std::ifstream to 'bool' in return

Solution: Change line 313 in Graph.cpp to return (bool) ff;

Error 4: redefinition of 'Graph_lib::Menu::Menu(Graph_lib::Point, int, int, Graph_lib::Menu::Kind, const string&)'

Solution: in GUI.h, comment out line 96 and 97 and add a semicolon to the  end of line 95

Error 5: reference to 'Window' is ambiguous

Solution: add Graph_lib:: before Window in line 9 of Simple_window.h

Error 6: reference to Polygon is ambiguous

Solution: add Graph_lib:: before Polygon in line 12 of main.cpp

Error 7: undefined reference to 'Fl_JPEG_Image::Fl_JPEG_Image(char const*)'

Solution: Go to Settings → Compiler → Linker settings → Other linker options.

Add the following lines to Other linker options

-lfltk_images

-lfltk_jpeg

Alternatively, instead of applying the -lfltk_images and -lfltk_jpeg to the global compiler, one can add them to individual projects. Right click the project name →  Properties →  Project settings tab →  Project's build options →  Linker settings →  Other linker options.
