Compile OpenGL program in Mac Terminal - c++

Question

I am using Mac Os X 10.9.5 fully updated with XCode version 6.0.1. I have also installed the command line utilities that have to be installed after installing XCode. I am using GLFW and GLEW in my openGL libraries. GLEW was installed manually while GLFW was installed with Macports.
I want to do coding without XCode as I have been doing it on Windows (with MingW) and Linux. I have googled how to compile the program and also searched on stackoverflow.
So, currently my compile command looks like this
(This is a C++ program)
g++ -framework Cocoa -framework OpenGL -framework CoreFoundation -framework CoreVideo -framework IOKit -L/usr/lib -L/usr/local/lib -I/usr/include/GLFW -I/usr/local/include/GL main.cpp -o main
I keep on getting the following error:
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
"_glfwCreateWindow", referenced from:
_main in main-ba7a57.o
"_glfwInit", referenced from:
_main in main-ba7a57.o
"_glfwMakeContextCurrent", referenced from:
_main in main-ba7a57.o
"_glfwTerminate", referenced from:
_main in main-ba7a57.o
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
The program is:
#define GLEW_STATIC
#include <glew.h>
#include <glfw3.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
GLFWwindow* window;
if(!glfwInit()) exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
window = glfwCreateWindow(1024, 768, "glfw", NULL, NULL);
if(!window) {
glfwTerminate();
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
glfwMakeContextCurrent(window);
const GLubyte* version = glGetString(GL_VERSION);
cout << "OpenGL version: " << version << endl;
glfwTerminate();
return 0;
}

Answer 1

It's only a guess, but try adding `-lglfw' to the end of your command-line. This tells g++ to compile against libglfw.

Answer 2

The fact that the error says Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64 makes me think perhaps the versions of the libraries you installed were built to target 64 bit architectures. Remember when choosing libraries to install that you should be choosing 32 bit or 64 bit versions based on which architectures you intend to target, not which architecture your development machine uses.
See this other question for reference.
