what is the json-spirit linker flag for g++?

Question

I can't find this anywhere.

I've installed json-spirit on my ubuntu server with apt-get install json-spirit-dev.

What linker flag has to be used with g++ to use json-spirit?

Answer 1

The only library listed in that package is called libjson_spirit.a. You can link with it by adding -ljson_spirit to your linker step.
