I’m trying to compile an old AI project I found here. I am using Netbeans 7.1 I’ve installed cygwin and the appropriate packages, as I can compile all the Netbeans sample projects. I’ve put all the files into a project named “sweepers” and when I try to build it, I get this output:

I’ve been googling these errors and come to the conclusion I am missing one or more libraries that have been included (this is just a guess though, as this is my first time compiling c++ or any kind of C outside of xCode on Mac.)
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong here? I feel like its extremely simple but I’m just missing a critical piece of information.
Thank you.
You’re definitely missing some GDI libraries at linking time. Someone knowledgeable at cygwin will probably let you know how to fix that.
