title: How to add libraries in C++?
body: <p>Yea this is a dumb question... However in both of my C++ classes we did not do this at all (except for native libraries: iostream, iomanip, etc.)... My question is can anyone provide a link that gives the general explanation of adding libraries to C++? </p>
  
  <p>I do realize what what #include means; it's just I have no clue on the linker/directories in a C++ IDE.</p>
  
  <p>So long question short; could I get a general explanation of terms used to link libraries in C++?</p>
  
  <p>I'm using c::b w/ MinGW.</p>
