How to set up pdcurses on code blocks?

[blueeyedlion]

I've been trying to get pdcurses working in code blocks, unsuccessfully, for days now, and the website that supposedly has the easy installer (pdcurses.slashon.com) won't load. My current situation is that when I run the simple Hello World program, this error comes up: "undefined reference to 'stdscr'". Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,I wanno to help you.Can you describe your problem in detail? What's pdcurses?

[blueeyedlion]

pdcurses is a library that lets you display ascii characters on a grid with different character and background colours. Dwarf Fortress (google it) is an example of how you can use it for visuals.
My current problem is that I simply do not know how to properly set up a library properly, and every guide I have followed for similar problems has not worked.

It looks like you are not linking to the library.
Go to your project Build Options > Linker Settings > Add
And specify the path of the library binary file.

That was one of the first things I did. It didn't work.

Does anyone know some things I could try that might help?
