How to compile Opencv C files ??

how to compile opencv C files ?

I’m reading Learning opencv computer vision with opencv library.

I have this error with the first example I made.

#include "highgui.h" // I tried using with <opencv/highgui.h> but it keep showing the same error

int main(int argc, char** argv ){


IplImage* img = cvLoadImage( argv[1]);

cvNamedWindow("Example1", CV_WINDOW_AUTOSIZE );

cvShowImage("Example1" , img );

cvWaitKey(0);

cvReleaseImage( &img );

cvDestroyWindow( "Example1" );

}

I compile using this command g++ -o example example.c pkg-config --cflags --libs opencv
