I got linker error trying to compile this simple code:

#include <opencv2/core/core.hpp>
#include <opencv2/highgui/highgui.hpp>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace cv;

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

    std::string filename = argv[1];
    Mat A;
    A = imread(filename);
    return 0;
}

Here is the makefile:

CXX=g++
LDFLAGS=`pkg-config --libs opencv`
CXXFLAGS=-Wall -v
CXXFLAGS+=`pkg-config --cflags opencv`


cam_calibration.o : cam_calibration.cxx
    $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) cam_calibration.cxx

clean : 
    rm *.o

The error is following (after issuing "make"):

/tmp/cccbWfsF.o: In function `main':
cam_calibration.cxx:(.text+0x6b): undefined reference to `cv::imread(std::string const&, int)'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

What is wrong with this code? I'm using Archlinux, g++ (5.2.0) and have all the opencv libraries in version 2.4

what is the output of pkg-config --libs opencv ? try to run it on a console.

in the end, -l opencv_highgui seems to be missing

Find the reason it was gcc (can't post answer I'm new -- need to wait 2 days), here is output you asked, highgui is not missing;

Thanks for interest - if you have any idea why gcc 5.3.x is ok, and gcc 5.2.0 gives and error please share.

if it fits into a comment, write a comment, and we'll propell it into an answer !

(and no, not the slightest idea why)

FIXED: It was gcc. For some magical, unknown reason gcc 5.2.0 can't link code I've posted properly, whereas with gcc 5.3.x everything is ok. Mark as fixed.
