Problems in the installation of TMDlib

[ccnu]

I downloaded the TMDlib source package from http://tmdlib.hepforge.org/
and installed it according to the documentation:

./configure --with-lhapdf=/usr/local/share/LHAPDF/
make
make install

All went well, but when I compiled the test code "TMDlib_test.cc" with g++, it didn't work, and the information was that all the functions like TMDlib::TMDalphas, TMDlib::TMDpdf, ... were not defined.

Any one have successfully installed and used the TMDlib? I will be very grateful if someone can tell me what goes wrong and how to make it work.

Regards!

The problem could be due to missing libraries in your linker path. Make sure that you have all the necessary libraries (like libTMDlib.so) in your linker path, and also make sure that your compiler knows where to find the TMDlib headers. You can check this by running the command "ldd TMDlib_test" to see if it can find the required libraries. If not, then you may need to modify your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to include the path to the TMDlib libraries.

If you are using Linux, the most likely cause of your problem is that you didn't specify the correct path for the TMDlib library when compiling the test code. To do this, add the "-L/usr/local/lib" option to the g++ command line:g++ -L/usr/local/lib TMDlib_test.cc -o TMDlib_test -ltmdlibIf you are using macOS, the path to the library may be different. In this case, please check the installation instructions for MacOS on the TMDlib website: http://tmdlib.hepforge.org/installation.html#macos.If the problem persists, please contact the TMDlib developers directly on the hepforge forum: https://hf-forum.hepforge.org/c/tmdlib.
