ffmpeg编译问题

利用ffmpeg实现一个播放器，ffmpeg提供动态库，但是编译链接的时候遇到下面的问题：

 通过分析报错信息可以看到在链接阶段提示ffmpeg相关的api找不到符号，看到这个问题百思不得其解，该工程我是利用qt编译链接，可以肯定的是pro文件中已经通过LIBS关键字指明了依赖库的路径和依赖库的名称，但是仍然提示找不到，最后通过查阅资料，才了解问题产生的原因：qt工程是c++代码，ffmpeg是c原因编写的，当c++代码调用C库时对c++代码中调用的头文件需要使用extern "C"包含起来，以此让编译器按照C的方式编译ffmpeg相关的头文件。

解决方法如下：

#include <QWidget>
#include <QImage>
#include <QTimer>
#include <QPainter>
#include <QCoreApplication>
#include <QResizeEvent>
extern "C"   //按照C语言方式编译api接口
{
#include <libavformat/avformat.h>
#include <libavcodec/avcodec.h>
#include <libswscale/swscale.h>
#include <libavutil/avutil.h>
#include <libpostproc/postprocess.h>
#include <libavutil/ffversion.h>
#include <libavutil/imgutils.h>
}

总结

下面对编译阶段“undefined reference to”的报错原因进行总结，希望能够大家有所帮助：

• 产生这个报错简单的是就是依赖库未包含，就是说未指定依赖库的路径和和依赖库名称，这个通过LIBS关键字就可以解决
• 如果确定LIBS等类似的方式已经指明依赖库的路径和依赖库名称，还是有这个报错，那么确认下是否是C++代码调用了C语言的库，如果属实，那么就是用extern "C"关键字包含C库的头文件
