Undefined symbols: "_NewSpeechChannel", referenced from...

Hello.

I'm an absolute beginner in developing for OSX and C programming in general.

I'm following the instructions step-by-step to writing a very simple program that makes use of the OSX Speech Synthesizer.

However the program won't compile and instead it lanuches this error:

> Undefined symbols:

> "_NewSpeechChannel", referenced from:

> > _main in ccRRVBTR.o

> ld: symbol(s) not found

> collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I'm aware that the problem arises from the lack of proper linking to the actual implementation of the NewSpeechChannel function.

However it is a system function and I guess it should be linked by default. In any case, what should I do next to make it compile properly?

The simple program is this (so far):

#include<stdio.h>

#include<ApplicationServices/ApplicationServices.h>

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

SpeechChannel speechchannel;

NewSpeechChannel( NULL, &speechchannel );

}

The reference of the Speech Synthesis Manager (the C API for speech synthesis) sits here:

https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Carbon/Reference/Speech_S ynthesis_Manager/Reference/reference.html

None of the functions listed in the reference compile, along with NewSpeechChannel.

I know it is a very basic question by any help is welcome, as I'm stuck at the very beginning of my project.

Thanks!

PS: I tried it on both OS X 10.6.8 and 10.7.5
