error in running tesseract with API example

[nick]

hi, i want to run tesseract with this code :

#include <tesseract/baseapi.h>
#include <leptonica/allheaders.h>

int main()
{
    char *outText;

    tesseract::TessBaseAPI *api = new tesseract::TessBaseAPI();
    // Initialize tesseract-ocr with English, without specifying tessdata path
    if (api->Init(NULL, "eng")) {
        fprintf(stderr, "Could not initialize tesseract.\n");
        exit(1);
    }

    // Open input image with leptonica library
    Pix *image = pixRead("/usr/src/tesseract/testing/phototest.tif");
    api->SetImage(image);
    // Get OCR result
    outText = api->GetUTF8Text();
    printf("OCR output:\n%s", outText);

    // Destroy used object and release memory
    api->End();
    delete [] outText;
    pixDestroy(&image);

    return 0;
}

but raised this error:

 

/home/myuser/local/lib/libtesseract.so: undefined reference to `pixaDisplayTiledInColumns'

/home/myuser/local/lib/libtesseract.so: undefined reference to `pixReadFromMultipageTiff'
/home/myuser/local/lib/libtesseract.so: undefined reference to `pixReadMemFromMultipageTiff'
/home/myuser/local/lib/libtesseract.so: undefined reference to `pixGenerateHalftoneMask'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

anyone could help me how resolve it ?

thanks

I solved that error.

but now , raised a new error:

Failed loading language 'eng'

Tesseract couldn't load any languages!

Could not initialize tesseract.

How you solved ? Because I have the same errors ... would be very hand full when you write that you solve something, to write how you solved :)

Your $TESSDATA_DIR variable is not pointing to the tessdata directory. Please ensure you have the correct tessdata directory pointed to by that variable.
