Ubuntu C++ app - What libs to use

[Jason Josephy]

I am trying to use V8 directly in my c++ app, but i have no idea what libs to link to. I have tried many different configurations and get all sorts of different unresolved external errors, far to many to post here. So what is the right incantation for linking? Any advice? 

thanks

The short answer follows:

# assuming linux vs. windows/osx/etc.
git clone https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools.git
export PATH=$PWD/depot_tools:$PATH
fetch v8
# assuming gcc instead of clang
# assuming x64/amd64/x86_64 vs i386/i686/ia32
# assuming no i18n
cd v8
make GYPFLAGS="-Dclang=0" x64.release i18nsupport=off
cd ../
g++ -I v8/ mycode.cpp -o mycode -Wl,--start-group
v8/out/x64.release/obj.target/{tools/gyp/libv8_{base,libbase,snapshot,libplatform}}.a
-Wl,--end-group -lrt -pthread
./mycode
