Building Error with gcc... [message #59805]

I used Eclipse a bit and found it's very nice IDE.
However I faced a problem while building my simple "Hello, World!" program.
My error message was like the following:
**/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/3.2/../../../../i686-pc-cy gwin/bin/ld:
cannot find -luser32
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status**

I guess the main reason might be gcc which has wrong pathname between
cygwin and actual Windows.Thus gcc cannot find any required library and
files.
Does anyone know this problem? If yes, I really appreciate your help in
advance.

thanks!!!

I think your problen id because You're using an absolute path... You
should specify only relative paths...

-luser32 means that you want to link to user32.dll. Is this DLL
available on your system?
If so, tell gcc where by using the -L flag (i.e.
-L/my/user32/dll/file/is/here)
