A linker error (in any language) is a failure to locate an external reference. Either the reference is incorrect, or the required library is not present. Correct the error accordingly.

Note: Just because the compiler generated the code, perhaps because the required header file was included, does not mean the related library file was specified. They are two distinct specifications.

What is a short note on linking error in c plus plus?

A linking error usually denotes some inconsistency between a function's declaration and its definition, typically meaning there is no matching definition for the declared function (an undefined function). Normally this is only a problem if the function is actually called since unused functions are of no concern to the linker, whether defined or not. Linker errors may not relate to errors within your code. An undefined function could simply be the result of not providing the linker with the full path to a function that is implemented in a library. The linker also needs access to all the object files generated by the compiler. If the linker options are correct then the problem is most likely that you've failed to define a declared function.
