How to compile the demo example of SoLoud library in C? - c

Question

I planned to use the SoLoud library (https://sol.gfxile.net/soloud/index.html) for my C project. I can't understand how to compile the C demo file contained in
/demos/c_test/
to make it executable.
Can someone help me to understand how to compile it using gcc?

Answer 1

in the demos/c_test/main.c,
I changed:
#include "soloud_c.h"
to
#include "../../include/soloud_c.h"
and it compiled. However, the compiler output the following warnings:
gcc -ggdb3 -Wall -Wextra -Wconversion -pedantic -std=gnu11 -c "main.c" -o "main.o" main.c:
In function ‘generate_sample’:
main.c:72:38: warning: conversion from ‘int’ to ‘float’ may change value [-Wconversion]
72 | buf[i] += (((rand() % 1024) - 512) / 512.0f) *

75 | float fade = (44100 * 10 - base) / (44100 * 10.0f);

129 | int main(int parc, char ** pars)

Compilation finished successfully.
Note: I did not bother to link the executable, however, I did note a few items of interest.
the available libraries are *.dll files, so this is expecting to be compiled/linked under the windows OS.
under the 'bin' directory are the libraries: soloud_x64.dll, soloud_x86.dll and SDL2.dll. I don't know which of these libraries your specific computer will need to include
