Compilation error for TMVA Reader() and Instances()

TMVA
1

Dear experts,

While I was compiling my c++ code (hist_mass_vn.C) with the following command it is showing me some errors mentioned below. In my code, I am using the TMVA Reader() and the .xml files that are produced after BDT training because of that it is showing an error. I tried with multiple options available for compilation but nothing worked in my case. I will appreciate any kind of help on this.

Compilation command I am using:
g++ -o vn.out hist_mass_vn.C root-config --cflags --glibs`

Error I am getting:

/tmp/nsaha/ccmMt5bV.o: In function `hist_mass_vn(int)':

Add: -lTMVA

You mean: g++ -o vn.out hist_mass_vn.C root-config --cflags --glibs -lTMVA

Please correct me if I am wrong!

Still Iā€™m getting error:

Unknown argument "-lTMVA"!

This time I am getting errors for all the .h files included.

$(root-config --cxx --cflags) -o vn.out hist_mass_vn.C $(root-config --glibs) -lTMVA
