Compile a C++ code containing RooUnfold classes

Dear Experts,

I’ve just installed the RooUnfold package. I managed to run the example code as described on the github page (GitHub - roofit-dev/RooUnfold: A fork of https://gitlab.cern.ch/RooUnfold/RooUnfold.git for non-cern developers of the code base)
At the moment, I can only use the package if I use ROOT when I’m in the RooUnfold directory.
How can I use it elsewhere, and how do I compile a C++ code that contain the classes from RooUnfold?

Thank you very much,
Hoa.

Update: I figured out how to compile the code.
I need to pass the library name to the linker, as follow:

g++ -o test1 test1.C -I /path_to/RooUnfold/src -L /path_to/RooUnfold -l RooUnfold `root-config --cflags --libs`

Please read tips for efficient and successful posting and posting code

ROOT Version: 6.20 ( pre-compiled)
Platform: CentOS 7
Compiler: Not Provided

Hi,

It seems you have fixed the issue. Please note, RooUnfold is not part of ROOT, I am sure if you have still problems you can ask directly to the author of the package and @cburgard may also help you.
