Reading the API doc I saw tha mediacontrol_new had three arguments,
but when a looked at the code I had downloaded (VLC version 0.8.6a) I
saw that it only got to (of course, it wouldn't compile otherwise):
the char** and the mediacontrol_Exception*. It seemed odd.

ok, now, with that same code, I'm trying

g++ jdplayer.cpp -O0 -g3 -o jjdplayer `vlc-config --cflags --libs vlc` -lvlc
and also
g++ jdplayer.cpp -O0 -g3 -o jjdplayer `vlc-config --cflags vlc --libs vlc` -lvlc

both gave me:

jdplayer.cpp:32: undefined reference to `mediacontrol_new'

I also had to #undef __VLC__, otherwise it would cry for an inexistent
vlc_common.h
I'm on a Debian box with gcc 4.1

any idea?
thanks!
