Thanks Remi,

I tried find the ibvlc.so, but the are all in the hidden directory '.libs',

$ find . -name libvlc*.so
./src/.libs/libvlc.so
./src/.libs/libvlc-control.so
./build/mozilla/.libs/libvlcplugin.so
./build/src/.libs/libvlc.so
./build/src/.libs/libvlc-control.so

But there is a libvlc*.la file which is not inside the hidden directory. So
you please tell me how can i link vlc with my c++ application?

$ find . -name libvlc*.la
./libs/srtp/.libs/libvlc_srtp.la
./libs/srtp/libvlc_srtp.la
./src/libvlc-control.la
./src/.libs/libvlc-control.la
./src/.libs/libvlc.la
./src/libvlc.la
./build/mozilla/.libs/libvlcplugin.la
./build/mozilla/libvlcplugin.la
./build/libs/srtp/.libs/libvlc_srtp.la
./build/libs/srtp/libvlc_srtp.la
./build/src/libvlc-control.la
./build/src/.libs/libvlc-control.la
./build/src/.libs/libvlc.la
./build/src/libvlc.la
