I'm trying to build a simple c++11 program linking with a shared lib (dynamic library) using waf-1.8.8.
The particularity is that I'm not trying to build this lib, because I already have the dev version, which means the declarations (.hpp headers) and the definitions (.so files under linux, .dll + .lib under windows).
I am only trying to link like that:
$ g++ src/main.cpp -o mySFMLprogram.bin -std=c++11 -IthirdParty/SFML-2.2/include -LthirdParty/SFML-2.2/lib -lsfml-graphics -lsfml-system -lsfml-window
That works very well from the base dir of my project.
What does not work is making this with a wscript / waf system... I don't find how to make the equivalent to -LthirdParty/SFML-2.2/lib (giving a new search dir to the linker, man gcc says Add directory dir to the list of directories to be searched for -l.).
Here is the simplified tree of my project:

EDIT: update my files after @mkaes first explanation
The root wscript is:
#! /usr/bin/env python
# encoding: utf-8
import os
VERSION = "0.1"
APPNAME = "wafTest"
def options(opt):
opt.load('compiler_cxx')
def configure(cfg):
cfg.load('compiler_cxx')
cfg.LIB_SFML = ['sfml-graphics', 'sfml-system', 'sfml-window']
cfg.INCLUDES_SFML = ['thirdParty/SFML-2.2/include')]
cfg.LIBPATH_SFML = ['thirdParty/SFML-2.2/lib')]
cfg.check(
features='cxx cxxprogram',
cxxflags=['-std=c++11', '-Wall'],
)
def build(bld):
bld.recurse('src')
And the src wscript is:
#! /usr/bin/env python
# encoding: utf-8
def build(bld):
#EDIT removed bld(name = 'sfml-graphics', export_includes = '../thirdParty/SFML-2.2/include')
#EDIT removed bld(name = 'sfml-window', export_includes = '../thirdParty/SFML-2.2/include')
#EDIT removed bld(name = 'sfml-system', export_includes = '../thirdParty/SFML-2.2/include')
bld.program(
features='cxx cxxprogram', #is it an option ?
source='main.cpp',
target='app',
use = ['SFML'], #first try> compilation error, headers missing
includes = '../thirdParty/SFML-2.2/include' #second try> link error, lib missing
)
Source code of src/main.cpp (easy it's taken from SFML basic test programs):
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
int main()
{
// create the window
sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(800, 600), "My window");
// run the program as long as the window is open
while (window.isOpen())
{
// check all the window's events that were triggered since the last iteration of the loop
sf::Event event;
while (window.pollEvent(event))
{
// "close requested" event: we close the window
if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
window.close();
}
// clear the window with black color
window.clear(sf::Color::Black);
// draw everything here...
// window.draw(...);
// end the current frame
window.display();
}
return 0;
}
