Build Identifier: 5.3.0

When I try to build my project, the log shows that it can't find "-l/usr/lib/libgmp.so". I tried this command without "-l" in terminal and it works.
**** Build of configuration Debug for project test ****

make all 
Building target: test
Invoking: GCC C++ Linker
g++  -o "test"  ./test.o   -l/usr/lib/libgmp.so
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -l/usr/lib/libgmp.so
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [test] Error 1

**** Build Finished ****

Reproducible: Always

gcc version 4.6.1 20110819 (prerelease) (GCC)

That message is coming from gcc compiler/linker not from CDT. You probably need to use -lgmp instead. If you need help, please, use GCC online documentation or ask in user forum at Eclipse Community Forums http://www.eclipse.org/forums/ - Language IDEs - CDT.
