Thanks!
Your replies calrified lots of my confusion to use third party library.
I think I understand the -IXYZ is for the compiling step. To confirm:
Scenario 1): Using all the source code at compiling time. Skip this case. Scenario 2): Using the .so/.a file. This is what my original post referred.

#include <header.h> for the compiler, and -lsomelibraryname for the linker, are really all that's required in the vast majority of cases.

Do you mean only the header files (*.h) is needed and be included in my code? In other words, is the header (*.h) file along with the .so file enough for the implementation of the functions in my code?
Thanks a lot!
