Does the -L option ensure the sub-directories are searched recursively?

No. Each folder requires a -L entry.

Two files: libhts.so and libhts.a may be the ones I need(permission is checked to be correct). So I tried:

I presumed htslib-1.10-2 was your library. The -l option is for the library itself. If the library is libhts.so then use -lhts

Thanks a lot.

I'll have a look.

Ok. I didn't see a link but grabbed it from github.

If you use the archive its simplest. I'm going to call the root path of the directory where you build the library LIBROOT. You should replace this with the actual path.

Code:

gcc -Wall -O3 -o vcf_parser01 vcf.c vcf_parser01.c -I LIBROOT/htslib LIBROOT/libhts.a

should work.
