I would like to post [this question](http://stackoverflow.com/q/32328960/719276 ) on a mozilla forum, this is the best forum I found.

I successfully [compiled spidermonkey](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/SpiderMonkey/Build_Documentation) (on windows), how can I link against it now (to [embed it](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/SpiderMonkey/How_to_embed_the_JavaScript_engine))?

[js-config](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/SpiderMonkey/Build_Documentation#Using_the_js-config_script) is not properly installed, and I don't understand [this workaround](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/SpiderMonkey/Releases/1.8.5#js-config). Linking to the static library should be easier, but I don't even know which file it is. I have `mozglue.lib, mozjs-43a1.lib, nspr4.lib, plc4.lib, plds4.lib` in `dist/sdk/lib` and `nspr4.lib, plc4.lib, plds4.lib` in `dist/lib`.

      • Notes***
  • I used the following command to compile:*
   g++ -std=c++11 -I<objdir>/dist/include -L<objdir>/dist/lib helloworld.cpp -o helloworld  -lmozjs-31 -lz -lpthread -ldl 
  • I know it is not the correct way to compile it since those libraries are not in `<objdir>/dist/lib`. It returns the following errors:*
   [...]/jscpucfg.h:121:3: erreur:
   #error "Cannot determine endianness of your platform. Please add support to jscpucfg.h."
   [...]
   erreur: ‘JS_EvaluateScript’ was not declared in this scope
