Strange error when including Graphics.hpp - SFML

Question

I'm trying to setup an SFML 2.1 64 bit project on Ubuntu 12.04(also 64 bit) using eclipse cdt.

First I made a new project called LearningSFML.
Then I went to Project>Properties>C/C++ Build>Settings
Under GCC C++ Compiler>Includes I added the path to my include folder
And under GCC C++ Linker>Libraries I added sfml-window, sfml-graphics, sfml-system(in that order) to the "Libraries" list
And finally added < SFML_PATH >/lib to the "Library search path" list box

After doing this, I tested it with the following code

#include <SFML/Window.hpp>

int main()
{
    sf::Window window(sf::VideoMode(640, 480), "Learning SFML");

    return 0;
}

And if flashed a window as you would expect. But changing the code slightly to use sf::RenderWindow instead of sf::Window:

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main()
{
    sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(640, 480), "Learning SFML");

    return 0;
}

creates an error saying make: *** [LearningSFML] Error 1. I searched the internet for similar problems. One website I found said that the error means there is no main function, but clearly I do have a main function.

So how can I fix this error?

@RetiredNinja That is all it says. It's under the "Problems" tab on eclipse. — Xerif917

You should be able to find the full error from the compiler output. — Retired Ninja

The console was outputting warning: libjpeg.so.62, needed by lib/libsfml-graphics.so, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link) which is where I was an idiot because I didn't look at this until RetiredNinja's comment.

To fix it just install libjpeg: sudo apt-get install libjpeg62
