eclipse and /usr/lib/crt1.o(.text+0x18): In function `_start':

[babu198649]

hi

i got the following error

/usr/lib/crt1.o(.text+0x18): In function `_start':
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/bala/workspace_qtdemo/anim_mainwindow'
: undefined reference to `main'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [anim_mainwindow] Error 1
make: *** [release] Error 2

while compiling this program in eclipse

#include <QApplication>
 
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
	return a.exec();
}

#include <QApplication>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
	return a.exec();
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

i googled and found that if there is no main in the program then this error occurs.

i have created a seperate project and compiled the same code by copying and pasting the same ,it works fine .

so what is causing this error.
