link error

Below is my program and I am getting linking errors. They are listed below as well.
I know that it is something small and overlooked but please help me out. Thank you.

#include "cppvm.h"
int main()
{
// connect to pvm
cppvmConnection pvmConn;
// send descriptor
// (blocking send
// to parent process)
cppvmSendStream sendStrm(pvmConn,
CPPvmSBparent);

// message
cppvmString sendMsg("hello world!");

// send message
sendStrm << sendMsg;

return 0;
}

Assuming cppvm.cpp is the file that contains the definition of the functions that you are calling, add either the lib in which cppvm.cpp is included(if one exists) or add cppvm.cpp directly into your project. Both ways the linker would find the function definitions.
