Netbeans: error while loading shared libraries: libicuuc.so.50: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Question

I'm trying to use the ICU-Timezone API with Netbeans c++(7.3) under Ubuntu with.

I have added the Librarys and include directory for ICU.

Then I want to execute this simple example code:

#include <ctime>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include "DateFormats.h"
#include "NumberFormats.h"
#include <time.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <getopt.h>
#include <timezone.h>
using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    cout<<"hello"<<endl;
    TimeZone *tz = TimeZone::createTimeZone("America/Los_Angeles");  
}

I get the Error

/home/ubuntu/NetBeansProjects/DFC/dist/Debug/GNU-Linux-x86/dfc: error while loading shared libraries: libicuuc.so.50: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Hope you can help me!

Thanks Florian

Is the shared object file exist on your system? is it on correct path such that it can be found? — taocp
Project Properties > Build > Linker > Libraries I have added a few libraries, also libicuuc.so. Do I have to add libicuuc.so.50 seperately? — user2071938
now I have the same error with "libicui18n.so.50" what are those .50 files? — user2071938
.50 is the version number, see here: faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Program-Library-HOWTO.html#AEN46 — taocp

run followed command is fine

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib

or you can use vi to add to file permanently

vi ~/.bashrc
