sir,
In my turbo c++ program, I can't run any of the graphics program. When it compile, it shows the error's like:
undefined symbol _line, _closegraph,_ getmaxx etc...
Is it due to the settings of my c-program?

A:
Those errors are typical of a missing library in your build. Try linking the appropriate libraries and rebuild the solution (most likely graphics.lib).

How are so sure that it's not missing headerfile, i.e. not a compile error but a linker error?

A:
It's compile error and not link error. Looks like "graphics.h" is missing.
Do
#include "graphics.h"

The question clearly says 'when i tried to compile'. In turbo c++ compiler, it does not list link errors pertaining to missing library during compile-time. So I said missing headerfile. Whats wrong with that? And why negative?

A:
Is this an old program that was written for Turbo C++, and that you're trying to compile with a modern compiler? If so, it might be the case that the program uses compiler-specific extensions and libraries, that are simply not available in the compiler you're using now.
If that is the case, you must either
- find an existing library for your current environment that emulates the old Turbo C++ one, or
- find out exactly what each call is supposed to do, and change the code to use something that your environment supports.
