Error with zip_open from libzip

I am learning C++, and I decided to make a little program that zip/unzip files to train me. I downloaded libzip and zlib and linked them to my compiler (MinGW with Code::Blocks on Windows). So I tried to open my zip file with zip_open() and got an error :

undefined reference to _imp__zip_open

Here is the code:

#include <zip.h>
#include <zlib.h>

int main()
{
    int error(0);
    zip *foo = zip_open("foo.zip", 0, &error);
    return 0;
}

I don't know where this is coming from and I would really like some help, because I don't find anything on Google (surely cause the problem is simple).

Thanks in advance!

Judging by the discussion on this thread from the libzip-discuss list it looks like you are trying to link against a static version of libzip but with the preprocessor symbol ZLIB_DLL defined. You should only have ZLIB_DLL defined if linking against the dll version.

It looks like you haven't linked to libzip. Make sure you are infact linking to it, and that the path to the lib is in your link path.
