avcodec symbols not found

I am trying to build the example code in FFMPEG library I add the libavcode.h , libavcode.a in my project and I set the header search usr/local/include and the library search to usr/local/lib

when I compile the example I got this errors ... ( all of them related to avcodec library)

{

} do you know why I got this problem ?

Thanks

The solution is adding this to the header because FFMPEG written in C , I guess 

extern "C"
{
#ifndef __STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS
#define __STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS
#endif
#include <libavcodec/avcodec.h>
#include <libavformat/avformat.h>
#include "avassert.h"
#include "avutil.h"
#include "intreadwrite.h"
#include "mem.h"
 }
