title: Getting started with C++ and Spotify API
body: <p>I decided to start learning C++ by actually working a little bit with Spotifi's API.</p>
  
  <p>So I downloaded the proper files for the windows environment, and set MinGW to use it to compile.</p>
  
  <p>Now, everything set, I load the Spotify-examples folder in a Sublime2 Project and run a Build, but the problem is that I can't seem to pass the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe:D:\W0RK\Software\spotify-examples\Makefile: file format not recognized; treating as linker script
  c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe:D:\W0RK\Software\spotify-examples\Makefile:1: syntax error
  collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
  [Finished in 0.4s with exit code 1]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is my custom sublime build config:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{
      "cmd": ["C:\\MinGW\\bin\\mingw32-g++.exe", "-Wall", "-time", "--verbose", "$file", "-o", "$file_base_name"]
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Am I missing any step in building process?</p>
