Makefile linking problem

Linux
1

Hi, two days ago I updated my os to ubuntu 16.04 and now when i run the autogenerated makefile of my program i have “undefined reference” linking problem with the function
juce::String::String(std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits, std::allocator > const&)
and other juce::String functions.
before the update everything worked good.
what can be changed and what can i do?

thank you for attention

This looks like your Ubuntu upgrade has also updated your compiler. I would recommend deleting all build products and any libraries you are linking against, and recompiling them all from scratch.
