I have tried the suggestions in this link with no luck.
<png.h> not found in mac os X mavericks
I am currently running OS X 10.11.3 and am using homebrew to install all the packages I need and my libpng has the same paths as the link above.
I installed libpng and zlib but when running my makefile with clang++ and -lpng I get the error
png.h file not found
I am not sure how to link png.h with the compiler without having to add extra flags in the makefile (I don't want to do this because my university uses svn and the makefile has to work on my personal computer and our linux workstations which don't need the extra flags).
Any advice is appreciated.
