Using the Nautilus View

[Peter Snyder <peter e snyder lawrence edu>]

Hello everyone,

Let me start off by saying that have been told that the nautilus view
api is not officially supposed to be used by external projects.  That
being said, I think that it would take less work to update my program
between nautilus versions than to recreate the functionality of the
nautilus view myself.

So, my question is as follows:
  
I am having trouble dealing with the Nautilus list view.  I am using the
function "nautilus_view_open_location_in_this_window", located in
libnautilus/nautilus-view.h, to try to change the dir, but to no avail. 
I keep getting a compiler warning that tells me that that function is
undefined.  I double checked my includes; it reads 

#include <libnautilus/nautilus-view.h>.  

Is there anything else that could be causing this madness?

A stranger part of the problem is that gcc tells me that I am not
casting correctly in the function, which suggests that it founds the
header at some point.  

ie. I get both:

warning: passing arg 1 of 'nautilus_view_open_location_in_this_window'
from incompatible pointer type
AND
undefined reference to 'nautilus_view_open_location_in_this_window'

While I have since fixed away the first error, I am still stuck.  Any
help anyone could provide would be much appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
