Thread: Execution Trouble

I am creating a small test program to call a shared object in Ubuntu. I compile it with no complaints and see the program name listed as an executable in the file system. However, when I am in Terminal and type the program name I get the "bash: program_name: command not found" error. If I double click on the icon in the file manager, nothing happens. Ideas?

How are you calling this program from the command line? Do you use the "./" prefix or do you use the complete path "/home/whoever/programname"?
