I use Cygwin with g++ for compiling my source codes and on some codes I
get the error:

That means the linking is being done for a GUI application. I guess you
wanted to build a console application, so you should learn what these
options for the linker mean:
-Wl,-subsystem,console
-Wl,-subsystem,windows
There are equivalent options used with the compiler g++, I think they are:
-mconsole
-mwindows
Yes I would build a console application (or a shared library, I can
build the library).
I have tried both commands -mconsole and -Wl,-subsystem,console but the error
is created again. Should I rebuild my libraries with the -mconsole
option, at the time
I have build them only with configure, make, make install?
Thanks
