Undefined link to `_GetAdaptersAddresses @ 20 '- but I included -liphlpapi

I use gccunder cygwinto write code that calls GetAdaptersAddressesfrom iphlpapi.hin my code that I installed _WIN32_WINNTabove the required one 0x0501and on the linker line I’ve added -liphlpapi, but the linker still does not work with the following message:

gcc -liphlpapi build/obj/*.o -Wall -Wextra -o build/bin/asdf.exe src/asdf.cpp
/tmp/ccdjLPVY.o:asdf.cpp:(.text+0x153): undefined reference to `_GetAdaptersAddresses@20'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Some snippets from asdf.cpp:

#if _WIN32_WINNT < 0x0501
  #warning _WIN32_WINNT was set lower than 0x0501, fixing
  #undef _WIN32_WINNT
  #define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0501
#endif
#include <winsock2.h>
#include <iphlpapi.h>

I know that they darn there:

strings /usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/lib/libiphlpapi.a  | sort | uniq | grep GetAdapters
__imp__GetAdaptersAddresses@20
__imp__GetAdaptersInfo@8
_GetAdaptersAddresses@20
_GetAdaptersInfo@8
GetAdaptersAddresses
GetAdaptersInfo

$strings /usr/lib/w32api/libiphlpapi.a  | sort | uniq | grep GetAdapters
__imp__GetAdaptersAddresses@20
__imp__GetAdaptersInfo@8
_GetAdaptersAddresses@20
_GetAdaptersInfo@8
GetAdaptersAddresses
GetAdaptersInfo

Does anyone see what I missed?

Edit: Answer

# Change the order, put the linker options last:
# Before:
gcc -liphlpapi build/obj/*.o -Wall -Wextra -o build/bin/asdf.exe src/asdf.cpp
# After:
gcc            build/obj/*.o -Wall -Wextra -o build/bin/asdf.exe src/asdf.cpp -liphlpapi

As explained in this question , the order of the gcc arguments matters. You need to move the inclusion of the library after objects that depend on it.
