Ncurses & curses - undefined link compiler

Good, so I initially tried to use some headers, which supposedly were only for windows, but this is bad, but I went and only reproduced what I needed using curses.h. However, I still get the same error.

So, I'm not 100% sure that the code should work as I expect. I'm just trying to compile this to test it. According to curses.h documentation, getch should return an ERR value if no keys are queued. I really don’t know what else is required here, I thought that all I have to do is include the heading in which the definitions were. This does not seem to be enough, but something must be missed. Here is a short test I'm trying to compile

#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <curses.h>
#include <ncurses.h>

using namespace std;

bool kbhit()
{
  int ch = getch();
  if(ch != ERR)
  {
    ungetch(ch);
    return true;
  }
  return false;

}

int main() {

  while(!kbhit())
  {
    cout << "no input";
  }
  cout << "Mummy, it over.";
  return 0;
}
