I'm trying to set up sound in my Ogre3D project. I have installed irrKlang 1.4.0 and added it's include and lib directories to my projects VC++ Include and Library directories, but I'm still getting a Linker error when I attempt to build. Any suggestions?
(Error 4007 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol
"__declspec(dllimport) class irrklang::ISoundEngine * __cdecl
irrklang::createIrrKlangDevice(enum
irrklang::E_SOUND_OUTPUT_DRIVER,int,char const *,char const *)"

referenced in function "public: __thiscall
SoundManager::SoundManager(void)" (??0SoundManager##QAE#XZ)
Okay, after looking at this for awhile it seems I was making two mistakes.
The lib directory for irrKlang is divided in two, so instead of adding (IRRKLANGDIRECTORY)\lib to my library directories, I should have been using (IRRKLANGDIRECTORY)\lib\Win32-visualStudio.
Including the lib directory wasn't sufficient, I also needed to specify the use of the irrklang library file at the top of my class (#pragma comment(lib, "irrklang.lib")).

I had boost compiled & working on my Visual Studio 2022 project. After the PC was upgraded and the OS changed to Windows 11 I attempted to re-build boost and use it with the same project. Now I get linker errors, and it seems like I have tried every suggested fix posted online. Somehow it seems like the lib files are not being found, even though I have confirmed the include and lib directories are included properly, and have tried rebuilding boost with many different configurations.
The boost build produces libboost_*.lib files, for example
libboost_log_setup-vc143-mt-gd-x32-1_78.lib
libboost_log_setup-vc143-mt-x32-1_78.lib
libboost_log-vc143-mt-gd-x32-1_78.lib
libboost_log-vc143-mt-x32-1_78.lib
Here are my boost build options
x86
b2 -j 16 --stagedir=stage/Win32 threading=multi --toolset=msvc-14.3
link=static runtime-link=shared --build-type=complete architecture=x86
address-model=32
x64
b2 -j 16 --stagedir=stage/x64 threading=multi --toolset=msvc-14.3
link=static runtime-link=shared --build-type=complete architecture=x64
--address-model=64
And my Visual Studio properties
C/C++->General->Additional Include Directories
C:\Program Files\Code Libraries\boost\boost_1_78_0
Linker->General->Additional Library Directories
C:\Program Files\Code
Libraries\boost\boost_1_78_0\stage$(Platform)\lib
And here's an example of the errors

Edit: I also wanted to mention my preprocessor variables for Debug/Win32
WIN32
_DEBUG
_CONSOLE WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
_WIN32_WINNT=0x0A00
I haven't been able to find a _WIN32_WINNT value for Windows 11, and I thought maybe that could be the problem. But I'm not entirely sure that matters.
The problem is that Boost, and Boost.Log in particular, was built for a different Windows version. You need to either:
Build Boost with _WIN32_WINNT defined to the same version as you define when you build your code.
Define BOOST_USE_WINAPI_VERSION when building your code to the Windows version Boost should target, which would be lower than your _WIN32_WINNT. Also define _WIN32_WINNT or BOOST_USE_WINAPI_VERSION macro to that version when building Boost.
To define the macro when building Boost add define=macro=value to the b2 command line. For example, define=_WIN32_WINNT=0x0A00.
I am using mfc class CImageList in my project and using its APIs like Add(), Create() etc. It works fine with vs2010.
Now, I am upgrading the project to vs2012. It compiles and links fine for 32 bit platform, however throws below linking errors for 64 bit.
File1.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol imp_ImageList_ReplaceIcon referenced in function "public: int __cdecl CImageList::Add(struct HICON *)"
File2.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_ImageList_AddMasked referenced in function "public: int __cdecl CImageList::Add(class CBitmap *,unsigned long)"
Similarly, below error is thrown for calling CBitmap api.
File2.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_CreateMappedBitmap referenced in function "public: int __cdecl CBitmap::LoadMappedBitmap(unsigned int,unsigned int,struct _COLORMAP *,int)"
It seems that the libraries having these implementations might have been changed. However, I could not find any clue on how to resolve them.
Finally figured out the reason for this error.
ImageList_ReplaceIcon & CreateMappedBitmap symbols are present in comctl32.lib.
There was an older version comctl32.lib present in a path which was included in Additional Include Directories of my project settings.
So, instead of picking this lib from Microsoft SDK folder, the linker was picking from this directory and hence causing problems.
I am having a hard time trying to use yaml-cpp 0.3.0 on my project
I downloaded yaml, and built it like http://code.google.com/p/yaml-cpp/ said, with VS 9 2008 WIN 64. So, i got the yaml-cpp.dll and the yaml-cpp.lib
I have a c++ project on VS 2010 express, and i am trying to link the library:
I go to project properties - c/c++ general and additional include directories that have yaml-cpp header files. Then i go to linker and add path to my lib directory, then I go to linker - input and add my .lib file, then i go to VC++ Directories and add path to my lib directory in Library directories and Reference directories
Then i try to build this simple code:
std::ifstream fin("test.yaml");
YAML::Parser parser(fin);
YAML::Node doc;
while(parser.GetNextDocument(doc)) {
//do nothing yet
}
I got several linking problems, like this:
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall YAML::Node::Node(void)" (??0Node#YAML##QAE#XZ) referenced in function "public: __thiscall Parser::Parser(class std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> >)" (??0Parser##QAE#V?$basic_string#DU?$char_traits#D#std##V?$allocator#D#2##std###Z)
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall YAML::Parser::~Parser(void)" (??1Parser#YAML##QAE#XZ) referenced in function "public: __thiscall Parser::Parser(class std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> >)" (??0Parser##QAE#V?$basic_string#DU?$char_traits#D#std##V?$allocator#D#2##std###Z)
Can anyone help me? I am banging my head against a wall here.
As you said you've got a DLL from YAML, I assume you specified -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON when you built with VS2008, so you ended up with a lib for dynamic linking (to the DLL at runtime) rather than static linking (at compile time).
If the above is correct, it may be differences between VS2008 and VS2010 that are causing a problem. For example, see this post here. To quickly see if this is the cause, in your VS2010 project properties, set the Platform Toolset to V90 and see if that helps.
Also, make sure you compiled both projects for the same CPU - i.e. both for 32-bit or both for 64-bit.
I've been going at this problem for almost a week now and I still have 700+ errors. Definitely need all your help! Thanks.
Problem: Need to use
Cocos2dx for Windows Phone 8

From here, it builds successfully!
It outputs a .dll file but no .lib file, so...
In CCPlatformMacros.h, I enabled exporting classes to dll:
#define CC_DLL __declspec(dllexport)
Yah, .lib is being written to then...

Sorry for the long post, but I hope that's enough details to get this question going. Thanks.
I created a new dynamic library project, then copied over the files. I got the .dll and .lib built, but didn't work for an ARM CPU build target (used for devices). Also, the setup for the Cocos2dx director and scene layer doesn't seem to work well with an existing C#/XAML with DirectX project that renders onto a DrawingSurfaceBackgroundGrid control. So at the end, I didn't end up using Cocos2dx in my mixed project setup.
If anyone else got better suggestions, please let me know. Thanks.
ON TOPIC:
Perhaps you did not properly set project dependencies inside your SLN ?
I got Cocos2d to partially work with XAML+D3d Interop, but because calls go back and forward from the XAMLComponent DLL to the Cocos2d DLL, it seems to be messing up pointers and memory.
Right now I tried to move all Cocos2D source files to my D3Dcomponent project, but something is terribly wrong, and I get a weird kernelbase.dll first chance exception.
OFF TOPIC:
I was also trying to put a game done over cocos2d-x on an XAML+D3D Interop project, and used the template that comes with Visual Studio 2012. However, only a smudgy background was displayed. I was using DrawingSurfaceBackgroundGrid, and found out later that on Windows Phone 8, it has some issues related to Z-order. I ended up replacing it with DrawingSurface.
I have problem, I use mysql++ 3.1.0:
after building mysql++.sln in debug and release mode for vc2008, and using instal.hta then
adding dirrectoires in vc++ directories to lib and include folders,
and adding in project properties-> Linker-> General Additional Library Directories directory to lib folder which have mysqlpp.dll, mydqlpp.lib, mysqlpp_d.dll, mydqlpp_d.lib.
These code:
#include <iostream>
#include <mysql++.h>
using namespace std;
using namespace mysqlpp;
int main()
{
Connection con;
return 0;
}
gets these errors:
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) public: virtual __thiscall mysqlpp::Connection::~Connection(void)" (__imp_??1Connection#mysqlpp##UAE#XZ) referenced in function _main
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) public: __thiscall mysqlpp::Connection::Connection(bool)" (__imp_??0Connection#mysqlpp##QAE#_N#Z) referenced in function _main
in visual studio 2008. How can I fix this?
I think you missed the last step here, which adds several libraries to your project: the MySQL++ DLL import library, the MySQL C API library, and the Winsock DLL import library.
