I was working on a tutorial project I found on another website where it explains how to use Java inside a C++ project (this is just for context, isn't the important part). The project was working as it should. After that I wanted to copy the code to another project, but this time it was of Makefile config type. First I ran nmake command thinking that it might tell me where the file is, but I got an error instead: NMAKE : fatal error U1064: MAKEFILE not found and no target specified, which I thought that there isn't one, and I have to make it. So I made a file and named it Makefile and inside I added only one line JNILIB=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_333\lib\jvm.lib that I thought I need. After that I ran nmake again, only this time I got back:
Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 14.29.30141.0
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
But the problem still persists and that is Error LNK2019 unresolved external symbol. This means I'm doing something wrong, but to be honest I don't know how to use Makefile which clearly shows (maybe I need to add more to the file, or what I wrote is wrong).
Can anyone help me get past this error? That is the only problem I have, how to tell it that I'm using that library from that location.
I am not familiar with using nmake. Below is a test I did, putting the DLL in the same directory as cpp.
makefile:
foo: main.cpp
cl main.cpp TestDll.lib

Now I’m trying to build CMAKE but I can’t.
When I typed ./configure soon an error happened. .

I also find error messages in Bootstrap.cmk/cmake_bootstrap.log like bellow.

They said cwchar and iostream.h doesn't exist, although I have them and set their path to environmental variable.
The first massage said my C++ compiler isn’t appropriate. I installed it by mingw-get.exe.
Does anyone know, how can I get appropriate C++ compiler?
You mixed two compilers. I recommend: delete your old one and install msys2+mingw64.
I was about to use PuTTY Development source code for Windows to create my own client application (found here: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html) but as I tried to compile the PSCP project (SCP Client), I got the following error :
C:\work\2015\Putty\windows\version.rc2 (18): error RC2104 : undefined
keyword or key name: BINARY_VERSION
I've been going through the various posts involving this error but didn't find anything working :
error RC2104: undefined keyword or key name: DS_SETFONT :
On this post I noticed that the version of MSVC was brought up so I figured maybe something has to be done to get PuTTY to work on VC 6.0 ?
Also I tried to add #include <windows.h> in both version.rc2 (version.rc2 is used for inclusion in all .rc files) and pscp.rc, none worked.
I'll be quick to answer if you need any information (project properties, source code...)
USING Visual Studio 6.0 with SP6 on Windows 8.1
Probably, wrong version.h is seen.
Correctly, the file version.h in the project folder should be seen.
Please try to modify version.rc2:
#include "version.h"
to
#include "..\\..\\..\\version.h"
At least, resource compiler will end successfully.
If you search through the PuTTY source files, you'll notice that BINARY_VERSION is defined in version.h and used in windows/version.rc2, which #includes version.h.
Since your version.rc2 isn't seeing version.h, try to figure out why: Is version.h still present and does it still contain BINARY_VERSION? Are your include paths correct? Is there another version.h somewhere else in your include path that's getting picked up by mistake?
Which source code are you using ?
I tested latest(0.64) "Release source code for Windows".
direct link is
http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest/putty-src.zip
I had tried to compile using VC++ 6.0 Professional with SP6, on my PC,
running Windows XP SP3.
After extracting putty-src.zip to somewhere with keeping folder
structures, did you correctly opened 'putty.dsw' in "putty-src\windows\MSVC" folder?
You should be find in 7 projects in 'FileView' tab of the workspace
in Visual Studio 6.0.
You can switch active project to 'pscp' with context menu via
right button click on 'pscp' project.
With modified version.rc2, resource compiler finished successful.
But two (sshshare.c, winsftp.c) C source files failed compiling
with 20 errors. in 'pscp' project.
Errors while compiling 'winsftp.c' is caused 'TIME_POSIX_TO_WIN'
and 'TIME_WIN_TO_POSIX' macros.
'ull(unsigned long long)' is a 64-bit integer-suffix, newly defined in C99. Since C99 standard is not support on VC6, then caused errors.
I had temporally modified
11644473600ull ------> ((ULONGLONG)11644473600)
10000000ull ---------> ((ULONGLONG)10000000)
and confirmed errors are cleared. (Sorry, no validation the code is correctly generated)
3 errors while compiling 'sshshare.c' is also caused another macro.
I cannot understand why you got 116 errors.
I have already installed boost library v1.57.0 (x64) via the binary file, which works properly under my VS2010Pro.
However, when I tried to compile the latest version (v1.5) of QuantLib, by opening QuantLib_vc10.sln file, for both 'Debug' and 'Release' under 'x64' in VS2010, I got something like:
QuantLib.vcxproj -> ...\QuantLib-1.5.\lib\QuantLib--x64-mt.lib
in the 1st project, then 18 failed build with the error:
LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'QuantLib-vc100-x64-mt.lib'
It is clear that the fatal error is due to the incapability of naming library with 'vc100' in the 1st project. But I don't know how to fix the problem.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
The version tag should be taken care of in the QuantLib.props file, which in imported in the project. From searching a bit, though, it looks like the VisualStudioVersion property (which we're relying on) might not be defined in VS10. Try editing QuantLib.props, and adding
<PropertyGroup>
<VisualStudioVersion Condition="'$(VisualStudioVersion)' == ''">10.0</VisualStudioVersion>
</PropertyGroup>
before the other two PropertyGroups, and relinking the library (and please, let me know if this works so I can patch the file in the next release).
I have a c++ project in MSVS 2010 Express. I have been planning to write several unit tests to validate this project. Right now they go along the following lines:
#include "header.h" //Header is the header for the source I want to test
void testSomeFunction()
{
//Call function (from external src, prototype in header.h)
//Save output to file
}
int main()
{
testSomeFunction();
return 0;
}
I am creating these source files outside my project because I want to be able to run each of them as individual executable, but I am having trouble getting the Microsoft linker to link them.
This is my problem so far (CMD output):
cl ut_Converter.cpp Converter.obj
ut_Converter.cpp
c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\INCLUDE\xlocale(323) : warning C4530: C++ exception handler used, but unwind semantics are not enabled. Specify /EHsc

I never really use Microsoft products, I'm familiar with using the GNU tools GCC and make but I have to use the Microsoft tools for this and I have no idea how they work.
Maybe I'm going about building these tests the stupid way but it's the best way I can think of right now.
This is what I want to do:
Compile the source files in my project into object files
Compile my test files into object files
Link the test object file with the appropriate project object files to produce the test executable
How do I go about doing that? (I'm guessing there are some settings I need to set to make everything compatible but I have no idea what they are or how I would go about setting them)
Extra: I know it mentions the debug level but I'd be willing to bet that there will be other incompatible settings. Is there a way to find out what the settings are in the program so I can pass them to cl.exe when I run it?
Edit: When I say command prompt I do mean the one that comes with Visual Studio with all the environment variables setup.
Have you tried going to Programs / Microsoft Visual ... / ... Tools / ... Command Prompt, and running from that dos console window which has the environment variables setup?
I've been using CodeBlocks for a while now as I make a little hobby game in C++. Come across a snag whereby I want to see the current values of all the data in my arrays at any point, CodeBlocks doesn't seem to have that ability. Have been told by workmates (professional game programmers) that I should use Visual Studio.
Have previously used Visual Studio C# in the past, was very handy being able to use a break point while debugging other small games I've made and then going through the big list of watches to look at particular array values or any other value from within my program at that time.
So I've created a new blank project in VC2010 and added all my code files to the project. I know I have to link libraries and such, have spent the last few hours trying to figure out how to do that. But even after all that is done, I'm still getting link errors (I think)
First problem is this:
fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'gl\glext.h': No such file or directory
So I commented it out to see how much further I could get.
Eventually had to add to my main.cpp file
#pragma comment (lib, "opengl32.lib")
#pragma comment (lib, "glu32.lib")
#pragma comment (lib, "libsoil.lib")
I ended up copying the libsoil.a file to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\lib and renaming it to libsoil.lib (as stated on the authors's website http://www.lonesock.net/soil.html)
So now I get this when I compile
1>libsoil.lib(stb_image_aug.o) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol ___chkstk referenced in function _stbi_zlib_decode_noheader_buffer
1>libsoil.lib(image_helper.o) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _sqrtf referenced in function _RGBE_to_RGBdivA2
1>C:\Repositories\HappyHelperPuppy\CppVer\HappyHelperPuppy\Debug\HappyHelperPuppy.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals
..And I have no idea what to do next. I've spent ages in Google and trawling through forums and I really just don't know what to do.
So as a last ditch effort I'm zipping up all my code and project files and letting anyone whos interested to have a look and see if they can find a solution. It's not like this game will have any secret feature I want to keep under wraps, and all the art is from an open game competition from ages ago ("TIGSource Assembly" for those who know what it is) or from DeviantArt (just wanted something to look at while I made it, wouldn't be final game release art)
The code/game can be found here http://users.on.net/~infernoraven/hhp_busted_code.zip (27mb)
The SOIL library should be in the main directory in its own soil.zip
Any help would be good, but I'm just getting really depressed as I seem to spend most of my time either fighting with the IDE/Compilers or some annoying syntax problem.
The CodeBlocks project files should be in there also, so if you..
un-comment out glext.h
link to SOIL
link to libopengl32 and libglu32
Hopefully it'll compile for you. Otherwise there should be an HappyHelperPuppy.exe that's precompiled by CodeBlocks that should hopefully run and give you an idea of what is suppose to happen
In the SOIL package there are a number of project files for visual studio. When I try to load up the VC9 one and convert it to VC10, I get conversion errors.
Conversion Report - SOIL.vcproj:
Converting project file 'C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\Downloads\soil\Simple OpenGL Image Library\projects\VC9\SOIL.vcproj'.
Failed to upgrade platform 'x64'. Please make sure you have it installed under '%vctargetspath%\platforms\x64'
VCWebServiceProxyGeneratorTool is no longer supported. The tool has been removed from your project settings.
Attribute 'Detect64BitPortabilityProblems' of 'VCCLCompilerTool' is not supported in this version and has been removed during conversion.

Failed to upgrade 'Debug|x64'. Please make sure you have the corresponding platform installed under '%vctargetspath%\platforms\x64'
The project configuration dimension name/value "(Platform, Win32)" was not found in the project manifest.
Project upgrade failed.
If I use the VC8 project file and try to upgrade that, a libSOIL.lib file is generated by VC2010 throws an error saying "Unable to start program ... \SOIL.lib The specified file is an unrecognized or unsupported binary format"
But the author on his site states that I can simply rename the libSOIL.a file to a libSOIL.lib file and it should work.
The soil.zip file contains some .sln files under the folder projects. Use the proper .sln file to build the library, then link your project against this library. It worked fine on my side.
