cef project compile link error2001 - c++

I have downloaded the cef_binary_3.2840.1493.g4e029f4_windows32 to start my project with CEF.After I use cmake to build VS project,I use the VS2015 to compile the cef project(cef_simple),But it seems have some link error like this:
void __cdecl base::allocator::InsertAllocatorDispatch(struct base::allocator::AllocatorDispatch *)" (?InsertAllocatorDispatch#allocator#base##YAXPAUAllocatorDispatch#12##Z) cefsimple D:\cef\cefsimple\cef_sandbox.lib(malloc_dump_provider.obj)
And it make me confused because others can compile and run it successfully(his system is WIN10 64 with VS2013),so anybody can give me answer?
PS:my system is WIN7 64

workaround:
delete the string ../../debug/cef_sandbox.lib. (in project settings->Linker->input->AdditionalDependencies)
and also need delete in Defines: CEF_USE_SANDBOX
P.S. This problem described in 'https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/cef/wiki/Tutorial' and in comments of cefsimple_win.cc file. Reason of this error: cef_sandbox.lib linked in VS2013 and in new version VS it doesn't link. Another solution would be to use:
-DUSE_SANDBOX=OFF when running Cmake

C++ Error RC2104 trying to compile PuTTY-PSCP (for Windows) on Visual Studio 6.0

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.

'TypeInfo<char>(char *)' isn't defined but worked pre-C++11; what changed, and how can I fix the error?

I am trying to build a DLL from source-code from the Crysis Wars SDK, and have successfully done so in the past on previous versions of Visual Studio (namely 2005, 2008, and 2010).
My specific problem is this:
Error 4 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "struct CTypeInfo const & __cdecl
TypeInfo<char>(char *)" (??$TypeInfo#D##YAABUCTypeInfo##PAD#Z) referenced in function
"void __cdecl SwapEndian<char>(char *,unsigned int)" (??$SwapEndian#D##YAXPADI#Z)
G:\Noctis\Mods\Noctis\Code\GameCVars.obj GameDll
I have attempted to clean the code in Visual Studio and rebuild it on the off-chance this'll work, but this has not changed anything.
Am I missing something here, or has something changed from C++03 to C++11 that means that this code is no longer compilable without reverting to an older version of C++?
I have successfully compiled this code on Visual Studio 2010 in both 64 bit and 32 bit, so it must be some issue related to migrating the project to Visual Studio 2015.
Compilation on 2012, 2013, and 2015 versions of Visual Studio reproduce this error but not 2010, so it seems that the change to trigger this problem was introduced in C++11.
What am I doing wrong?
Reading the answer to mem-fun is not a member of std, it could just be that I need to include a standard library that I didn't need to include in earlier versions of Visual Studio.
If this is true, which library would I need to #include?
I have also created a GitHub repository containing only the original unmodified code provided from the SDK, for testing purposes (in the event I myself made a typo, which doesn't seem to be the case here but I've put the link here as it may be helpful).
If it matters, I'm using Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise edition on Windows 10 Professional x64.
What does the error mean?
The error message hints towards a classic "declared but not defined" scenario.
TypeInfo<char>(char*) is declared in TypeInfo.h (through some macros) and declared in AutoTypeInfo.cpp in project CryCommon.
Usually you would just make sure the CryCommon project is built correctly and linked into your final GameDll project properly and that's it.
But it turns out here that the CryCommon project has not been built for a long time - it references many other Crytek libraries etc. So the problem must be that something now needs these TypeInfo<> definitions and previously it did not.
What is referencing the TypeInfo<> code?
In your project it's function CmdHelp() in Aurora/Code/GameCVars.cpp, precisely this line:
nRead = gEnv->pCryPak->FRead( buf, BUFSZ, f );
The implementation of the FRead() method is in CryCommon/ICryPak.h:
template<class T>
size_t FRead(T *data, size_t elems, FILE *handle, bool bSwap = true)
{
size_t count = FReadRaw(data, sizeof(T), elems, handle);
if (bSwap)
SwapEndian(data, count);
return count;
}
As you can see, if bSwap is true (the default), SwapEndian() is invoked there.
Why hasn't this manifested before?
Perhaps the compiler was indeed behaving differently.
Or, more likely, you have been always compiling the project as Release before. The whole byte-swapping functionality is enabled only on big-endian systems (and your target is most probably not one of those) or during debug - then the bytes are actually swapped twice to test the related code (see CryCommon/Endian.h).
What can be done to fix it?
You have several options now:
Keep compiling as release only (probably as before). Perhaps you will never be debugging the code in a debugger anyway.
Just comment the swap call in FRead() code out. You are using it to load a text file anyway, no point in swapping the characters around.
...
FWIW, other things I had to do to make your code compile:
Check out the earlier commit before "Broken"
Load Mods\Aurora\Code\Aurora.sln
Remove non-existing .vcprojx projects
Add all 3 .vcproj files again, let them be converted to VS2015 ones
For GameDll project, add preprocessor definition _SILENCE_STDEXT_HASH_DEPRECATION_WARNING
For GameDll project, set enabled C++ exception handling /EHsc

How to use 'boost_python-vc110-mt-gd-1_54.lib' in C++?

I am trying to use BoostPython to write a program in C++.
My presettings are:
a. Win32 Console Application.
b. Property->C/C++->General->Additional Include Directories->C:\Python27\include;C:\Program Files\boost\boost_1_54_0;
c. Property->Linker->General->Additional Library Directions->C:\Python27\libs;
d. Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Express Version + Python 27 + Boost 1.54
And my code is like follows:
#include <boost/python.hpp>
using namespace boost::python;
int main( int argc, char ** argv )
{
return 0;
}
As you can see, this code is with an empty main function. And I got an error message
error LNK1104: cannot open file 'boost_python-vc110-mt-gd-1_54.lib'
I checked the installation of boost ('bootstrap.bat'+'bjam.exe'), and I've searched within the folder where boost library installed for 'boost_python-vc110-mt-gd-1_54.lib', but found nothing.
I looked for some similar posts, unlike my problem, the lib file they missed was with a prefix 'lib'. On the other hand, I found this post is very similar to mine. But I found the OP made a mistake when he/her solve his/hers problem. That is, Boost is compatible with python 2.2 and its newer versions. And the rest of his answer is not helpful to me.
I guess this problem could because either I've done something wrong during installation, or I was wrong when I link the libs to my application.
Can anyone help me out of this? A detailed solution will be great. Many thanks. :)
==============================================================
EDIT:
I've reinstalled the Boost with a prebuilt binary file. Now I can link to the lib file the compiler asked for. However, new problems are raised. Now I have two new errors:
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp___Py_NoneStruct
error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
When I comment out the line #include <boost/python.hpp>, the above errors are gone.
I really cannot figure out the reason. Can anyone help me with this? Many thanks.
You've added the C:\Python27\libs folder to you linker settings, but that doesn't have the boost files.
You need to run boost's bjam to generate the boost library files. Lots of boost is header only, but there are some libraries which you will need to build.
When you have done that you need to add the directory to
"Property->Linker->General->Additional Library Directories"
I've found out the error is raised because the Boost library was not properly installed in my computer. Actually, the key is bjam, and it must be run to build all these necessary libraries.
I would suggest anyone else that encounter with this problem, if you don't know how to run a bjam properly, go to search for a prebuilt binary file of Boost. That could save you a lot of time.

Can not find mpirxx.h after building the mpir-2.6.0 library in vc++

I need to use mpir-2.6.0 library with visual c++ 2010. My code is going to be in c++.
I extracted both folders (mpir-2.6.0 and vsyasm-1.2.0-win32). Then, I copied the content of the folder vsyasm-1.2.0-win32 (including vsyasm.exe after renaming it to yasm.exe and placing it in: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\bin\. Then, I opened the project: mpir.sln which is placed in: \mpir-2.6.0\build.vc10. Then, I changed the Project configuration to: Release.
When I try to build the whole solution, I get a lot of errors such as:
error C1020: unexpected #endif c:\proj\mpir-2.6.0\mpir-2.6.0\mpir.h 4 1 lib_mpir_gc
error C1020: unexpected #endif c:\proj\mpir-2.6.0\mpir-2.6.0\mpir.h 4 1 lib_mpir_gc
error C1020: unexpected #endif c:\proj\mpir-2.6.0\mpir-2.6.0\mpir.h 4 1 lib_mpir_gc
But when I build every library separately, it is successful.
After the build, I went to: \mpir-2.6.0\build.vc10\Win32\Release
and find the files:
mpir.lib
mpirxx.lib
mpir.pdb
mpirxx.pdb
But I can not find the files:
mpir.h
mpirxx.h
Which I need to copy them the visual studio include file.
My main source for these configuration is: http://www.exploringbinary.com/how-to-install-and-run-gmp-on-windows-using-mpir/ (but this was for old versions for the library and the ysam). I do not understand the reasons for these errors. I was able to configure the library with old version. But I need to upgrade as there are improvements in the library and mine is very old one.
The output files are now located in mpir\lib\Win32\Release or mpir\dll\Win32\Release.
The recommended way to build MPIR specifcally for your CPU is to first run mpir_config.py which is located in the build.vc10 directory. mpir_config.py will prompt you with a list of CPU options. Then when you open mpir.sln, you should only compile code for the specific CPU. And then you compile the C++ wrapper (i.e. compile lib_mpir_p3 first, and then lib_mpir_cxx).
Edit: I just noticed another error from your original post. You need to rename the directory "mpir-2.6.0" to "mpir". The directory layout needs to be "<>\mpir\build.vc10"
I had the same problem with MPIR 2.6.0 and VS 2012. What I did to make MPIR work was to build lib_gc and lib_cxx, both with win32 and release mode. Because my c++ application is win32 console, this way it worked perfectly.
Becuase my windows is 64, I thought I had to build 64 versions, but turned out that I was wrong.

Smart pointer: runtime crash in VS 9 running WinXP-Sp3

I am getting run time crash in the following piece of code and not able to debug also. Please review and let me know what's going on.
// CppConsole.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
//#include "stdafx.h"#include <iostream>#include <assert.h>
class Test : public std::tr1::enable_shared_from_this<Test>
{
public:
Test():x(0),y(0),z(0){};
int x;
float y;
double z;
};
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
std::tr1::shared_ptr<Test> t1(new Test);
std::tr1::shared_ptr<Test> t2 = t1->shared_from_this();
return 0;
}
I have include all the headers and the program is compiling fine. This is the error i am getting:
CppConsole.exe - Entry Point Not Found The procedure entry point
?_Xweak#tr1#std##YAXXZ could not be located in the dynamic link
library MSVCP90D.dll
If I comment out this line
std::tr1::shared_ptr t2 = t1->shared_from_this();
the program runs without crashing.
Update: Question can be closed for now. I will try to install VS feature pack and see weather the program executes without any crashes.
Googled it (The procedure entry point ?_Xweak),found this : http://blog.nilretain.org/
EDIT : I Build and Run it successfully on my msvc 2008 on xp-sp3 ,which has later version of msvcp90d.dll.
Maybe you can download and install the latest redist-version of msvc90 and rebuild.
EDIT: your dependencies says something is missing. check this out :
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090623140325AAInugo
You need a template argument:
std::tr1::shared_ptr<Test> t1(new Test);
std::tr1::shared_ptr<Test> t2 = t1->shared_from_this();
The compiler should report an error if it is not present. (Visual C++ 2010 does)
It appears that your compiler is not linking against a DLL with the needed runtime functions. For instance, if you added the headers to your include path, but don't link to the latest version of the C++ runtime (check your project's settings), or installing the Visual C++ 2008 feature pack didn't work, or you installed the feature pack but then tried to compile from Visual Studio 2005, etc.
Basically the "process the source code (including headers)" step is working fine, but the "link all the DLLs" step is failing. And it's failing because the runtime you're linking against doesn't have the needed functions for shared_ptrs or weak_ptrs.
I had this problem when developing under M$ Windows SP3 with M$ Visual Studio 2008. I tried and combined many hints that I could find on the web. To no avail. The solution was simple, I had to install SP1 pack for M$ Visual Studio 2008!
The thing is that my external DLLs used C++ TR1 functions that I was not aware of. The M$ Visual Studio 2008 without SP does not have the right runtime DLLs.
So, just make sure you have that SP1 for your M$ Visual Studio 2008 first before trying any other solution.
