But I don't understand what he means with "on linking?"

Building an executable is done in two steps.

Compiling takes your source code and converts it into low level instructions for the computer. Those are your object .obj files.

The linker takes your .obj and library files and converts them into the executable file.

Your program may compile but not link.

Ahh..

Would this "link" my program?:

I use Microsoft Visual Studio 2008: Express Editon.

And I use cl -EHsc srcds_beta.cpp for compiling.

Output:

srcds_beta.exe
srcds_beta.obj
