static libraries

[munteanu24d]

Hi !
I have build a static library using this tutorial : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...27(VS.80).aspx .

The problem I have is that i cannot use its functions inside of the test application - MyExecRefLib .

I am using Visual Studio 6.0 .
Inside MyExecRefLib , i included a folder with the following structure: MyExecRefLib/dumi/lib/MathFuncsLib.lib and MyExecRefLib/dumi/include/MathFuncsLib.h

Also, in the test application - MyExecRefLib, i tried to modify the include directories paths as follows : [BR]
Project->Setting->C/C++ - project Options : i added : /I "dumi"
Project->Settings->Link - project Options : i added /libpath:"dumi\lib"

After this , i am getting the following error :

fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'MathFuncsLib.h': No such file or directory
Error executing cl.exe.


If i change : /I "dumi" with
with /I "dumi\include" at Project->Setting->C/C++ - project Options , the error changes to :

error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: static double __cdecl MathFuncs::MyMathFuncs:ivide(double,double)" (?Divide@MyMathFuncs@MathFuncs@@SANNN@Z)

.

I have seen on other forums that this is a common problem for many people, but i didn't find yet a proper solution.

Looks like you fixed the compile error, and just haven't figured out linking yet.

I don't know the Visual Studio command-line options, but did you specify your library as an input to the linker in your project options?

Project Options -> Link -> Object/library modules:
Add "MathFuncsLib.lib" to the list.

I have added the library to the linker liberies and modules , but now I get the following error :

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "MyMathLib.lib"
Error executing link.exe.

OK , I added My MathFuncsLib.lib , and now it works !

Thanks a lot !
