Hello, I am currently using VC8 to compile xerces, I have added a project called Tasks to the solution with a single file containing main() called analysefile.cpp. It is my intention to mess around with xerces in this file.
I'm following the programming guide, and have got stuck at the first stage. Please take a look at the following screenshot which outlines my setup: http://www.solong.co.uk/bugs/unresolved.jpg After having copied and pasted code from the first window of http://xerces.apache.org/xerces-c/program.html I can't get my Tasks project to compile due to the following errors. Since Error 2 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) public: static void __cdecl xercesc_2_8::XMLPlatformUtils::Terminate(void)" ([EMAIL PROTECTED]@xercesc_2_8@@SAXXZ) referenced in function __catch$_main$0 analysefile.obj Tasks Error 3 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) public: static void __cdecl xercesc_2_8::XMLPlatformUtils::Initialize(char const * const,char const * const,class xercesc_2_8::PanicHandler * const,class xercesc_2_8::MemoryManager * const,bool)" ([EMAIL PROTECTED]@xercesc_2_8@@[EMAIL PROTECTED] @[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]) referenced in function _main analysefile.obj Tasks Error 4 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) public: static char const * const xercesc_2_8::XMLUni::fgXercescDefaultLocale" ([EMAIL PROTECTED]@xercesc_2_8@@2QBDB) analysefile.obj Tasks Error 5 fatal error LNK1120: 3 unresolved externals D:\workspaces\test\xerces-c-src_2_8_0\Projects\Win32\VC8\xerces-all\Debug\Tasks.exe Tasks Surely it should still compile at this stage? I'm at a loss as to how to resolve this. Any help much appreciated. It should be noted however that the following code will compile: #include <xercesc/util/PlatformUtils.hpp> // Other include files, declarations, and non-Xerces-C++ initializations. XERCES_CPP_NAMESPACE_USE int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { /* ALL THIS CODE COMMENTED OUT try { XMLPlatformUtils::Initialize(); } catch (const XMLException& toCatch) { // Do your failure processing here return 1; } // Do your actual work with Xerces-C++ here. XMLPlatformUtils::Terminate(); AND STOP HERE */ // Other terminations and cleanup. return 0; } clearly it's something to do with the mention of XMLPlatformUtils:: Kind Regards Dan
