Answer to VC linking problem

[Marco Pinter]

I originally found out about this group when searching the Web for answers 
on Crypto++ problems I was having.  I had run across Brian Smith's posting 
about a link error he was getting, which was the same problem I was 
having.  There were several replies that did not address the real 
problem.  I have the solution below.  I'd like to get it on that thread, so 
that others who run across it on the Web (like me) will see the real 
solution, but I'm not sure how.

Anyway, here was the original problem:
------------------------------------------
I get many many unresolved external symbols such as this:
Linking...
cryptlibd.lib(iterhash.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol 
"__declspec(dllimport) public: __thiscall std::basic_string<char,struct 
std::char_traits<char>,class 
std::allocator<char> >::~basic_string<char,struct 
std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> >(void)" ([EMAIL 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] PROTECTED]@@[EMAIL [EMAIL PROTECTED]@@std@@[EMAIL PROTECTED])
----------------------------------------------

And here is the solution:
------------------------------------------
Simply switch your project from "Dynamically Linked to MFC library" to 
"Statically linked to MFC library"
and the problem goes away.
