You need to make sure that you are linking to the (or, maybe, the
proper) libaray. Type "set" in your dos prompt and check the
corresponding path which define where linker goes to find your lib
etc. I believe the VC++ can show you somewhere of the enviornment
set. You can get clues by examing the difference too.

Thanks for the response Vio,
Actually I'm not familiar with the method you've proposed. but
I tried to compile the program from command line and It
failed! I can't understand why its compiling by using GUI but
not from the command prompt. I'm so new to this and this
project is really very important to me. Any one PLEASE help me.
Thank you.

MingwStudio? If old
old VC++6 fails to do what you want, both free IDE
alternatives), but
whatever, doesn't VC generate some kind of Makefile
between the
curtains? Maybe you could create what's missing by hand?
A Makefile looks something like this:
---------------------------------------
#
# File: Makefile for samples
# Author: Robert Roebling
# Created: 1999
# Updated:
# Copyright: (c) 1998 Robert Roebling
#
# This makefile requires a Unix version of wxWindows
# to be installed on your system. This is most often
# done typing "make install" when using the complete
# sources of wxWindows or by installing the two
# RPM packages wxGTK.XXX.rpm and wxGTK-devel.XXX.rpm
# under Linux.
#
CXX = $(shell wx-config --cxx)
PROGRAM = MyApp
OBJECTS = $(PROGRAM).o MySSL.o MyFrame.o MyCustom.o
MYFLAGS = -I/d/ssl/run/include -I./ssl
MYLIBS = -L/d/ssl/run/lib -lssl -lcrypto
.SUFFIXES: .o .cpp .c
.cpp.o :
$(CXX) -g -c `wx-config --cxxflags` $(MYFLAGS) \
-Wall -pthread -o $@ $<
.c.o :
gcc -g -c $(MYFLAGS) -Wall -pthread -o $@ $<
all: $(PROGRAM)
$(PROGRAM): $(OBJECTS)
$(CXX) -g -o $(PROGRAM) $(OBJECTS) `wx-config --libs` \
$(MYLIBS) -Wall -pthread
clean:
rm -f *.o $(PROGRAM)
---------------------------------------
What it does is that it generates compiling and linking
commands,
for instance the previous Makefile generates the following:
g++ -g -c `wx-config --cxxflags` -I/d/ssl/run/include
-I./ssl -Wall
-pthread -o MyFrame.o MyFrame.cpp
g++ -g -o MyApp MyApp.o MySSL.o MyFrame.o MyCustom.o
`wx-config --libs`
-L/d/ssl/run/lib -lssl -lcrypto -Wall -pthread
First one is a compile command, second is a linking command.
So you need the second one.
Hope this helps somewhat,
Vio
