Hi everyone, I have a question about simply getting Mathlink started. I
have installed all of the compiler additions, etc. according to the
documentation and I am trying to run the following code in C++, using
Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003:
#include mathlink.h
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
MLENV env;
MLINK link;
long errno;
env = MLInitialize(0);
link = MLOpenArgv(env, argv, argv+argc, &errno);
MLActivate(link);
...
But I get the following build errors when I try to compile:
------ Build started: Project: smoothContour, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------
Compiling...
smoothContour.cpp
Linking...
smoothContour.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol
_MLConnect@4 referenced in function _main
smoothContour.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol
_MLOpenArgv@16 referenced in function _main
smoothContour.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol
_MLInitialize@4 referenced in function _main
Debug/smoothContour.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 3 unresolved externals
Build log was saved at "file://c:\Documents and Settings\ryan\My
Documents\Visual Studio Projects\smoothContour\Debug\BuildLog.htm"
smoothContour - 4 error(s), 0 warning(s)
---------------------- Done ----------------------
Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped
I think that there is something wrong with my settings in Visual Studio.
Does anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks
