FWH 15.07 - Unresolved externals

[driessen]

Hello,

I try to use FWH 15.07 and I'm getting errors "Unresolved externals".

These externals are :
- "_GetMenuInfo"
- "_GetWindowLongPtr"
- "_SetMenuInfo"
- "_GetMenuBarInfo"

all from FiveHCM.lib (MENUDRAW.OBJ).

Can this be solved?

If I remember well, the same problem occured in FWH 15.05. A new build by Antonio solved this problem.

Thanks in advance.

Michel,

I am working to solve it

We need to detect that we are compiling with VC98 for xhb.com so I am looking for a VC98 identifier

I solved that one, but now we need to apply this again:

viewtopic.php?p=119844#p119844

I am working on it

Thanks my friend

Again we need to create a xfw.lib from a xfw.def file:

xfw.def

Code: Select all  Expand view

LIBRARY     USER32.DLL

EXPORTS
    GetMenuInfo             @1871
    GetWindowLongPtr    @1968
    SetMenuInfo              @2291
    GetMenuBarInfo        @1867
 

And finally:
lib.exe /def:xfw.def /out:xfw.lib

lib.exe is the Microsoft library manager, we used the lib.exe that comes with VC98

I am going to build it...

I'm getting the same error with 15.08. I used the .lib you built with xHarbour (.com ) and that worked. However, my builds with Harbour / MSVC will not work. Trying to open a dialog makes the .exe stop working.

Was their another file we need to link in with the Harbour/MSVC builds ?

[Antonio Linares]

Tim,

There is no need to link an extra lib for MSVC.

Could you provide an example ? thanks

[TimStone]

Antonio,

I can't bring it down to a small sample.

Program built using Harbour, MSVC 2013, and FWH 15.06 works fine.
Exact same program, and build, using FWH 15.08, will build, and execute the main screen. However, once I try to display a dialog with GET fields, the program "stops working" ... a windows error.

Build it with xHarbour.com and the extra file, and it works.

By deduction, source code is OK, but the additional items must be requiring a Microsoft .lib that is not being linked in !

Tim,

We are doing some more work with FWH 15.08 as we are implementing full unicode support.

So I suggest you to wait until we release a new revised build, thanks

[TimStone]

Based on your comment elsewhere, would that be 15.09 ?

[Antonio Linares]

Tim,

Yes, surely
