Finding Problem

[Arindam]

Hi,

While I am compiling Samples\install.prg, getting the following three errors :

Creating library install.lib and object install.exp
FiveHCM.lib(LZEXPAND.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _LZClose@4

FiveHCM.lib(LZEXPAND.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _LZCopy@8
FiveHCM.lib(LZEXPAND.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _LZOpenFil
eA@12
install.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 3 unresolved externals

If I mark all the lines LZCopyFile(.....), then compiling smoothly.

What could be the reason and how can I solve this ?

Arindam,

You have to link c:\bcc55\lib\PSDK\lz32.lib too

Dear Mr. Antonio,

After linking lz32.lib, the result is as follows :

install.c
d:\borland\bcc55\lib\psdk\lz32.lib : warning LNK4033: converting object format f
rom OMF to COFF
rtl.lib(math.obj) : warning LNK4006: __matherr already defined in LIBC.lib(mathe
rr.obj); second definition ignored

Arindam,

Are you using Microsoft C ?

[Arindam]

Mr Antonio,

I am using Microsoft Visual C++.

Arindam,

Then you should use Microsoft LZ32.lib and not Borland's one.

Mr. Antonio

Thanks...........................

May be a small tip but has great utility. I am expecting more and more tips, which are not available in manual but play an importent role.
