Hallo, for Win32GUI Lib I need to link shlwapi.lib. Since the library is built with bjam I tried to follow the advice given at http://lists.boost.org/boost/2004/05/6103.php and searched a bit in the internet. unfortunately it doesn't work - when building Win32GUI I still get Linker errors (SHCreateStreamOnFile() can't be resolved)
Only one symbol can't be resolved? That's a likely indicator of a mismatch between the library headers and the library file itself.
The header is correct - I'm only using this function of the lib. And when I'm compiling in VC it links correctly.
here is the relevant code of the jamfile:
... lib win32gui : ../../src/$(SOURCES).cpp : [ common-names ]
<include>../../.. <define>WIN32GUI_NO_LIB <define>WIN32GUI_BUILDING_LIB <threading>multi <library-path>"C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\PlatformSDK\lib"
: debug release <debug><find-library>shlwapi<runtime-link>static <release><find-library>shlwapi<runtime-link>static
Those last two lines should be in the previous section. They describe requirements, not which variants should be built by default.
I assume the library file is called
shlwapi.lib
and located in
C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\PlatformSDK\lib
??
That's right, shlwapi.lib is in the directory. I tried <find-library> to be in the previous section before but it didn't work either...do you have some ideas? btw how can I change my name in the mailinglist? I forgot to write "ss" instead of the German umlaut-s... mfg Steven
