Link error in Visual Studio 2005 pro (SOME errors inside) Topic is solved

[jjoe]

Hello,

I have built the wx library in "multi-thread debug" mode.

When I trying to build my own hello world application, there are 3247 link errors. All of them come from "wxbase26d.lib" and "wxbase26d_core.lib."

Code: Select all

[b]Please do not post more then 10 errors, they are usually related to the same problem and really lets our database get huge for no reason - Jorgen[/b]

[cpp]

it seems the errors youre getting have something to do with memory management, new and debug operators, i sugest you edit your setup.h file, and set:

Code: Select all

#define wxUSE_DEBUG_CONTEXT 0
#define wxUSE_MEMORY_TRACING 0
#define wxUSE_GLOBAL_MEMORY_OPERATORS 0
#define wxUSE_DEBUG_NEW_ALWAYS 0

and recompile the library.
after that, try to compile the minimal sample, you dont need wxWidgets built it memory debugin tools if you use VC

[Jorg]

Make sure that you compile your app and wxWidgets with the same DLL options. Try setting your linker options to Mutlithreaded Debug DLL. Not multithreaded debug and see what happens then.

Do the samples provided with wxWidgets build? If so, copy the project settings and make sure your project settings match.

To Jorg and cpp:

Both methods don't work for me.

To Jorg and cpp:

Both methods don't work for me.

can you please recompile wxwidgets, and it's samples and see if it works, because that might help... oh and don't forget to retry yours using the same applicable settings.

To cpp:

The #define code you suggested have already been set in C:\wxWidgets-2.6.3\include\wx\msw\setup.h

The version of VC I used has unknown problems.

I installed a fresh VC 2005 express + Platform SDK, and got it to work by following http://forums.wxwidgets.org/viewtopic.p ... sc&start=0
