RE: [Nel] libXML, the bane of my project...

[Timothy H. Schilbach]

HI Andi,

 

  Great response and dont worry about the response times. I took your suggestion (as I have both current versions of zlib and iconv) and linked those into my project:

 

freetype.lib libxml2_a.lib iconv.lib zlib.lib kernel32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib winspool.lib comdlg32.lib advapi32.lib shell32.lib ole32.lib oleaut32.lib uuid.lib odbc32.lib odbccp32.lib /nologo /subsystem:windows /pdb:none /machine:I386 /out:"Release/snowballs.exe"

 

  Great news is I have all but cut out all of my errors except for 4 of them:

 

--------------------Configuration: client - Win32 Release--------------------
Linking...
libxml2_a.lib(xpath.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __ftol2
libxml2_a.lib(xpointer.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __ftol2
libxml2_a.lib(xmlschemastypes.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __ftol2
Release/snowballs.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
Error executing link.exe.

snowballs.exe - 4 error(s), 0 warning(s)

 

  I downloaded the libxml-2.6.11 release and compiled it with static options and all libraries included. I then replaced all files in my include path with the new ones and all but the remaining 4 errors exist now. This is an awesome breakthrough as we have just one set of errors left, YAY!

 

  Any idea what is causing the last ones? I am wondering what ftol2 connects too. I am looking that up in google now in homes to solve that last error. Thank you once again for all the hep you have rendered. With any luck, this will help others in the future :-)

 

-Timothy

this means you are missing the

 

iconv.lib

 

and

 

zlib.lib

 

libraries, if they are in your link path in visual studio add them to the list of libraries to link to.

 

you can compile libxml2 without these requiremetns using the options iconv=no and zlib=no

 

but i would keep at least the zlib

 

hope this helps sorry i cannot respond faster :)
