Unresolved Token and other link errors when migrating from VC++ 2003 to VC++2005 Express

Hello all,

Here is the situation. I am migrating an existing solution from Visual C++ 2003 to Visual C++ 2005 Express. I have the Platform SDK installed as well. The solution contains two mixed mode projects. One is essentially a managed wrapper dll for a 3rd party static win32 library. I do not have access to the source for the 3rd party library. The other project is a managed executable that utilizes the wrapper dll.

These projects worked fine under 2003 but now when I build the DLL project I get the following errors and I am trying to find out why.

I have gone through and removed the dependency on _vcclrit.h via the instructions in http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms173267.aspx

If anyone has any ideas please let me know.

Errors:

Unresolved Token and other link errors when migrating from VC++ 2003 to VC++2005 Express

John Bar
I fixed my problem. I created a new configuration to compile in, and for some reason it removed some of the imports. I was missing gdiplus.lib. Once I put it back in, it compiled fine
MyP3uK
You said you removed /Zi (Z lowercase I) but the flag that I needed to remove was /Zl (Z lowercase L). Was this just a typo, or did you remove a different flag

I only ran into this when converting old projects. If your project file isn't too complicated, it might be easier to start over with a new project file and add your existing source to it.

Any Ideas

I have similar problem. but i am using VC++ 2002 frame work 1.0

i am trying to create a bitmap file of a dialog window using GDI+

i get 9 of the following type error during linking.

test_window error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "enum Gdiplus::Status __stdcall Gdiplus::DllExports::GdipCloneStringFormat(class Gdiplus::GpStringFormat const *,class Gdiplus::GpStringFormat * *)" ( GdipCloneStringFormat@DllExports@Gdiplus@@$$J18YG AW4Status@2@PBVGpStringFormat@2@PAPAV42@@Z)

I dont have /Zl

my code using the GDI is:

#include <windows.h>
#include <gdiplus.h>
#include <stdio.h>
using namespace Gdiplus;

GdiplusStartupInput gdiplusStartupInput;
ULONG_PTR gdiplusToken;
GdiplusStartup(&gdiplusToken, &gdiplusStartupInput, NULL);

Gdiplus::Bitmap *gbit = new Gdiplus::Bitmap(hbm, hPal); //where hbm is a HBITMAP and hPal is HPALLET

GdiplusShutdown(gdiplusToken);

As of right now I do not have a stand alone sample that will reproduce the problem. As it is, the link errors are occuring when trying to link to proprietary code so I cannot share a stand alone example based on this. I may have something similiar that I can share though, but I will have to see. Thank you for looking into this.

Well, I had "/Zi" flags in use so I took that out just in case but still no joy. We have even upgraded to Visual Studio 2005 Professional instead of the Express editions but no real change with that either. So I am back to square one.

If anyody has even a minute idea of what might be going on let me hear it. Right now, I can keep using 2003 for my part of this project but sooner or later I am going to need to migrate it. Hopefully I'll find out what is up before then.

Thanks,

I did not have /ZI instead I had /Zi. /ZI and /Zi do different things. I figured that I would just try getting rid of the one I had just in case it made a difference...it did not.

My project is fairly complex but at this point I am going to take your advice and try starting over with a new project. Thanks for your help.

SoftwareGerbil

OK folks,

I've been on vacation an couldn't update things here. I finally just dump my Visual Studio 2005 converted solution files and started from scratch and added my files as suggested. This seems to have taken care of a majority of my issues especially the above mentioned unresolved tokens. I still have a few minor problems but I believe that these are because I am linking to a static 3rd party Visual Studio 2003 libraries as all of the link errors involve only the these libs. Anyway, I ahve contacted the 3rd part and we will see what happens.

Thanks for all of the help and suggestions from everyone.

For me, a
#pragma comment(lib, "gdiplus.lib")
worked perfectly.

Have you included gdiplus.lib as an additionaly dependency

Thank you for your advise. I removed "/Zl" flag and my project compile perfectly.

thank you again.
