Simconnect and Dev-C++ problem

[kiek 1,215]

Hi,Has anybody managed to get it to work with Dev-C++?I try to build the Open and Close example, it compiles OK, but the Linker complains with the following messages:undefined refrence to 'SimConnect_Open@24'undefined refrence to 'SimConnect_Close@4'while I have put SimConnect.lib in the project directory and have add it to the Linker command...?I thought it might be the COFF vs OMF problem, and tried the Borland version of the library, but that was no solution.Nicohttp://www.nicokaan.nl

I think you need to tell the compiler/linker that they are C, not C++. That should have been accomplished by the SIMCONNECTAPI declaration in front of each declaration in SimConnect.h.You will see that SIMCONNECTAPI is defined just before the declarations as:#if !defined(SIMCONNECTAPI)#define SIMCONNECTAPI extern "C" HRESULT __stdcall#endifMaybe your compiler doesn't understand "C"?RegardsPete

Hi Pete,Thanks for your help.Yes my compiler understands C.... its'a C/C++ compiler.I have linked C functions to a C++ program before, actually that 's what I'm also doing with my FSCONV program (in C++) using FSUIPC.Any other ideas?Nicohttp://www.nicokaan.nl
