I am compiling a project under Visual Studio 2013 (OS: Windows 7). The Project is compiled with the Platform Toolset "Visual Studio 2008 (v90)". In the options I have set a dll to be loaded delayed like this:
/DELAYLOAD:"PluginPost.dlll"
The error I am getting is the following:
1>LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'Delayimp.lib'
And now my question is the following. I know that I need the Delayimp.lib in order to load a dll delayed, but where do I find this Delayimp.lib?
Thank you in advance for any hints.
PS. I am compiling a 64 Bit application.
Make sure to add ;C:\Windows\System32 to your PATH system variable at Control Panel\System and Security\System -> Advanced system settings -> Environment Variables. Also pay attention to not use unnecessary spaces between each path.

For a research, I'm developing a Proxy DLL for nvcuda.dll (NVIDIA CUDA runtime) which resides in System32. To ease up debugging I change linker output to System32, however, I receive
LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'C:\Windows\System32\nvcuda.dll'
Here are the solutions I have tried:
Disabled the UAC.
Took ownership of System32 folder.
Ran the program as admin.
There are no white-spaces in the path to the file and no other program uses the DLL (it can be removed and renamed manually). The linker works fine for any other location, am I missing something?
EDIT:
An interesting observation is that I am able to build the same solution using msbuild as follows:
msbuild nvcuda.sln /p:Configuration=Debug /p:Platform=x64
On compiling a program in Visual Studio on a laptop, I'm seeing these warnings/errors:
warning MSB8003: Could not find WindowsSDKDir variable from the registry. TargetFrameworkVersion or PlatformToolset may be set to an invalid version number.
error C1083: Cannot open include file 'winapifamily.': No such file or directory
On leaving the program (don't know if this is related), I see this error:
An error occurred while creating or opening the C++ browsing database file c:....sdf.
Ensure that Microsoft SQL Server Compact 4.0 is installed and no other applications are accessing the file.
What should I reinstall, or set?
My previous answer was deleted, however I believe it to be correct, so let me clarify it.
If you're targeting Windows XP with Visual Studio 2013 and you get winapifamily.h not found, you're probably missing the Windows 7 Platform SDK. The v120_xp toolset cannot find the V7.1A includes so it includes Windows 8 SDK files which include winapifamily.h (an include that was added in Windows 8) but that doesn't exist with the v120_xp toolset. So like I said, installing the Platform SDK (Windows 7) fixes it.
I'm trying to compile some netmf firmware using MSBUILD with Yagarto. I'm doing it on a machine with VS2012 and all the right pre-requisites installed. From a command prompt as administrator, I go to the NetMF Porting Kit folder, where all the source code lives, I call setenv_gcc.cmd 4.6.0 c:\yagarto46
Doing so yields two warnings:
WARNING: Count not find vsvars32.bat
WARNING: VISUAL C++ DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE
INSTALLED ON THIS MACHINE.
When I try the above command from VS2012 Developer Command Prompt as Administrator I get the following ERROR
ERROR: Cannot determine the location of the VS Common Tools folder.
I've done the path modifications in Environment System Variables with no luck.
Thanks!
VS2010 command prompt gives error : Cannot determine the location of the VS Common Tools folder
I modified the vsvars32.bat file in the vs11 and vs10 folders accordingly and the error went away... Now onto eliminating my build errors....

Boost Lib Version: 1.47
Downloaded "boost_1_47_setup.exe" installer from http://www.boostpro.com/download/
Initially installed everything for VS 10, then just checked every box (5+ GB install!)
Added the "boost\boost_1_47" path into "Additional Include Directories" in C++->General
Copy/Pasted code from "Getting Started on Windows: 4 - Build a Simple Program Using Boost"
Compiled without issue
Included boost/regex.hpp and re-compiled
Received Error:

Expected, haven't built the binaries yet.
Ran "Visual Studio Command Prompt" from tools folder in my VS 10 installation as admin
cd'ed to boost root
Ran bootstrap.bat from command line

Everything I did came from the Getting Started page on Boost.org. Not sure if its just dated or if I'm doing something wrong.
Came here looking for answers, found some similar issues, namely the following:

No dice. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
The compiler cannot find the BOOST's library file. To fix the issue you have to find on your computer the libboost_regex-vc100-mt-gd-1_47.lib file and add its folder path to the Project->YourProjectName Properties (Alt+F7)->Configuration Properties->Linker->General->Additional Library Directories. After recompile your project.
This is the answer to the above comment of #Johnny 5....thousand. In VS10 the compiler-wide additional libraries are deprecated. I solved the problem by adding a new project property sheet to all my projects. It is possible to do it by calling the Property Manager Tab (View->Property Manager). In the Property Manager Tab is necessary to click right mouse button on the project, select Add New Project Property Sheet, Save the sheet to a well-known place. After to define a new User Macro - Name:BOOST, Value: Your Boost Path, for example c:\boost_1_47_0\, also add the $(BOOST) to the Additional Include Directories and ad the $(BOOST)\lib to the Additional Library Directories. That's all. For all other projects is required to add existing property sheet.
I'm trying to start a C++ Qt application and have it run and compile in Visual Studio 2010.
Doing some googling, I found that there was a Visual Studio Qt Add-in, and so I installed this. I already had a MinGW Qt binary installed, and when this did not work, I found that you have to compile the source for Visual Studio 2010 (the VS 2008 binary will cause deployment issues).
Using this as a guide: How to build Qt for Visual Studio 2010, I compiled the open source version, and added it to the PATH, along with a QTDIR env variable. Hoping that I got it finally working, I created a "Qt Application" using the New Project Wizard in Visual Studio 2010. Once I finished, I tried to build the program, only to see the following error:
1>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'qtmaind.lib'
I looked in the C:\QT\lib folder, and found that I only have a qtmaind.prl, but no clue as to why there is no qtmaind.lib.
I am able to echo the QMAKESPEC environmental variable to get a 'win32-msvc2010' output.
I've tried several different combinations of flags for the configure step, including the one in the link, and even tried manually setting the -platform flag.
If anyone can offer any help, it would be greatly appreciated! :D
Just ran across this same problem. I changed the "-release" flag from the linked guide to "-debug-and-release", and then it built the qtmaind.lib library (presumably, that "d" suffix stands for debug).
I encountered this issue when running a project whose settings were hardcoded for a particular machine setup.
I could see that the vcxproj file had something like:
C:\Qt\4.8.1\libqtmaind.lib
I could not find this lib file in my machine. I replaced the line by:
C:\Qt\4.7.3\lib\Qtmaind.lib
It looks like the names of library files are different across Qt versions.Or, maybe the library files were renamed.
Also, the 'd' denoted debug. If you cannot find any lib file post-fixed by 'd', it is likely that you did not 'make' a debug version of Qt.
You can cross check this by opening the .Sln file created by configure. Mine was named Projects.sln. You can open this in notepad and see if win32-debug configurations are present.
This might be a QMAKESPEC issue. Try setting your QMAKESPEC environment variable to
win32-msvc2010
and rebuild Qt like that. This should give you .lib files in your Qt folder
in QT 5.3 with vs 2013
in properties -> linker -> input
remove ANY path for qt libraries such qtmaind.lib
this is known BUG
