How to resolve linking error? - visual-studio

I hav a project.it shows error only with linking only.
it displays __getch alresdy defined evnthough i hav ignored specific library MSVCR80D.dll it shows error.
Plz Help me in this regard.....

have a look at the project settings , at Configuration Properties -> C/C++ -> Code Generation -> Runtime Library.
the setting , whether it MD , MTD or whatever, must be compatible between your library and ACE's library.
you should not manually ignore any library, there should be no need for that.

It seems that all the openCV methods are causing the errors. Any idea why? I believe I imported all the libraries/header files correctly into the project, but still I get these problems. Any help/pointing me in the right direction would be great. Thanks!
From the error shown above I assume you are using the RatSLAM C++ libraries, and I too had the same errors during compilation in VS 2010. I was able to solve it with help from the below link :
OpenCV Build on Visual Studio LINK error
The above link says that certain lib files should be configured, like opencv_core246.lib and opencv_highgui246.lib from the OpenCV library folder. The link also leads you to a tutorial explaining how to configure them :
Setup OpenCV-2.3 for Visual Studio 2010
I hope this helps.

statically link lib file causes link-error

I statically link fw.lib in my C++/CLI project, and get these errors:
Error 1 error LNK2028: unresolved token (0A00001B) "extern "C" unsigned int __cdecl func(unsigned int,unsigned char *)" (?func##$$J0YAIIPAE#Z) referenced in function "public: static void __clrcall Sdk::Native::Method(void)" (?Method#Native#Sdk##$$FSMXXZ) C:\project\Sdk.obj Sdk
Error 2 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "extern "C" unsigned int __cdecl func(unsigned int,unsigned char *)" (?func##$$J0YAIIPAE#Z) referenced in function "public: static void __clrcall Sdk::Native::Method(void)" (?Method#Native#Sdk##$$FSMXXZ) C:\project\Sdk.obj Sdk
What do I do wrong ? I did this:
Added the lib path in [project properties -> Library Directories]
Added fw.lib file under [project properties -> Additional Dependencies]
Wrapped all functions in fw.h with extern "C" {...}
Any idea ?
Problem solved...
Apparently when you link, for instance, x64 bit into x32 project (and vice versa ??), the linker produces a very general link-error.
FYI :-)

Symbols Missing for nsiCookieManager2 program

Please help me with the missing LIBs for this MOZILLA program.

Questions:
I dont find any info with function documentation regarding which LIB to include (as I find on MSDN)
Any clue on how to figure out LIB corresponding to particular function for MOZILLA.
The problem isn't with the lib, the symbol missing is defined in the xpcomglue library. However, you seem to have some compile parameters that don't match the parameters used to compile XULRunner/Firefox. The symbols your compiler is looking for contain "QAEX" as parameter description whereas the library defines them with "QAIX". Looking at the name mangling table, your compiler expects unsigned char where Mozilla has unsigned int. I suspect that the reason is you compiling your application without Unicode support - change main() into wmain()?

Linker error while trying to compile OpenCv file with visual studio

I trying to compile some OpenCv functions and I included the cvhaartraining.h from the directory C:\OpenCV2.2\modules\haartraining.
I put on Project > 'Your Project Name' Properties... > Configuration Properties > Linker > Input >
all the .lib files in the opencv library:
"C:\OpenCV2.2\lib\opencv_highgui220d.lib" "C:\OpenCV2.2\lib\opencv_core220d.lib" "C:\OpenCV2.2\lib\opencv_ml220d.lib" "C:\OpenCV2.2\lib\opencv_video220d.lib" "C:\OpenCV2.2\lib\opencv_legacy220d.lib" "C:\OpenCV2.2\lib\opencv_imgproc220d.lib" "C:\OpenCV2.2\lib\opencv_objdetect220d.lib" "C:\OpenCV2.2\lib\opencv_ts220.lib" "C:\OpenCV2.2\lib\opencv_calib3d220d.lib" "C:\OpenCV2.2\lib\opencv_contrib220d.lib" "C:\OpenCV2.2\lib\opencv_features2d220d.lib"

but it still won't link.
The error I get is:

I think Im missing some .lib file, but I dont know which file.
Ill appreciate any help.
What extra lib files do you have? From googling it looks like it's compiled into a file called cvhaartraining.lib.

Linker errors between multiple projects in Visual C++

I have a solution with multiple projects. I have a "main" project, which acts as a menu and from there, the user can access any of the other projects. On this main project, I get linker errors for every function called. How do I avoid these linker errors? I set the project dependencies already in the "Project Dependencies..." dialog.
Thanks
EDIT -- I did as suggested and added the output folder to the linker's additional directories. Now, however, I get a million errors as follows:

It is difficult to answer without knowing all the details about your solution, but I will assume your "other" project are set up to produce a .lib file, and the main project then links all these lib files. If that is the case then a possible cause for the errors you are getting is that your projects link to different versions of the runtime library.
From Microsoft's documentation, "All modules passed to a given invocation of the linker must have been compiled with the same run-time library compiler option (/MD, /MT, /LD)."
Try to change all the projects to use the same version of the runtime library. In Visual Studio 2010, this is in the Project's Properties | Configuration Properties | C/C++ | Code Generation | Runtime Library. Choose either Multi-threaded Debug DLL or Multi-threaded Debug (for your debug configuration).
Without knowing any other detail about your solution it is hard to tell, however Rebuild All, might be helpful. This situation can sometimes occur when there are mixed object files for different architectures.
You might also want to consider using "References" instead of "Dependencies"
EDIT:
After what you have posted it seems that your linkage to standard libraries is inconsistent. Could it be that one of the project links standard libraries statically while others dynamically? (See project properties->linker) Or one to the release runtime, while others to debug? (though the last one should be possible, with caveats)
Are the functions in your other projects exported? If they aren't exported, then there is nothing to link to from the main exe, so that would cause the errors. See Exporting from a DLL Using __declspec(export) for more information.
The errors you are getting are 'error LNK2005' where a symbol in the library you are linking (msvcprtd.lib) has already been defined in another library (for example panels.lib). If you add panels.lib to the 'ignore specific library' field (in VS2008 Configuration Properties--> Linker--> Input -->Ignore specific libraries), the errors will stop.
I presume the linker errors you are getting are for "unresolved symbols"?
If using static libraries (i.e. .lib file), you will need to add the library to the linker input, so that at linkage time the symbols can be linked against. If you don't do this, you'll get an unresolved symbol:
Right-click on the project, and select Properties.
Select Configuration Properties->Linker->Input
Enter the library name (e.g. filename.lib) under Additional Dependencies.
I had a very similar issue to this which turned out to be because one of my libraries had the option 'Treat wchar_t as built-in type' set to a different value to the others. This setting is false by default on new projects. Changing them all to true fixed the problem.
Exactly, at least one of your projects is compiled with a different "Runtime Library" then the others. Maybe you added a new one using the default which is different. Check properties of your project(s) for equal value of "Configuration Properties" -> "C/C++" -> "Code Generation" -> "Runtime Library".
In my case, the problem was because I had kept the function prototypes, the class definitions and the function implementation and the class implementation in a single cpp file. Only when I shifted the declarations and prototypes to a separate header file did these errors disappear. Really weird!
In my case, I have two methods:
Project Properties -> C/C++ -> Code Generation -> Runtime Library. change it to MT.
Add your lack library to: Linker-> Input -> Additional Dependencies. If it doesn't work, try to add a full path instead of a library name.
For example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\lib\amd64\libvcruntime.lib;
That works for me.Answer this question for anyone needs help.
