Problems Linking .lib files

[Oliveira]

Hi!!

In instrument files menu of my application I added some .lib files.

I also add the .h files.

I can compile the project (using the crtl+K command) but it is impossible to run it. It occurs a link error.

The following error appears:
Undefined symbol '_ds_test_function@12' referenced in 'dsComm.c'

How can I solve it? Have I to do another thing when I attach a .lib file in my project?


Thank you!

Hello Olivera,

I think you are missing "dsComm.h" header file. Look for it, copy it and paste it in the file which has your "ds_test_function". Let me know of the outcome.

Hello!

I added the .h file in the project... Have this thing ever occurred with you?

Thank you

Hi Olivera,

This frequenly happens to me. There are three ocations that I have had link errors:

1)  I added a library to my program but the .lib file was an outdated version.

2)  My program was missing a file that it could not find

3)  My program was missing a header file.

So, when you get link errors these are some things to look for.

Anyway, did your problem get solved after adding the the header file?

What are the critieria for a library to be considered an "outdated" version?

Hi!

Answering your questions:

The library in updated. All files that are required are in the environment path and the header file has no problems.

I am afraid that it is a CVI bug, because one of my libraries starts to work after I begin a new project and the other stops.

Do you have any other idea?
