unresolved external symbol

sizeof (3)
Write your question here.
VS 2010. When I tried to compile a C++ MFC project. There seems exists a lacking of lib when linking libs. But I do not know which lib is missing and how to fix it.

Both IUmeasurec.cpp and .h are written by myself.

Hello sizeof,

With out the code to look at it is hard to say what the problem is. Generally when I find these type of errors it starts somewhere in the source code not being able to locate a variable or function in the code file(s).

It could also be that a ".lib" file is not being linked because your settings are off and not finding the sub-directory where the ".lib" file is located.

My first thought is that it is in the source code somewhere.

Hope that helps,

Andy

Thanks. I have also searched google. Some people with the same question says that the lacking of lib causes this problem. But I do not know how to figure out which lib is lacking in my case?

Hello sizeof,

At the beginning of the file the "include" files generally do not make any difference as to order, but sometimes it does. I believe that the "include "stdafx.h" file needs to be the first file included in a program. Note: when posting code it is best to leave that file out of your post. A lot of people who may use some version of VS are more likely to create an empty project to put your code in as opposed to what you are doing.

By the time I get to the lines:
1
2
 
#include "IUmeasure.h"
#include <Python.h>

I do not have "IUmeasure.h" to include and "Python.h" is not in my VS 2017 or in my VS 2015 include directory.

I do not know about VS 2010, but I would check the include directory and make sure the "Python.h" is there first. you might even try a search of the C drive and see if it shows up somewhere else. I will see if I can find a "Python.h" file.

When you post code like this it is best to include the header file so that whom ever is helping will have all the information need to compile the program.

Right now the error messages I am receiving are completely different because of the files I do not have.
