Re: Compile problem

Hello Paul,

Yes, as you say, I can go to the Project's Property page and can change the
"Entry Point", but:

If you read the error, it really means that the "Entry Point" is there
however the reference for wWinMain is not found. So, there must be missing
DLL/LIB file contains the wWinMain which the Linker needs to know.

Do you have any idea what DLL/LIB has that?

Thanks!

Huh? What do you mean you can't do anything about it? You can't change the
project settings? If you can't do that, you're out of luck.

In the Solution Explorer, right-click on the project name and choose
Properties. In the Configuration Properties portion of the tree, choose
Linker and, under that, Advanced. Note that Entry Point is the first item
in the list. If that's been set wrong by the conversion, you should be able
to change it. You might also check the subsystem setting, etc. It *is*
going to be possible to make this work, but you may have to fool with it, as
I said.

Hello Paul,

Thanks for answering my question. However, it does not solve it, from my
point of view. I think the whole issue is the SW architecture differences
between the two compilers: eMebedded and Visual Studio 2005. And changing
the "Entry Point" as you said, is really beyond my reach. In other words,
I
cannot do anything about that.

I really hope that you and others can point me a right way to solve this
error.

Thanks again, Paul

The project is assuming a certain entry point, so you'll need to change
the
Link setting for the entry point to correspond to what entry point you
actually have (not sure why the conversion didn't work right). I'm not
sure
exactly what the right entry is, but that's where you need to make the
change (Entry Point), so maybe you can figure it out from that pointer...

Hello all,

I really need your helps here.

I had a dialog-based app compiled using eMbedded 4.2 PPC 2003 SDK. It
runs
great on Pocket PC device. Now, I want to compile it using Microsoft
Visual
Studio 2005 with either Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK or Mobile 5.0
SmartPhone
SDK.

The project conversion is OK, compile process is OK. However, it gives
a
linking problem, like below:

Error 1 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol wWinMain referenced
in
function wWinMainCRTStartup in file corelibc.lib.

Does anyone know anything how to fix this? I would be very thankful to
have
answers for this.

Thanks in advance.
