failure to import external C libraries in C++ project

nocturna_gr · 12-02-2007, 03:14 PM

Hi,
i use Visual Studio 2005 and i am trying to import some C libs statically in C++ code. In my StdAfx.h, i include the following:

Code:

...
extern "C"{

#include <ok.h>

#include <scardcl.h>

}
...

As soon as i try to compile, i get the following errors. Does anyone suspect what is going on?

Code:

....

StdAfx.cpp

Didn't the repetitious nature of those errors clue you in that you possibly didn't have to post ALL that crap?

Elysia · 12-02-2007, 03:35 PM

No, we have no idea because you've supplied no code to tell us what you're doing.

The first few are obvious. ok.h is doing #define BLAH, but BLAH was already #defined...
For the others, just search for the error code. The MSDN usually tells you what caused it and how to fix it.
Ex. C4430:
