LDR Error

[siavoshkc]

I corrected the first error. Now it compiles and links but right after execution an error occurs:

 LDR: LdrpWalkImportDescriptor() failed to probe C:\WINDOWS\system32\alleg42.dll for its manifest, ntstatus 0xc0150002

I am tired of these errors. Next time I should only get C++ code. What the hell this error is?

[EDIT] If it is portability, portability is a bull.........

Sorry, it seems that was the good error. After forcing static linking:

1>fatal error C1900: Il mismatch between 'P1' version '20060201' and 'P2' version '20050411'

Of course it is ridiculous. Another masterpiece from MS. Its a linker error. There is only one linker version. It works fine for other programs and even for this program when you don't define ALLEGRO_STATICLINK. But let it go, stick with DLL linking. It can't probe multimedia library DLL "Allegro" for its manifest. What does it mean? I downloaded MSVC8 version of library from sourceforge. They surely have tested it.

Have you tried re-installing Visual Studio? Someone on the MSDN forums had the exact same error and resolved it with a re-install.

I have read that. It is not a real version mismatch. It is a bug and error is generated because linker has an unknown problem when linking.

It seems the problem is because alleg42.dll is not in the manifest of my executable. So Side by side assembly execution fails.

[edit] Its funny to have a look at the error log:

Event Type:	Error
Event Source:	SideBySide

Description:
