    MFC Errors :: C++

    Hi.

    I am studying MFC from Prosise's book. I read the first three chapters, but have not started implementing any sample until today. Visual C++ output three errors with the "Hello MFC" program.

    MFC-Hello error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __beginthreadex referenced in function "public: int __thiscall CWinThread::CreateThread(unsigned long,unsigned int,struct _SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES *)" (?CreateThread@CWinThread@@QAEHKIPAU_SECURITY_ATTR IBUTES@@@Z)

    -----

    MFC-Hello error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __endthreadex referenced in function "void __stdcall AfxEndThread(unsigned int,int)" (?AfxEndThread@@YGXIH@Z)

    -----

    MFC-Hello fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals

    -----

    Does anyone know what those errors are about? I copied *exactly* what Promise wrote in his book.

    Thanks,
    Kuphryn

    Your code is correct, your project settings are somewhat off. Go to settings and set 'Link MFC static' in the combobox.

    She was so Blonde, she spent 20 minutes looking at the orange juice can because it said "Concentrate."

    When in doubt, read the FAQ.
    Then ask a smart question.

    Thanks.

    I right-clicked on the soure filea and changed from single-thread to multi-thread /MD through option.

    The code works great now.
