Thread: InternetGetConnectedState() help !

Hello there
I am trying to get the internet status info with InternetGetConnectedState() but its not working. Take a look at my code...

Code:

#include <iostream>#include <wininet.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    BOOL result;
    DWORD check;
    result = InternetGetConnectedState(&check,0);
    if(result)
    {
        cout<<"Internet status is : TRUE";
    }
    else
    {
        cout<<"No Internet Connection";
    }
    return 0;
}

When I am trying to compile and run its showing below error :

C:\[my_path]\main.o:main.cpp|| undefined reference to `InternetGetConnectedState@8'|

I am using codeblocks and GCC compiler.

You have to tell your linker to use Wininet.lib/Wininet.dll

It's something like project->settings->linker->additional libraries.

I thought I have mistakes in my code .......but its working now.... Thank you very much bro.
