I am working on a program for a class, it compiles but when I try and run it it gives me a compile error. Anybody know what I am doing wrong. By the way, I haven't yet put in the fuction call to the output function yet, I want to get the imput an the sort function working first.
I have attached the code
What I do not understand is that you say it compiles and gives you a compile error. It is either one or the other...
I do not get a compile, link, or runtime error with the code as written using Borland Turbo 5.5.1,
You should allow the user to quit after entering a name and semester grades so that if they do not want to keep entering students, they do not have to....
Thanks for replying to my post. I am using MS Visual C++ and although it compiles, I get a linking error. Here is what I get:
Compiling...
Skipping... (no relevant changes detected)
Assignment 3a.cpp
Assignment 3a.obj - 0 error(s), 0 warning(s)
Linking...
LIBCD.lib(wincrt0.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _WinMain@16
Debug/Assingment 3a.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
Error executing link.exe.
Assingment 3a.exe - 2 error(s), 0 warning(s)
Maybe you have some of your libraries in a different spot than the linker is looking for. I use MSVC++ 6.0 and it compiled, linked and ran fine on my machine. I'm not sure where the default libraries are supposed to be, but check the documentation.
It works perfectly for me in Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0.
Try compiling it as a console program rather than as a Win32 application. "LIBCD.lib(wincrt0.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _WinMain@16 " usually indicates it is looking for the function "WinMain()" which is equivalent to "main()" in a console application.
Thanks for all the help you guys gave me. It looks like I FUBARed my compiler. That's what I get for trying to upgrade my compiler using Bearshare :)
