Why do I get this linker error when trying to compile Calib_dist project in
ARToolkit 2.431-win32:

Linking...
ARvideo32.lib(videoWin32.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
"__declspec(dllimport) class CVisImageSource __stdcall
VisFindImageSource(class CWnd *,bool)"
(__imp_?VisFindImageSource@@Y .?AVCVisImageSource@@P ......@@_N@Z )
../../../bin/calib_dist.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
Error executing link.exe.

calib_dist.exe - 2 error(s), 0 warning(s)


I never had this error before.... :(

Hi,

the problem came from ARvideo32.lib library. I've changed to the library
libARvideo  Pintaric has, and I don't get that linker error any more , but
now I cannot open the video path....I will have to search in depth about
it...cause at this time I cannot change to DirectShow...I've been too long
working with this and it is a matter of time..... I don't know what is
special with that certain application.....all the ones I've been using
worked perfectly. No matter which version I download...that one does not
worl at all!!! did anybody get to compile "calib_dist" under win32 and
VisSDK?????

Thank you so much

Begoņa.-

Hallo BSS,

just a rough guess of mine since I never worked with the 2.431 version
for myself (started with ARToolkit DirectShow):
Check the Linker Settings (I presume you are using Visual V++ 6) by
pressing ALT-F7 and going to the Tab called "Linker".
You need to have the required Libs listed there, if not, you'll get the
reported error LNK2001 (unresolved external symbol).

After searching Google for "VisFindImageSource" I found a hit in the
ARToolkit Mailinglist that describes your problem.

It seems to be best for you if you'd upgrade your ARToolkit from the
VisionSDK version to the DirectShow version.
You should also try to understand the error-messages of your compiler
and also use Google more often.

Hope this helped!
Hasta luego,
 Leif

Sorry, is kinda late and I've away the whole day. I've been working all the
time with DirectShow....cause that is Pintaric library base (I
think..right??) ....mmmmmmm.... I was confused for a moment!! :)
