  • 0

I am trying to compile a c++ application using the following command in command prompt:

cl -I"c:\Program files\Java\jdk1.5.0_07\include" -I"c:\program files\java\jdk1.5.0_07\include\win32" -MD -LD HelloWorld.cpp -FeHelloWorld.dll

However, this produces the following error:

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file ‘MSVCRT.lib’

Have you any ideas of what is causing this and how to fix it?

I have visual studio 2005 installed on windows.

Thanks,

-Pete

    Any ideas of what is causing this and how to fix it?

    The linker needs to be pointed to the location of MSVCRT.lib, as it doesn’t seem to be in your LIBPATH.

    It should be here: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 7\VC\lib

    Add -link -LIBPATH:"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\lib"
