I am using strawberry perl and GDI+ in a project. Everything is getting compiled

  • 0

I am using strawberry perl and GDI+ in a project. Everything is getting compiled properly and I am able to run perl scripts in the Debug mode. But when I am building a release version of my project and then running it, it gives following error

The procedure entry point GdipGetImageThumbnail could not be located in the
dynamic link library perl512.dll.

and application quits on saying OK. I am unable to understand why the system is searching for the API GdipGetImageThumbnail in perl512.dll when it is defined in gdiplus.lib.

    If you are using visual studio. Right click the projects in question. Go to properties and starting with the linker branch, check that all the fields are the same (where appropraite) for both Debug and Release configurations. If no success, check c/c++ and configuration properties. It would also be worth while to check the project dependencies / references. If the debug version is working, there is no reason for the release to not work.

    It may also be wise to check that any classes referenced accross DLLs are defined as external. This may be useful : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/799kze2z(v=vs.80).aspx#3

    Hope this helps.
