Question

#include <wininet.h>
int main()
{


    auto res = InternetAttemptConnect(0);
    return 0;
}

Error I’m getting (I use code::blocks):
undefined reference to `InternetAttemptConnect@4’|

Any one knows what library (which file) do I need to specify in linker settings to make it work?

Answer 1

The point is that I cannot provide a path for .dll file.

At run-time your program will use the DLL, but at build-time you must link to the LIB associated with the DLL.

The LIB will be is in your compiler/SDK directory (and the paths to directories which contain your LIB files is a linker option).
