I know this has been asked alot, but I couldn't find the answer in older threads.

Picture this: I have a project written in DGDK that compiles with no problems, but when I #include <string> -(w/o .h)- I get this linker errors:



I have no idea about it, because I just tried to include it in the project w/o writing a line of code using that library!

Thanks in advance

I have not seen this one before but it is undoubtably caused by compiler / linker settings. I would defnitely check those settings first.

The initial warning about LIBCMT would indicate you are somehow trying to mix release libraries with debug libraries as LIBCMT.LIB is the C Runtime multithreaded static link release library and the library raising the error LIBCPMTD.LIB is a Standard C++ multithreaded static link debug library.

I'd check your settings for the compiler first if I were you.

e.g. make sure you dont have _DEBUG defined as a preprocessor directive with the runtime library set to /MT or something like that!

If all else fails try posting your compiler and linker command line settings from the project properties. Maybe someone smarter than me can spot something!

No matter how good your code is, someone will improve on it

Yeah, that's it. Thanks man

I'm just wondering about the cause of this! I could compile my code in 'Release' mode but not in 'Debug' mode!!!
(Do you know why?!!!)

I deleted the _DEBUG and tadda! It simply worked

Thanks again.

Your welcome mate, glad I was able to help!

With regard to the modes, it's all down to what's configured behind them, you have to be careful not to change things which can result in non compatible libraries being combined at Link time. I don't pretend to fully understand it myself, but would recommend having a look at the following MSDN link as a starting point:
