Hi all

If I put this lib in the ignore box it will get to the end drops out with
Debugger:: An unhandled non-continuable STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND exception was thrown during process load.

if take it out of the ignore box I get this.

1>MSVCRT.lib(ti_inst.obj) : error LNK2005: "private: __thiscall type_info::type_info(class type_info const &)" (??0type_info@@AAE@ABV0@@Z) already defined in LIBCMT.lib(typinfo.obj)
1>MSVCRT.lib(ti_inst.obj) : error LNK2005: "private: class type_info & __thiscall type_info::operator=(class type_info const &)" (??4type_info@@AAEAAV0@ABV0@@Z) already defined in LIBCMT.lib(typinfo.obj)
1>LINK : warning LNK4098: defaultlib 'MSVCRT' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library
so anyone got a clue as to what I should do. Ho! its a physX demo I am trying to complie.

I think this error code is the most significant:




I would try following its suggestion which is not to ignore the library, but to put it use the /NODEFAULTLIB:library. I am guessing that you may want to replace "library" with "MSVCRT.lib", but I am not entirely sure.

This I would do, if I knew how to do it.

still drowing in the deep end.

Right click your project -> Properties -> Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Input -> Set "Ignore All Default Libraries" to "Yes".

I have no idea if this will fix the underlying problem with your program, but it should get rid of that one error message for you.

Ok the above did not work, however it might be beacuse I have clicked to many buttons, so is there away to set VS back to when it was first installed so that I can then add the bits I need.

Like a reset button.

Ignoring all default libraries makes the compiler fail with about 60 error messages, since NONE of the DarkGDK libs then get linked in.

I'm having this same issue. I'm using VS2008 Standard, and have the March 2009 DX SDK installed. This is probably most of the problem...

I've compiled an empty version of the multiplayer.lib file, following another post somewhere in here where someone described how to build it, to get around the missing dplayx.lib file.

Specifying that the compiler ignore just msvcrt.lib causes other errors (like saying libcmt.lib is causing conflicts -- ignore that one, and then the DirectX files fail to link).

Check this:
http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=122531&b=22

After doing what they say here, it compiles just fine, for both release and debug.

However: I cannot run my project through the debugger. If I do, it crashes in free.c (my code is not calling free anywhere, and is only calling delete at shutdown). I'd set my project to compile the .exe in a \bin directory, and use that as the working directory. No dice. However, if I compile the project and manually run the file, it works fine.

So, I can't debug at all when using the DarkGDK, for the time being. Guess I'll go back to straight-up DirectX...
