Hi, All
I have a .dll file which exports a function called GetData().
The header file RegSys.h contains:
__declspec
(dllexport) int GetData();The source file RegSys.cpp contains:
int
CRegSysApp::GetData(){
return 100; // sample code to simply the question
}
The client application imports this function:
The header file TestBench.h contains:
__declspec
(dllimport) int GetData();The source file TestBench.cpp contains:
BOOL CTestBenchApp::InitInstance(void)
{
int nData = GetData();
if(nData ==100)return TRUE;
}
I did include RegSys.lib, RegSys.dll and RegSys.h in the corresponding TestBench folders. It gave me the errors:
TestBench error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) int __cdecl GetData(void)" (__imp_ GetData@@YAHXZ) referenced in function "public: virtual int __thiscall CTestBenchApp::InitInstance(void)" ( InitInstance@CTestBenchApp@@UAEHXZ)
TestBench fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
Any comments will be highly appreciated!

Based on the information provided it looks as if you are trying to export a function of a class.
__declspec(dllexport) int GetData(); ========> is this part of a class
The source file RegSys.cpp contains:
int
CRegSysApp::GetData(){
return 100; // sample code to simply the question
}
but when you import you are importing it as a global function
__declspec(dllimport) int GetData();
I hope you understand now why the compiler is complaining.
