Linker In Dev C++
-->
An environment variable, C++/CX compiler options, and linker options support the building of apps for the Windows Runtime.
Library path
- Jan 10, 2009 sounds like it couldn't find the definition of the constructor in your program. Maybe you left it out, that happens to me sometimes as well. Root=new BSTNode(newitem); I don't see a constructor for BSTNode with a single parameter inside your class as well.
- These compilers can create both 32bit and 64bit executables and generally ship with much more Microsoft related headers and libraries. When you place these compilers in Dev-CppMinGW64, Dev-C can automatically configure them on first launch or via Tools Compiler Options Find Compilers.
- Compiler and Linker options (C/CX); 2 minutes to read +1; In this article. An environment variable, C/CX compiler options, and linker options support.
Apr 23, 2006 Here is what resolved this problem, as per part of the FAQ at Dev-C website: void WinMain 'changed to' int main allowed the compilation to complete and create main.o. Note: if you only change WinMain to main and keep the void, likely your compilation will continue to fail.
The %LIBPATH% environment variable specifies the default path to search for .winmd files.
Compiler options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| /ZW /ZW:nostdlib | Enables Windows Runtime language extensions. The nostdlib parameter prevents the compiler from using the standard, predefined search path to find assembly and .winmd files.The /ZW compiler option implicitly specifies the following compiler options: - /FI vccorlib.h, which forces inclusion of the vccorlib.h header file that defines many types that are required by the compiler. - /FU Windows.winmd, which forces inclusion of the Windows.winmd metadata file that's provided by the operating system and defines many types in the Windows Runtime. - /FU Platform.winmd, which forces inclusion of the Platform.winmd metadata file that's provided by the compiler and defines most types in the Platform family of namespaces. |
| /AIdir | Adds a directory, which is specified by the dir parameter, to the search path that the compiler uses to find assembly and .winmd files. |
| /FUfile | Forces the inclusion of the specified module, or .winmd file. That is, you don't have to specify #usingfile in your source code. The compiler automatically forces the inclusion of its own Windows metadata file, Platform.winmd. |
| /D 'WINAPI_FAMILY=2' | Creates a definition that enables the use of a subset of the Win32 SDK that's compatible with the Windows Runtime. |
Linker options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| /APPCONTAINER[:NO] | Marks the executable as runnable in the appcontainer (only). |
| /WINMD[:{NO ONLY}] | Emits a .winmd file and an associated binary file. This option must be passed to the linker for a .winmd to be emitted. NO—Doesn't emit a .winmd file, but does emit a binary file. ONLY—Emits a .winmd file, but doesn't emit a binary file. |
| /WINMDFILE:filename | The name of the .winmd file to emit, instead of the default .winmd file name. If multiple file names are specified on the command line, the last name is used. |
| /WINMDDELAYSIGN[:NO] | Partially signs the .winmd file and places the public key in the binary. NO—(Default) Doesn't sign the .winmd file. /WINMDDELAYSIGN has no effect unless /WINMDKEYFILE or /WINMDKEYCONTAINER is also specified. |
| /WINMDKEYCONTAINER:name | Specifies a key container to sign an assembly. The name parameter corresponds to the key container that's used to sign the metadata file. |
| /WINMDKEYFILE:filename | Specifies a key or a key pair to sign the assembly. The filename parameter corresponds to the key that's used to sign the metadata file. |
Linker Options In Dev C++
Remarks
When you use /ZW, the compiler automatically links to the DLL version of the C Runtime (CRT). Linking to the static library version is not allowed, and any use of CRT functions that are not allowed in a Universal Windows Platform app will cause a compile-time error.
