WindowsDLLs Build Error

[careybd]

Hello,
I am trying to compile the windows dll project for the first time and I am getting the following error message:


minPackageCPP.lib(UniaxialMaterial.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__strtok referenced in function "public: virtual class Response * __thiscall UniaxialMaterial::setResponse(char const * *,int,class OPS_Stream &)" (?setResponse@UniaxialMaterial@@UAEPAVResponse@@PAPBDHAAVOPS_Stream@@@Z)
./ElasticPPcpp.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

I am assuming this is easily fixed but I cannot figure out whats wrong. Thanks for any help.

Hi Frank,

I'm having a similar issue with minPackage.lib when trying to compile the trussCPP dll example. I downloaded the stable source code this morning from the developer download link. I'm compiling on Windows Vista with Visual C++ Express 2008.

1>Linking...
1>LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'minPackageCPP.lib'

Is this library supposed to be created when compiling OpenSees? If so, it does not appear in my /lib/debug or /lib/release directories.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ok figured it out now. There is a project in OpenSees\PACKAGES\win32 that builds the necessary lib files for making the dlls.

Frank, could you add this to the wiki tutorial at opensees.berkeley.edu/wiki/index.php/Add_a_New_Element_C%2B%2B in case anyone else runs into this?

Thanks,
Robbie

robbie,

i am no longer using the code in PACKAGES, .. it still works, but i have set up an easier way to do it and that it was i am now documenting .. the element code is the same and there are instructions on how to build the DLL which seem to be understandable based on comments that have come back in forums. the documentation can be found here:

Hi Frank,

Thanks for replying so quickly. I took a look around the forums and wiki and found that people had success with files in the tarball opensees.berkeley.edu/OpenSees/code/OpenSeesDeveloper.tar.gz . Unfortunately, the link is not working. If I want to create an element dll, can I get the necessary files by checking out the current SVN? If they are available, can you tell me the paths to the right files since you mention the code in PACKAGES is not being used anymore?

Thanks.

robbie,

sorry about the delay. should be up now.

Hi Frank,

It's no problem. Thank you for getting the link repaired.

Thanks again,
Robbie

Hi frank.
I'm trying to compile a windows dll like example in wiki.
I followed all 24 points in your tutorial. But there is one error during compiling:

[code]
win32Functions.cpp
c:\users\diego\openseesdeveloper\core\win32functions.cpp(70) : error C2086: 'OPS_GetNodeInfoPtrType __cdecl OPS_GetNodeDispFunct' : redefinition

Build log was saved at "file://c:\Users\Diego\OpenSeesDeveloper\material\ElasticPPCPP\Debug\BuildLog.htm"
ElasticPPCPP - 3 error(s), 49 warning(s)
[\code]

I changed file win32functions.cpp to solve the problem, (deleted lines 70 and 71 and added comma at line 74).
I think it's correct.
I hope it can help somebody to solve future problem.

maybe the source is correct now. But when I wrote this message I had just downloaded the file and there was this error.
