Hi,
Using VC++2008 Express on WinXP-SP2,
Referring to "How to write an External in Puredata" http://pdstatic.iem.at/externals-HOWTO/
In short, the code "helloworld" builds and runs fine on both pd-Vanilla0.39 and the latest nightly build of pd-extended. However, the second demonstration "counter" does not work as it lacks symbolic links to _s_float.
Following is an "excerpt" of the output message since parts of the original message is in a foreign language.
hworld.obj : error LNK2001: External symbol "_s_float" unresolved. fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
I've found previous posts going back to 2003 with similar issues of _s_**** not being resolved under VC++ so I am imagining this particular situation is somewhat an FAQ. The sad part is that I found no useful solution suggested.
Does anyone have any idea of what is going on?
