Strange, this is happening with the cyclone/toxy objects too. I
wonder what's causing it...

according to previous reports of this error it is likely to be a missing compiler|linker flag somewhere.

which compiler are you using to compile your external. which compiler was used to compile pd? (or: which version of pd are you linking against?)

# Here is the code I've written. The object should be post the number of incoming bangs and the time after creation (when dsp is on) and compiled .dll file is attached.

since you have a .dll, you are on windows right? which windows?
