The most likely cause is that the Lua lib compiles as a C library,
but lua.h is not surrounded by extern "C", and your project is probably a
C++ project, which will compile lua.h as C++, thereby causing linker errors when
it can't find the C++ name mangled version of the lua API.
To solve this, include lua.hpp (like someone has already
suggested).
Brian From: lua-bounces@bazar2.conectiva.com.br [mailto:lua-bounces@bazar2.conectiva.com.br] On Behalf Of Remo Dentato Sent: Saturday, December 20, 2008 4:58 PM To: lua@bazar2.conectiva.com.br Subject: Linking lua lib with Microsoft VS2005 On Windows I usually use mingw to compile and link Lua but this time I have to use Visual Studio 2005. I can easily compile the lua51.DLL and the 2 executables (lua.exe and luac.exe) with the luavs.bat script in the etc directory of the distribution package. Everything works fine, the interpreter runs and so on. I can also modify that script to compile Lua as a static library lua51.lib and link it to lua.exe and luac.exe. Again everything works fine. The problem is when I try to link the library to the larger program I'm working on. I get the LNK2019 error (symbol unresolved). I tried both with the DLL and with the static .lib but I had no success. I checked with dumpbin and the symbols are in the library. Everything has been compiled as C using the /Tc and /TC switches. I don't know where else to look! Does anyone have a suggestion?? Is there any flag I should use that I might have missed? Thanks, Remo check out the rest of the Windows Live™.
