Ошибка средств компоновщика lnk1561

Я работаю с Visual Studio 2012.

У моего решения есть 3 проекта

Projecta

projectB

projectC

и Иерархия как

projectC зависит от projectB которые в свою очередь зависят от Projecta. Eсть основная функция в projectC и нет основного в projectB и projectA.
Ошибки, которые я получаю:

error LNK1561: entry point must be defined      projectA
error LNK1561: entry point must be defined      projectB

Я пытался изменить в
Свойства конфигурации -> Линкер -> Система -> Подсистема в консоль (/ SUBSYSTEM: CONSOLE) Но проблема все еще сохраняется

Помоги мне в этом.

Кажется, вы неправильно поняли термин «модуль». В Visual Studio такого проекта C ++ нет; Проекты C ++ можно разделить на три категории:

• Программы — компиляция производит exe файл, который может быть выполнен;
• Статические библиотеки — компиляция производит lib файл, который может быть включен в другой проект и связан во время компиляции;
• Динамические библиотеки — компиляция производит dll файл, который может быть прикреплен к вашей программе во время выполнения и обеспечивает дополнительную функциональность.

Из вашего описания вы хотите, чтобы projectB и projectC были статическими библиотеками, но вместо этого вы создали их как исполняемые файлы. Снова запустите мастер создания нового проекта и выберите «статическая библиотека» вместо «Приложение Windows».

Вы можете прочитать больше о статических библиотеках в Библиотека MSDN.

Если статические библиотеки слишком тяжелые для вашего приложения, вы можете просто включить файлы projectB и projectC в свой проект (опционально позаботьтесь о пространствах имен, чтобы не перепутать имена классов). Все зависит от того, какую функциональность вы планируете реализовать в этих «модулях».

18

установите Свойства -> Компоновщик -> Система -> Подсистема на «Windows (/ SUBSYSTEM: WINDOWS)»

9

Я предполагаю, что вы используете Windows для создания этого проекта, для меня, если я обычно использую SDL, я получаю эту ошибку, все, что вам нужно сделать, это ввести #include <Windows.h> это должно исправить это, если нет, то я не уверен, как это исправить.

  You haven’t defined a function named main or wmain or WinMain or  wWinMain.

• If please possible quote the program or just the part of program which consist your entry point of your program. i.e. the part of program having the Main() fuction is it is a console program, the cmd type. or WinMain() function
  if a windows program. If there isn’t one such function then thats is your problem. Your program must have a entry point fuction in other words the function from which your program starts. There might be a possibilty you might have misstyped the fuction name
  incorrectly.

  <evil grin> As you did when you typed:

  It should be: «main() function …»

  C and C++ are case-sensitive languages. The names
  «main» and «Main» are not the same.

  Duplicate post.

• Thanks.

  I uninstalled V.S. because of the difficulty of using it.

  I used the Pro version, and it took about 6 hrs. to download and install.

  I am rethinking if it would be worth the time and effort for what I would probably use

  for only one C ++ source.

  I currently use masm and it’s linker to produce 32 bit programs using assembly source code.

• >Does someone have some working code in C that uses ReportEvent?

  The code from the URL you posted compiles without errors or
  warnings for me using VC++ 2008 Express.

  You need to supply more information about what you are
  doing and how you are doing it, if you want detailed
  help. You have made no mention of *exactly* how you
  have tried to build this example. From the IDE?
  From the command line? If IDE, using which Project
  Template? If from the command line, what was the
  actual and complete command used?

  — Wayne

• I have the required dll file and header file for the project.

  I used the 2003 PSDK to make those.

  I believe in order to test if it works would require changing the path to that dll file.

  I am willing to reinstall VC Express if I know that the program will actually work.

  I could upload those files in order to assist in any way.

  Could you do that for me?

  Maybe a screen shot of the results?

  Thanks,

  Andy

• I am at this point in my project.

  Where is the Win32 App Wizard?

  1. In the Win32 Application Wizard , click Application Settings to reveal options for Application type. Under
     Additional Options , select Empty Project and then click
     Finish .

  2. Further on down is this.

  3. Can I go straight to making the executable?

  Can I stop the autoformatting for my replies?

  Thanks.

  1. To build and examine the program

     1. On the Build menu, click Build Solution .

        The Output window displays information about the compilation progress, for example, the location of the build log and a message that states the build status.

     2. On the Debug menu, click Start without Debugging .

        If you used the sample program, a command window is displayed and shows whether certain integers are found in the set.

• Hello Raleigh77,

  If you compiling from command line, just add /entry:wmain

  Are you including <windows.h> as your first include? The word before

  «Provider» in provider.h is POLARITY, which is defined in <polarity.h>,

  which should have been included, if you did things in the proper order.

• Thanks Tim.

  There is no reference to Polarity in any of my sources.

  I am using everything at the website that was provided.

  I will have to check but I believe that windows.h is in the source code.

  I assume that VB C++ knows what to do and that it was included in the package

  that I downloaded.

  Yes, I know that. There are thousands and thousands of standard API

  include files, and those files depend greatly on one another, and on a

  particular ordering. Somehow, you have caused a standard file to be

  included without one of the files it depends on.

  That can happen if you #include a specific file by name without including

  <windows.h> first.

  There are rules to be followed to use these APIs. It’s a little dangerous

  to start compiling code without understanding what it does.

  The source came from above, and as you can see, it is/was from Microsoft.

  The following example shows how to use the
  NotifyChangeEventLog function to receive notification when an event is logged.

  For the future, I will consider the possibility that any code, may be incomplete.

  But I did learn a lot from the process. 🙂

  I don’t see how you get that. I just cut-and-pasted that text into a file

  called x.cpp, then did:

  cl x.cpp

  and it compiled and linked without any further ado.

  Still, if you have achieved success, that’s what matters.

• #define PROVIDER_NAME L"MyEventProvider"
  
  #define RESOURCE_DLL L"<path>\Provider.dll"

  But did your .exe run correctly ?

  If it did, you will have an event at the end of a specified event log.

  ( ReportEvent function writes an entry at the end of the specified event log.)

  I have some other questions for you.

  For the program to work, it needs a path to the dll.

  Did you change <path> to the actual path?

  Did you make provider.dll ?

  And no, I did not achieve sucess.

  Take care,

  main() function cannot be a template. Think about it: main() is called  by the operating system — how is the OS supposed to know which type to  use for T?
