Building OpenSees in windows

Post by k.manoj »

Dear all:

This is my first attempt to compile OpenSees source code. After all I could get the following error messages:

Linking...
25>LINK : warning LNK4075: ignoring '/INCREMENTAL' due to '/FORCE' specification
25>libm.lib(libm_error.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _errno referenced in function ___libm_error_support
25>.\..\..\bin/openSeesTk.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
25>Build log was saved at "file://f:\Research\Computation (PhD)\OpenSees1.7.5\Win32\obj\openSeesTk\debug\BuildLog.htm"
25>openSeesTk - 2 error(s), 3 warning(s)
========== Build: 22 succeeded, 3 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

I am using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 (version 8.0.50727.42) to compile the source code. I have tcl/tk8.4.6.1 installed in C:\Program Files\Tcl. The Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 and MSDN are installed in D:\Program Files since I want some free space in my drive C.
I have put libm.lib file in the Tcl\lib and build it again. Still it is giving the same above error. :(

I would really appreciate any suggestion or comment to solve this problem.

Thanks in advance...

Frank,

Thanks! It worked :) . However, I am getting 8 warnings as follows.

How can I fix it. Should I replace the names as it suggests.
OR can I proceed even with those warnings.
I am a beginner to C++ and sorry for your inconvenience!!!

Thanks in advance...
