Linker error

Anonymous — Tue, 06 Dec 2005 06:59:31 GMT

Hi all

Can anyone give me a hint on this one. The problem occurs when using

actrTransactionManager->startTransaction();

Resulting in:

error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "class AcApDocManager * __cdecl acDocManagerPtr(void)" (?acDocManagerPtr@@YAPAVAcApDocManager@@XZ) referenced in function "class AcTransactionManager * __cdecl acTransactionManagerPtr(void)" (?acTransactionManagerPtr@@YAPAVAcTransactionManager@@XZ)

Thanks
Tore

This is exported from acad.exe and is in acad.lib. So, make sure that
acad.lib is included in your link.

Are you getting this error while linking a .dbx module? If so, it would
be expected since this function is in acad.exe, and .dbx modules are not
supposed to be linked to acad.exe. If it's not a .dbx module, you need to
link to acad.lib. 🙂

Hi

Yes, it's from a DBX module.

Thanks. Have to work around it.
