Preview: Linking Error when trying static linking VS9 express
I'm trying to compile a simple application in visual studio 2008 express based on Poco::Process. But I'm getting linking errors.
Here is my simple code configured as console application:
#include "Poco/Foundation.h"
#include "Poco/Process.h"
#include "Poco/Pipe.h"
#include "Poco/PipeStream.h"
using Poco::Process;
using Poco::ProcessHandle;
using Poco::Pipe;
using Poco::PipeInputStream;
using Poco::PipeOutputStream;
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
std::string cmd = "hostname";
std::vector<std::string> args;
args.push_back("--help");
ProcessHandle ph = Process::launch(cmd, args);
int rc = ph.wait();
return 0;
}
I added the preprocess flags:
Foundation_EXPORTS
POCO_STATIC
PCRE_STATIC
And I'm linking with:
PocoFoundationmt.lib
with Multi-threaded Debug DLL (/MDd) defined, but I'm getting this linking error:

What im doing wrong here ?
Thanks for helping
Make sure that you build both the Poco libs and your project against the same C runtime (static/dynamic, debug/release, multithreaded).
The library "PocoFoundationmt.lib" which you are using is built with "release static" mode. From the project you ran looks like you need debug version of library which should be "PocoFoundationmtd.lib".
As you can see from the error log there is a conflict in linking. That is you said compiler the runtime-library is MDd, but you are linking to a release version library. Make sure in your ProjectProperties->Linker you are not linking to anyother libraries and do link to "PocoFoundationmtd.lib". Make sure to choose "Debug" instead of "Release" at top(near run button) of your project.Also Define POCO_STATIC.
I just did this, as Chadwick mentioned, you don't need the Foundation_EXPORTS preprocessor flag.
Also if you set the additional lib directory to poco lib, you don't need to specify the type of dll i.e. MT, Debug etc.
You only need POCO_STATIC as the preprocessor flag.
