LNK1181:Can not open input file vpxmd.lib

[Vaibhav Khandelwal]

Hi

I am trying to compile UDPSAMPLE project from the webmproject site.
In Visual Studio 2005, it is showing this linking error;

LNK1181:Can not open input file vpxmd.lib

What is this vpxmd library file and what is it used for?

The visual studio project itself seem to contain settings to include
this library by default.

I tried searching for it but could not find much information about it
and could not remove this error.

I have only vpxmtd.lib and vpxmt.lib in my lib folder in Win32 but no
vpxmd.lib.

where can i get this library from to remove the linker error?


Thanks and regards,
Vaibhav

Hi Sandeep

Thanks for your reply.
I am using visual studio 2005, isn't there any other way out of this
problem ?
Also, I am still not clear as to what exactly is the reason behind
this error :(

Follow link

http://code.google.com/p/webm/downloads/list

vpx-vp8-debug-src-x86-win32mt-VS9-v0.9.6.1.zip

vs9 stands for Visual Studio 2009 ..

Build is also possilbe on VS2008.

U need to Yasm.exe for windows versions as some part of the code is in Assembly.

How can u build & run a higher version(vs2009) on a lower version (VS2005)..

Lets wait and see if any others give a better answer fro this..

Hi Vaibhav,

I think you can just modify the udpsample projects to link to
vpxmt.lib instead. They're the same library, the mt one uses the
static c runtime so it is easier to distribute. We should probably
update the udpsample projects to use that by default, so you can just
download the binary build for windows and plug it in.

Hi Sandeep and John.

Both of you have my monday morning quite wonderful!!(quite a rare
feat)
I have been able to compile the project successfully and am just
starting to work ahead on this.

Thanks a lot for your timely help :)

You refer to a windows binary build of vpxmt.lib... where is this and which version should work for udpsample? Thanks so much in advance!
