winsock2.h and ws2tcpip.h linking error

[Ahmed Nasrallah]

Hello,

I've got a small problem where I'm creating a client using windows socket programming in my omnet project but I have a problem linking ws2tcpip.h and winsock2.h (see error below). I tried adding -L ws2_32 in the LIB part of the makefile but every time I build it, it gets erased. I am not sure how to solve this issue in the Omnet IDE using Ecplise.

I am using Omnet 5.6.2 on windows 10. 

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

You need to include the librarires in the project properties

project features -> OMNeT++ -> Makemake options -> Link -> more

Thank you very much for the information. It solved the issue and now it shows in the Makefile as well.
