Unable to use tesseract api installed with a nuget pkg

[sonu sainju]

Hi,

I followed instruction in https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/wiki/Compiling#windows to build tesseract and use it in vs2015 project. After installing tesseract via vcpkg, I exported it as a nuget pkg and added it to my project like any other nuget pkg but I am getting link errors like:

Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State

Error LNK2001 unresolved external symbol closesocket Project1 c:\Users\sonu's\documents\visual studio 2015\Projects\Project1\Project1\tesseract305.lib(svutil.cpp.obj) 1

Error LNK2001 unresolved external symbol connect Project1 c:\Users\sonu's\documents\visual studio 2015\Projects\Project1\Project1\tesseract305.lib(svutil.cpp.obj) 1

Error LNK2001 unresolved external symbol htons Project1 c:\Users\sonu's\documents\visual studio 2015\Projects\Project1\Project1\tesseract305.lib(svutil.cpp.obj) 1

...

Is there something I have missed? Has anybody tried using tesseract api this way in vs 2015?

Did you build using cppan and cmake?

Hey Shree, Thanks for replying. No I didn't build using cppan and cmake. I used vcpkg install command. Isn't vcpkg supposed to acquire and install everything?

I don't use visual studio. However I know that we support vs installation via cppan cmake. Please follow those directions.
