2.successfully built crypto++ without any errors.

3.i got cryptlib.lib object file library in crypto++-->win32-->output-->debug-->cryptlib.lib.

4.i opened a new project win32 console application empty project and added anew sheet named Tests.cpp.

5. i wrote my code and incuded all files successfully 

6. i removed link errors and set runtime library as MTd.

7.and set vc++ directories-->include , source ,library directories path as ...\cryptlib.lib.

8.c/c++ -->additional include directories path as...\cryptlib.lib.

9.linker -->input-->additional dependencies path as...\cryptlib.lib.

10.but still i am getting link error lnk1104 as cannot open file.

where i am doing wrong?? how can i remove this error.

In  Linker->Input->AdditionalDependencies, You need to add only the library name ("cryptlib.lib"); 

And then in Linker->Input->General, you add the  path to the file (start trying with the full path).

I think in Additional dependencies you need to add full path of cryptlib.lib (which is c:\users\arun kumar\desktop\file\criptopp\criptopp\Tests\cryptopp\win32\output\debug\cryptlib.lib)

So you actually need to check if this file is present on this path( 'cryptopp' is the compiled project(folder) if i am not wrong which is placed inside your own project & is linked with it?)

Got the same problem whatever I add the full path of cryptlib.lib or file name with additional directory in Linker/input/general.

 "Error LNK1104 cannot open file 'cryptopp.lib' WindowsRuntimeComponent1"

Any idea how to fix this ?

Thanks,
