Hi ,
I am creating a new project using clips.This is my code :

#include "stdio.h"
#include "clips.h"
void iniz()
{
void InitializeEnvironment ();
Load ("rpm.clp");
Reset ();
Run(-1L);
}

My Project settings are :

C/C++ ->General->Additional Include Directories:-

C:\Documents and Settings\Richa\Desktop\ClipsCheck\Source\CLIPS
C:\Documents and Settings\Richa\Desktop\ClipsCheck\Source\Interface
..............................................................................................................................
Linker ->General->Additional Library Directories:-

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\PlatformSDK\Lib"

Linker ->Input->Additional Dependencies:-

odbc32.lib odbccp32.lib comctl32.lib
...............................................................................................................................
But when i am building this ,getting following errors...

1>main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
_GetCurrentEnvironment
1>main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _EnvReset
1>main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _EnvLoad
1>main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _EnvRun
1>MSVCRT.lib(crtexew.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
_WinMain@16
1>C:\Documents and Settings\Richa\Desktop\ClipsCheck\Release
\ClipsCheck.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 5 unresolved externals
1>Build log was saved at "file://c:\Documents and Settings\Richa
\Desktop\ClipsCheck\Release\BuildLog.htm"
1>ClipsCheck - 6 error(s), 0 warning(s)

How can I fix this error?What are the causes for this type of error?

Did you include the CLIPS source files (the one's ending in .c) to
your project?

Ok.
After adding all Source files these errors are occurring

MSVCRT.lib(crtexew.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
_WinMain@16
1>C:\Documents and Settings\Richa\Desktop\ClipsCheck\Release

\ClipsCheck.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

I added WinMain also from Interface but prompt is not working.But
previous error is solved.

Tell me that how can i pass the Output of CLIPS Rules project to any C
Project?
How to link between them so that my C Project takes the Output of
CLIPS as its INPUT?

Don't add the source files for the Windows interface, just the CLIPS
source files. Refer to section 2 of the Advanced Programming Guide for
which files belong to CLIPS.
