library issue

Hi,

Im new to C++ and im trying to write a Windows GUI program.

At the moment i have a class the uses libxml (from linux) windows port
to parse an xml file however when i link the source into my other
source files, the linker fails with unresolved symbol errors.

What's interesting is how the only unresolved symbols are function
calls, not variable types.

Can anyone diagnose the problem, write back if more info is needed.

Im using mingw on windows 2000.

Many thanks,
Brilte

Link errors are often off-topic here since they are usually caused by some
mistake made while setting up your project. And projects have nothing to
do with C++ _language_.

Types are not symbols. They exist only during compile-time.
Can anyone diagnose the problem, write back if more info is needed.
Please post to the right newsgroup.

I recommend comp.os.ms-windows.program mer.win32, but others may have more
suggestions, so check back soon.

That is why I recommend the Windows programming newsgroup.

With XML becoming the de facto data description standard, I am extremely surprised that there is no movement towards standardizing an xml library API for use with C and C++. Personally I have been working with libxml2 (www.gnome.org) for a while now, and I am quite comfortable with it. I believe that libxml2 is a good start, but I think a slimmer version of libxml2 should be standardized. Any thoughts?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
