GUID problem

[Ufit]

I can't figure it out - doing this

DEFINE_GUID(CLSID_MYCL,......);

I always get an error
'error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _CLSID_MYCL'

Why is that - I got lot's of GUIDs in separate header which
I include to my code. That's a standard windows header
not modified. What is going on with the compiler?

You need to ask in your compiler newsgroup. DEFINE_GUID is not a standard
construct, thus it is off-topic in comp.lang.c++. General solution to
"unresolved external" (or "undefined reference" or the like) linker errors
is to define the symbol reported. How, depends on the situation. Often
it's just a function that is missing its body (declared but not defined),
sometimes it's a missing library. Microsoft people who frequent
'microsoft.public.vc.language' would probably know for sure.
