Symbol undefined? Linker error!

[el prinCipante]

I am a total novice. And granted this probably is a very simple
question, it still stops me from finishing my thesis. Thanks in
advance for any postings.

I am using a library routine and apparently I have all the necessarý
files to compile properly. But my compiler comes up with the following
message

link samain,,,user32+kernel32/noi;
OPTLINK (R) for Win32 Release 7.50B1

Does anyone know what this means!?

begin followup to el prinCipante:

samain.obj(samain)
Error 42: Symbol Undefined ?free_vector@@YAXPAMJJ@Z (void cdecl
free_vector(float *,long ,long ))
This looks like a mangled name in C++ style.
Does anyone know what this means!?

You are off-topic.

Apparently not. Or if you do have them, you're not using them
properly.
But my compiler comes up with the following
message

which means "I can't find which file this function is in".

Either
a) the file is in a library you don't have or
b) you compiled samain wrong (eg as C++ instead of c), and the names
are all mangled.

Either way, this is offtopic here. You should ask in a group
specialising in your compiler.
