Help understanding linking errors

[cloudinsky]

Hey all,
I'm trying to write some C++ code for windows 7 which will connect to a mobile broadband network. When I run the first example at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee677092(v=VS.85).aspx I get the following when compiling within visual studio:

1>testII.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _CLSID_MbnInterfaceManager
1>testII.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _IID_IMbnInterfaceManager

or when I compile with the "cl" command at the command prompt I get:

test.cpp
Microsoft (R) Incremental Linker Version 10.00.30319.01
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

/out:test.exe
test.obj
test.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _CLSID_MbnInterfaceManager referenced in function _main
test.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _IID_IMbnInterfaceManager referenced in function _main
test.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals


It would seem I need to link so some library somewhere, can anyone tell me which library and how to link it? Do these errors have anything to do with the mbnapi.idl requirement?

Thanks a lot, appreciate it

It looks like you have missing a library from your link, possibly WWanAPI.lib

@Banfa
Thanks for the suggestion Banfa, though there is no WWanAPI.lib to my knowledge, only WWanAPI.dll, any thoughts?

Solved it! What you need to do is include mbnapi_uuid.lib, thanks again for the tip Banfa.
