November 20, 2014 msvc linker error: can't find kernel32.lib | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
I compiled ldc on Windows 7 following the instructions in the wiki, no issues there. I can compile D programs just fine with no linker errors only if I launch a visual studio 64 bit developer command prompt. However I want to use visualD to compile my programs. Visual studio doesn't even set the environment variables for the linker because I get the same "missing kernel32.lib" error. I tried reading vcvars64.bat, which is called when I launch the developer command prompt, to understand how the environment is set up, but I got totally lost trying to read it. Any suggestions on how I can permenantly set up my environment so visual studio's linker is happy? |

I guess you must add something like $(VCInstallDir)\lib\amd64 $(WindowsSdkDir)Lib\winv6.3\um\x64 to "Tools->Options->Projects and Solutions->Visual D Settings->LDC Directories->x64->Library paths". Especially the Windows SDK folder might be different for your installed SDK. |

Posted in reply to Rainer Schuetze | I figured it out, just needed to give the linker a few import paths. Thanks! |
