Building a language pack.

graphil · 6th May 2003, 13:00

When building the language pack workspace, I got a linker error in Visual C++

LIBCMTD.lib(crt0.obj) :error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _main
Debug/lang_b.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

Everything else is fine, and my libraries seem to be OK, maybe they're out of date. I work with Visual C++ 6.00 and my LIBCMTD.LIB file is from 06/17/98.

Thanx in advance for your replies.

Compile in release mode. You don't really need debug mode here because it's all about the resources not the code.

Thank you, kichik, it seems to compile correctly, then I got another prob - oops, I did it again - The lang pack doesn't seem to work, i.e, it doesn't change anything, though I updated all the resources correctly. Still working on it.

Nice Day !

OK, for the guys who got the same problem, get Resource Hacker to edit and compile the resources.

It's a very useful tool for everyone who wants to work on resources. Res Hacker is freeware.
Thanx again to KICHIK.
