This is really a question for the MinGW list at mingw.org. You're using the -mno-cygwin switch to gcc which means you're not using Cygwin. By definition, this fact makes the question off-topic for this list. If you google around a bit though, you'll probably find out why you get this problem. Setting UNICODE changes the provided entry point to wWinMainCRTStartup. You'll need to specify this entry point explicitly in your link line to get it to build properly.
Hi Larry, Thanks for the reply, unfortunately -mno-cygwin seems to be a bit of a step child, the MinGW group considers it a Cygwin topic, and the Cygwin group considers it a MinGW topic.
I did spend a fair bit of time using google, before posting to the group, unfortunately I was unable to find an answer, other than realising that I would need to change the entry point. I have tried various entry points: -e _wWinMainCRTStartup -e wWinMainCRTStartup -e WinMainCRTStartup etc. All of these give the error : "cannot find entry symbol .." as well as the undefined reference to [EMAIL PROTECTED]' error. Using -e _WinMainCRTStartup I don't get the "cannot find entry symbol ...", but still get the undefined reference to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have pretty much exhausted all the search terms I can think of in google, so any help would be appreciated. Regards, Clive
