I am trying to use the OpenLDAP client library from my VC++ code.
I downloaded the Cygwin OpenLDAP dlls and header files. I used a utility called implib32 to generate lib files for the dlls.
I linked the project to use the OpenLDAP lib files. However it doesn't build. I get the following errors
unresolved external symbol _ldap_value_free unresolved external symbol _ldap_next_attribute unresolved external symbol _ldap_get_values unresolved external symbol _ldap_first_attribute unresolved external symbol _ldap_search unresolved external symbol _ldap_abandon unresolved external symbol _ldap_bind unresolved external symbol _ldap_open unresolved external symbol _ldap_unbind_s unresolved external symbol _ldap_result
It looks like a name mangling problem to me. I added the extern C in the header files to prevent name mangling with no luck. I am new to cygwin and not sure how to proceed from here.
Can someone explain if there is something different to be done when linking cygwin dlls from VC++ code.
TIA
