[Mingw-users] undefined reference to 'InitCommonControlsEx@4'

[Ralph N. <rni...@se...>]

I cannot get my program to link - it starts like this, so I know I'm =
including the right headers...

#include <windows.h>
#include <commctrl.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include "resource.h"

I use a Make file to build it, which looks like this

all: testlist.exe

testlist.exe: testlist.cpp
	g++ -s -mwindows -lcomctl32 -D_WIN32_IE=3D0x0401 testlist.cpp -o =
testlist.exe

This is the output I get:

g++ -s -mwindows -lcomctl32 -D_WIN32_IE=3D0x0401 testlist.cpp -o =
testlist.exe
C:\DOCUME~1\rn\LOCALS~1\Temp/ccgNaaaa.o(.text$_ZN12MyWindowsDlg7DoModalEP=
6HWND__+0x35):testlist.cpp: undefined reference to =
`InitCommonControlsEx@4'
make: *** [testlist.exe] Error 1

I looked inside libcomctl32.a, and verified that the symbol =
'_InitCommonControlsEx@4', so everything seems like it should work, but =
I was unable to determine if the underscore was significant.

Thanks for any answers!
