I followed the tutorial here:https://cmusphinx.github.io/wiki/tutorialpocketsphinx/ , built sphinxbase and cmusphinx myself from visual studio 2017 and tried to run. When I did I got this in the command prompt:

I ran this on visual studios 2017 with a 64 bit windows 10 computer. How do I fix this?

[Nickolay V. Shmyrev]

Make sure sphinxbase and pocketsphinx use the same runtime.

[dev10234]

I've double checked and I am sure that they are using the same runtime. I've also noticed that when I build my project it says:
'Speech_Recognition.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\winmmbase.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.
Does this have anything to do with it?

[Scott Hawkins]

I had the same problem. Did you ever get it to work?
