Re: [Gaul-devel] More guide.

[Stewart A. <ste...@gm...>]

Hi Ali,

The key to solving this problem is that your test app is compiled as
C++, but the GAUL library is compiled as C. The calling conventions of
these are, by default, incompatible due to C++ "name mangling".

A simple solution is to set the properties of your project to compile
as C.  Another solution is to rename your TESTgaul.cpp to TESTgaul.c,
as the Visual C++ compiler will then consider the code as C by
default. A better solution, probably, is to write your code so the C++
compiler knows that it is linking C code, not C++.  This can be done
by replacing:

#include "gaul.h"

with:

extern "C" {
#include "gaul.h"
}

I hope that works for you,
Stewart.
