[Mingw-users] linking library

[nicw <nic...@vu...>]

Hi

I am new to C++ and am having trouble linking a canon sdk library (this
probably has a very simple solution). I am using the windows gcc complier
and a text editor. The code below is basically just trying to initialise and
terminate the SDK.

#include "EDSDK.h"
#include "EDSDKTypes.h"
#include "EDSDKErrors.h"
#include "EDSDK.lib"

void applicationRun()
{

// Initialise SDK

err=EdsInitializeSDK();
if(err==EDS_ERR_OK)
{
(isSDKLoaded)=true;
}

// Terminate SDL
if(isSDKLoaded)
{
EdsTerminateSDK();
}
}

The problem I am having is the complier doesnt seem to be recognising the
lib file and I am getting errors as below (which continue right to the end
of the lib file):

In file included from test2.cpp:4:
EDSDK.lib:1: error: expected unqualified-id before '!' token
EDSDK.lib:2: error: stray '`' in program In file included from test2.cpp:4:
EDSDK.lib:3:1: warning: null character(s) ignored
EDSDK.lib:3:5: warning: null character(s) ignored
EDSDK.lib:3: error: stray '\25' in program

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Nicola
