Problem linking with tinyxml_STL in VC2005

How we all doin? I'd like to use TinyXML in my project, and tinyxml_STL compiles under VC2005 just fine (with warnings but no errors). The test programs seem to work as well. However, it does not want to link with my program. Please help if you can.
My code doesn't seem to matter, it's purely a linker problem. I have the right include directory, so it knows where to find the header. I added the .lib file to my project, so it has that. And I'm not using /NODEFAULTLIB for anything at this point, so this is fairly pure. However, as soon as I add even one line of tinyxml code, this is what I get:
------ Build started: Project: BasicShooter, Configuration: Release Win32 ------

Yeah.
Again, any help is appreciated. Thank you ahead of time.
Benji.
I'm not 100% sure because I don't have 2005 handy, but that looks to me like the old C++ code generation/runtime lib choice.
Personally, I always link tinyxml directly as object files, not as a .lib. Presuming that you are building the two in separate projects, go to each and make sure they use the same C++ "code generation"/runtime lib choice.

Thanks, Ellers. I went ahead and put all the necessary source and header files from tinyxml into my project, and that did the trick. Problem solved.
Respectfully submitted,
Benji
Cool - thanks for the update.
Building as a lib should work fine - just get the C++ code gen option aligned to the same in both projects.
Glad it helped :)
