Concerning Kernel 32.lib

Post by AL73 » Wed Aug 13, 2003 12:44 pm

I'm very new to all this so pls bear with me...
I just dl'd the MacroQuest Latest Nightly zip file last night august 12th 2003.
I have Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 installed on my computer.
I ran Macroquest.dsw and Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 popped up
I went to Build and compiled Macroquest.cpp

Code: Select all

--------------------Configuration: MacroQuest - Win32 Debug-------------------- 
Compiling... 
Skipping... (no relevant changes detected) 
MacroQuest.cpp 

MacroQuest.obj - 0 error(s), 0 warning(s)



I then went to build and Build Macroquest.exe
and this error showed up

Code: Select all

--------------------Configuration: MacroQuest - Win32 Debug--------------------
Linking...
LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "kernel32.lib"
Error executing link.exe.

MacroQuest.exe - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

Now like I mentioned before i'm new to all this so if anyone is willing to help me out a bit i'd be very appreciative.

The error is self-explanatory. Your installation of VC6 is bad and does not include kernel32.lib.

So what you're saying is I'll have to reinstall MVC 6 to make it all work?
