Help w/ DLL: Error

carb · Post by **carb** » Wed Jan 14, 2004 4:36 pm

I get the following error when ever I successfully compile, but try to run an Irrlicht app (with the irrlicht.dll file in the proper directory):

_ZN3irr12createDeviceENS_5video11EDriverTypeERKNS_4core11dimension2dIiEEjbbPNS_14EventReceiverE could not be located in the dynamic link library Irrlicht.dll

Does this mean the .dll is borked, or what?

Linking with wrong version of the lib's i guess.
For example you could be linking with 0.4.0 and running with the 0.4.2 dll.

or, you could be using a .DLL from the wrong compiler-- ie: you compiled in DevCpp, and you're using the MSVC .DLL

As far as I can tell windows with MinGW gcc doesnt understand the visualstudio versions but will compile devcpp, and like they said later make sure it can find the devcpp dll. On mine loading the quake map simply crashes with no explaination with this method so good luck.
