I give up...

so I've been working with irrlicht for a few months now, and just recently upgraded to the new 1.6 (not sure if this even applies) but right now I have an issue that when I try to compile I get a box that says:

"The procedure entry point createDevice could not be located in the dynamic link library Irrlicht.dll"

I've tryd compiling other irrlicht examples, and it seems only examples that contain multiple header files that use irrlicht (such as mine) get this error, but the example files that keep the entire program in one main.cpp file compile just fine.

Can anybody help me with this!!

Thanks so much in advance!

EDIT: incase it helps... the only reason I could come up with is the fact I'm having to create a new Driver/SceneManager/Device in a few of my headers, but I delete them at the end of each header. I know it would be much more optimized to have only one declaration of each, but I dont know how... everytime I try to read from another header in my project I get an error saying the file doesn't exsist.. only the main.cpp file seems to be able to read these headers... please help!!

Are you using the right DLL? You seem to have compiled something that searche a function in the DLL that doesnt exist.

Check the version of the DLL your using with your compiled binary.

it sounds like you using 1.6 header/library files and 1.5 (or less) Irrlicht.dll

make sure that you match them up properly, or this is the error you will get.
