Hi,
Converting projects from CVF, and having problems linking to libraries that worked ok under CVF 6. IVF does find the library ok, but can't seem to access symbols properly.
PROGRAM japi_test
INTERFACE
LOGICAL FUNCTION j_start()
END FUNCTION
END INTERFACE
IF( .NOT. j_start()) THEN
PRINT *, "can't connect to JAPI Kernel"
END IF
END PROGRAM japi_test
This compiles fine but the linker reports
main.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _J_START referenced in function _MAIN__
Debug/f90_test.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
The functionis indeed present in the import library (JAPI.LIB) and its name (_J_START) agrees with the one in the .OBJ file.
Compare result of dumpbin /LINKERMEMBER:1 japi.lib:

This same source and import library file compile/link fine in CVF. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks much, Rolf
