unresolved external symbol while creating dll by Aspen Plus Simulation Engine because of missing IMSL library

[Niroj_T_]

Dear everyone 

     I am a new user of intel fortran compiler. I want to creat .dll by using Aspen Plus Simulation Engine. I also install Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and Intel Visual Fortran Compiler V10.1.0.03 including to IMSL v7.0. I followed the way of Configuring for Use from Microsoft Visual Studio for linking the path to IMSL libraries. But I got the error which showed me that IMSL was not used. 

Here is the error I got.

I am very proud if you would like to help me.

Say a lot of thank you to you all.

In addition to specifying to the linker where to find IMSL libraries, you also need to specify which IMSL libraries should be searched. For example, imsl_dll.lib should perhaps be among the additional libraries to link. See your IMSL-7 documentation for details.

[Steven_L_Intel1]

Please note that IMSL 7 isn't yet provided through Intel (that will change this week.)  If you have IMSL 7 now, you got it from Rogue Wave. The instructions in our article apply to the version of IMSL we supply and might not work with a different one.

That said, mecej4 is correct in that you also need to add something to tell the linker which IMSL libraries you want.
