How to find which library contains which function?

[Mellisa]

Hi,

I'm new to IPP. This question might sound a little dumb. But please help.

I'm having some linking errors because I didn't include the correct library which contains the functions I'm using in my makefile. the function I'm using is labelmarkers() to do the 2D labeling.

Can anyone tell me which library I should link to?

And more generally, how doI know which library contains which functions?

Thanks.

Hi,

labelmarker is a computer vision function. For static linking, you can choose ippcvemerged.lib ippcvmerged.lib
For dynamically linking, choose ippcv.lib

The followingarticles may help you findwhich librariesneededin your application:

Hi Chao,

Thank you very much for your reply. That really helps a lot.

You can use the following command line program to find strings in binary files. When your linker complains, navigate to the IPP/UMC directory with the LIB files, and use the below to find the relevant LIB file.

Type "stringfind -sUndefinedGlobalFunctionName *.lib". Be sure to enter the fully qualified function name for "UndefinedGlobalFunctionName", including all at-signs "@" and relevant characters.

#include

#define MIN_LEN 8

int main(int argc,char **argv)
{
DWORD dwMinLen=MIN_LEN;
char cData;
char szText[MAX_LEN];
char szSearchString[MAX_LEN];
WIN32_FIND_DATA FindData;
FILE *fp;

szSearchString[0] = 0;
for (int argn = 1; argn < argc; argn++)
switch (argv[argn][0])
{
case '-' :
switch (argv[argn][1])
{
case 'm' :
sscanf(&argv[argn][2],"%u",&dwMinLen);
break;
case 's' :
strcpy_s(szSearchString, sizeof(szSearchString), &argv[argn][2]);
break;
default :
fputs("Usage : StringFind [-m] -s

break;
}
break;

fputs("Usage : StringFind [-m] -s file1...n",stderr);

}

HANDLE hFind = FindFirstFile(argv[argn], &FindData);
if (hFind == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{
LPVOID errmsg;

DWORD dwTextLen = 0;
while (cData = fgetc(fp), !feof(fp))
