warning lnk4099: PDB 'vc80.pdb" was not found

Hello,

when compiling my project with MSVC++ 2005 and the latest Media SDK 3 beta, I'm getting these warnings:

A google search leads me to this:

Are you compiling the libmfx.lib with /Zi or /ZI? If so, would it be possible to compile the next release without /Zi and /ZI to fix these warnings?

Thanks!

Hi,

You are totally right, we used to compile with /zi. The MSDK 3.0 Beta3 update will be available very soon and will have the corrected options already.

Thank you for reporting this!

Thanks... :-)

We'reusing the latest version (it says 3.0.774.38156 in the release notes), and we're still getting these warnings. It would be nice if you guys could fix this. Thank you.

Hello,

Can you make sure you have re-linked you application with the libmfx.lib from the latest release?

Thanks,

Nina

Hi Nina,

thank you for your reply. The problem occurs when we link (during a rebuild) the Debug build, so it's libmfxmd.lib that's causing problems. I have just reinstalled the SDK from http://registrationcenter-download.intel.com/akdlm/irc_nas/2464/w_MSDK-2012_p_3.0.014_GOLD.zip . Here are the MD5 checksums if that helps:

I see the issue now. The problem is that compile options were fixed in libmfx.lib, but not in libmfxmd.lib you are using. Thanks for reporting this, we will fix in the upcoming Media SDK 2012 Gold Update.

Regards,

Nina

FYI, I still see this issue with VS2012 + libmfx.lib from Media SDK 2014 for Client.

I know Microsoft will fix this issue by allowing us to ignore this warning. Our project still stays on VS2012 for a while, though :-(

I hope Intel can simply provides PDB associated with this libmfx.lib, though.

It's a few years since the original post, yet this issue still occurs with libmfx.lib.

It would be great to have these noisy warning removed by intel since LNK4099 is not ignorable on VS2010 and earlier.

Another vote for fixing this.

libmfx is open source. Source files can be found at \MediaSDK\opensource\mfx_dispatch. You can build desired library yourself: for any vs/crt version, with or without debug symbols, etc.
