gif2avi.zip Source Code dwnld fr smorgasbordet -- .... Building Problems

[EdPellesC99]

  Hi,

  Though I do not have problems building the other source code packages, I have errors galore.
Has any one else been able to simply build the project?

  I would like to explore this work, as I could use it!

  Thanks in advance.

Try to insert this to gif2avi.h

Code Select Expand

typedef unsigned long _fsize_t;


Code Select Expand

#ifndef UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER
#define UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(P) (P)
#endif

   Thanks Timo,

 One error:

gif2avi.h(56): error #1050: Redefinition of macro 'UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER'.

But I am afraid I do not understand how to use this work.

It produced three .obj files, no executables.

Up until now (in my personal crude work) I have simply included extra .c files in my main.c file and .... donot compile .obj files and link them ..... I have just not gotten into that yet.

Anyway .... what do I do now?  

How do I use this work to convert a .gif to an .avi?

thanks much

    Ok......,   

  I now inserted:
#ifndef UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER
#define UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(P) (P)
#endif

 So Here are my results :

POLINK: error: Unresolved external symbol '_ICSendMessage@16'.
POLINK: fatal error: 1 unresolved external(s).
*** Error code: 1 ***
Done.

I think I can get rid of the warnings, but any ideas on the "POLINK: error: Unresolved external symbol '_ICSendMessage@16'."

Is there a library missing in the source code ppj file? I searched in the help contents but no topics found.

Thanks, Ed

Insert vfw32.lib to project.

Wow !

   Project Built in a split second. Had my first .gif converted within one minute.

   Thanks a lot Timo. 

  Now I can go play with Pelle's cool toy !
