system error 09 Jul 2017, 18:51

Just finished downloading VS2017 community.

I can't no longer link my code with some of the VS2017 "libs" like I used to with previous releases of VS after upgrading it. Looks like VS2017 have a radically different ideas on how to do the LINKing. Have anybody successfully linked the 64-bit COFF objects to, for example, "msvcrt.lib" using VS2017 / SDK components? Would you share you configs? I have only 1 "msvcrt.lib" found out of the installation folders and it doesn't work with normal "LINK" scripts like I used to. (I have VS2017 Community with full install, except for the mobile components). And what's with this annoying missing "UUID.LIB" linker error?

Note: the DLL works fine though.

Really doubt this would be relevant, but I updated to VS 2017 community a while back when converting my COFFs from 32->64 bit and had to change my (probably sloppy) link script:

Code:

REM CALL "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\Common7\Tools\VsDevCmd.bat"
CALL "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\Common7\Tools\VsDevCmd.bat"
CALL "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat" AMD64
cd C:\Asm
cl /c /EHsc /Gd cpp.cpp /I"C:\Program Files (x86)\AMD APP SDK\3.0\include"
link /LARGEADDRESSAWARE /MACHINE:X64 /SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS /OUT:Executable.exe /ENTRY:start Executable.obj cpp.obj "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Lib\10.0.15063.0\um\x64\User32.Lib" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Lib\10.0.15063.0\um\x64\Kernel32.Lib" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Lib\10.0.15063.0\um\x64\d3d11.lib" "C:\Program Files (x86)\AMD APP SDK\3.0\lib\x86_64\OpenCL.lib"  /LIBPATH:"C:\Program Files (x86)\AMD APP SDK\3.0\lib\x86_64"
Executable.exe

I don't use the msvcrt.lib directly, but ucrt.lib is here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Lib\10.0.15063.0\ucrt\x64.

My setup is pretty minimal but just got through some linking nightmares recently myself. Good luck!

I forgot about this thread.

Thanks for helping out, donn. I'll give "ucrt.lib" it a try.
