I am trying to port an external written for OSx to the windows platform.
Although it compiles fine, it gives me link errors, which I cannot resolve.
I have tried to build example externals with success.
I have checked my include path in link settings and it contains
“…..c74supportmax-includes”;”…..c74supportmsp-includes”
which the link errors are about.

A part of the log file is shown below. Can you please advise me? I would
appreciate any pointers

error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _ampdb
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _z_dsp_setup
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _dsp_addv
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _sys_getsr
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _z_add_signalmethod
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _z_dsp_free

or some 3rd party dll. The linker can not resolve that symbol
because the source does not exist. Alternately, they may be older cycling
SDK calls.
