  1. POKeep generating linker and library errors
    text
    copied!<p>I tried compiling/building the google test samples but I decided to try something simplifier instead when I couldn't get the samples to work. I found this video that details how to set up the unit tests and run them using google test (but from the command line instead): <a href="http://vimeo.com/53690756" rel="nofollow">http://vimeo.com/53690756</a></p> <p>However, assuming the source code is correctly implemented and I went to my project's properties and set the C/C++'s Additional Include Directories to the g-test-1.6.0 include directory and the Linker's Additional library directories to the same g-test-1.6.0 include directory. However, Linker > Input > Additional Dependencies, I wrote gtestd.lib. </p> <p>The only error I get is 101 error LNK1103: cannot open file 'gtestd.lib', I guess what I didn't get from the video is how they generated that static library file? When I ran the build using debug previously on another project, I was able to get a gtestd.lib file under Debug and I tried to include that file under the g-test-1.6.0 include directory but then I got 65 linker errors instead. </p> <p>Essentially, what I'm asking is how to set up google test in Visual Studio 2010 without getting a library or linker error? Where do I get the proper version of gtest.lib or gtestd.lib and where should I place that library file so it's found? </p> <p>Here are a few of the linker errors I'm receiving: </p> <pre><code>Warning 65 warning LNK4098: defaultlib 'MSVCRTD' conflicts with use of other libs;
