copied!<p>The error is telling you the problem. It cannot find gtest.lib. I just provided a <a href="https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/22754/sscce-how-to-provide-examples-for-programming-questions">SSCCE</a> to show this does work. First read over the <a href="http://code.google.com/p/googletest/wiki/Documentation" rel="nofollow noreferrer">gtest documentation</a> and note you will need to build the libraries from source. When doing so, while using MSVC, you'll encounter errors because MSVC does not support something to do with <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8274588/c2977-stdtuple-too-many-template-arguments-msvc11">variadics</a>? I used <a href="http://code.google.com/p/googletest/issues/detail?id=412" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this solution</a> and will outline it here in spirit of not providing the answer via links.</p> <p>Step 1: Download <a href="http://code.google.com/p/googletest/downloads/list" rel="nofollow noreferrer">gtest 1.6</a></p> <p>Step 2: Extract to directory, DIR.</p> <p>Step 3: Navigate to DIR/msvc</p> <p>Step 4: Double click gtest-md.sln and migrate if you need to. You'll get some warnings.</p> <p>Step 5: For <strong>each</strong> project in the solution, right click and add this to preprocessor definitions in C/C++. <code>_VARIADIC_MAX=10</code></p> <p>Step 6: Build Solutions.</p> <p>Step 7: Navigate to <code>DIR/msvc/gtest-md/Debug/</code> This folder has the gtestd.lib as well as gtest-main-mdd.lib file. I took the entire contents of <code>Debug</code> pasted it in a new folder <code>DIR/lib</code>. </p> <p>Step 8: Create a new blank sol and a new blank project. Add a new blank .cpp. </p> <p>Step 9: Goto <code>Project->Properties->vc++ directories</code> Add <code>DIR/Include</code> under the additional include libraries and the <code>DIR/lib</code> under the additional library dependencies. </p> <p>Step 10: Goto <code>Linker->Input</code> and under additional dependencies add <code>gtestd.lib</code>. </p> <p>Step 11: Goto <code>C/C++->Preprocessor</code> and under preprocessor definitions add <code>_VARIADIC_MAX=10</code></p> <p>Step 12: In source add</p> <pre><code>#include <gtest/gtest.h> //Or wherever your header file seems to be int main() { return 0; } </code></pre> <p>This is what I did and I have created a SSCCE for this library. If you are not then you need to consider if you created the .lib incorrectly or haven't pointed msvc towards the right directory for the library. </p>
