Hello,

I have trouble linking the ImageMagick lib files in my program that uses the Visual Studio MSVC 2015 compiler. Here are the steps I have followed:

I have compiled the static MT runtimes by using the "configure.exe" utility and built in Visual Studio the solution it generated: VisualStaticMT.sln. This creates lib files such as "CORE_RL_Magick++_.lib" in C:\ImageMagick-6.9.3-2\VisualMagick\lib.

In my C++11 program, the configuration relevant to ImageMagick is (I use QtCreator, but with the MSVC2015 compiler):

Code: Select all

INCLUDEPATH += \
    C:\ImageMagick-6.9.3-2\ImageMagick\Magick++\lib \
    C:\ImageMagick-6.9.3-2\ImageMagick \

LIBS += \
    -lC:\ImageMagick-6.9.3-2\VisualMagick\lib\CORE_RL_Magick++_ \
    -lC:\ImageMagick-6.9.3-2\VisualMagick\lib\CORE_RL_wand_ \
    -lC:\ImageMagick-6.9.3-2\VisualMagick\lib\CORE_RL_magick_

QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += \
    -DMAGICKCORE_HDRI_ENABLE=0 \
    -DMAGICKCORE_QUANTUM_DEPTH=16

A piece of the program contains:

Code: Select all

#include <Magick++.h>

...

Magick::Image img;
img = Magick::Image(filename);

When compiling I get link errors:

release\corr.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 6 unresolved externals

The "dllimport" error suprises me, as I think there should be no DLL involved with the "static MT runtimes" I am using.

Any idea on how I could solve the problem?

Thanks.
