Link Errors for nng in vs2019

[foroughmajidi]

I am trying to build a nanomsg next gen (https://github.com/nanomsg/nng) on a windows box. I am using VS2019.
I am getting link errors.
the Linker/General/Additional Library Directories is:F:\nng-1.2.5\build
The .h files are read fine. But I am getting the following link errors:

These are my VS2019 settings (x64 .lib and x64 project).

at the end I should say that I built nng-1.2.5 as the following:

1-Download/clone NNG source
2-create Command Prompt suitable for Visual Studio:
Run x64 Visual Studio Developer Command Prompt to create a 64-bit library
3- then put cmake and Ninja in PATH environment variable
Run:
4-mkdir build && cd build
5-cmake -G Ninja -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
6-ninja
please help me how to solve this problem;
thanks

Is the error in building NNG itself, or in trying to build your program(s) that use it?

(For the record, I build NNG on Windows all the time with the VS compilers. I do it from the command line though, and not in the VS GUI. I have roughly zero experience with the VS GUI.)

_imp_xx means dynamic link, however your nng is build by static.

How to resolve:
right-click your vs project, properties-->C++-->Preprocessor--> Add NNG_STATIC_LIB

[jimmybutler1201]

it's not nng's problem, it's your project config

I had done it in the way you said but it didn't work

I built nng and got nng.lib and nng.dll but when adding them in my project ,I got those errors that attached in first message

I built nng similar to your way in command line but my project was built in VS GUI

[foroughmajidi]

I had done all settings and errors are related to nng
Is there any more settings required?

[jimmybutler1201]

if nng MT, then your project MT
if MTd ... MTd
...
it must be the same.

[gdamore]

Yes. I really need to have these flags inherited in the cmake parlance. The current way NNG does this is a bit hackish, and as noted here, error prone. (There's already a ticket filed for this. I probably won't fix for 1.3, but probably in 1.4.)

[gdamore]

I'm going to close this particular ticket, since it's clear that the problem doesn't represent a bug in NNG. (Modulo that other ticket I just referenced.)
