Re: [xml] Linking to dll version of libxml2, et al. with VS 2008



Thanks so much, that fixed the problem. I would have thought that WinSock would have been one of the 
'default' libraries included by Visual Studio, but I guess not. I suppose that, since not every program uses 
the network, not every program needs to be linked against the socket library.

Hi Jeffrey,

However, I am getting a bunch of linker errors when building my projects,

These are WinSock functions; unrelated to MSVCRT. You need to make
sure that your application links to it (I think it's called
WS2_32.lib) in addition to system libraries like KERNEL32, USER23,
GDI32 etc. Maybe it's not added automatically to a new project.

Additionally, I'm getting a warning (which might be related?):



warning LNK4098: defaultlib 'MSVCRT' conflicts with use of other libs; use
/NODEFAULTLIB:library

You probably need to ensure that your project is compiled with the
same runtime library that was used with libxml2/iconv/zlib. Check the
readme files that came with your binaries.


Hope this helps,

Csaba
