Linking problem

[noe]

Hello,

I have linked a '.c' file and I have obtained next fail:

C:\prueba2\sfilter>build -cZ
BUILD: Object root set to: ==> objchk
BUILD: Adding /Y to COPYCMD so xcopy ops won't hang.
BUILD: /i switch ignored
BUILD: Compile and Link for i386
BUILD: Examining c:\prueba2\sfilter directory for files to compile.
BUILD: Compiling c:\prueba2\sfilter directory
Compiling - sfilter.rc for i386
Compiling - sfilter.c for i386
BUILD: Linking c:\prueba2\sfilter directory
Linking Executable - objchk\i386\sfilter.sys for i386
sfilter.obj() : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__malloc
referenc
ed in function _SfFastIoRead@32
objchk\i386\sfilter.sys() : error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
BUILD: Done

3 files compiled
1 executable built - 2 Errors



I think that the fail is because of 'malloc' function but I have included
'stdlib.h' file. Does someone know what the problem is?

Greetings from a sunny Madrid.

This is a Microsoft C specific error so you should consult a
Microsoft C newsgroup.

Please verify if the .lib/.obj file containing the symbol __imp__malloc
is getting linked with the executable. Include just includes the header
file in the source code for the function protypes etc.
