Visual Studio 2010 library linking errors

Question

I got the following linking errors when I tried to use DCMTK (/MT) library in my project. I am sure that the errors are related to ws2_32.lib wsock32.lib netapi32.lib of VS2010. But I have already added these three libs to the project property. You can see the libs had been searched as shown below. The libs are in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\lib. order problem? Any suggestion?

Answer 1

Looks like you aren't linking in Advapi32.lib. Add that to Linker -> Input -> Additional Dependencies in your project properties. Don't forget to add it for all of your project configurations (select "All Configurations" and "All Platforms" from the Configuration and Platform dropdowns, respectively).
