Visual Studio External Dependencies Symbol error

I am trying to compile a program where the header files are located in External Dependencies folder inside VS Solution. Now for these header files, I have included source files, and when I right click go to definition at each function in header files, it jumps to the function definition in the source file. But when I compile the code, it gives me unresolved external symbol error. Why is this the case?

The "Go to definition" feature of IntelliSence have nothing to do with compiler (or linker) itself. You need to make sure that source files are compiled and linked to your program. Post more details to get more detailed answer.
