Unresolved external symbol symbol __imp_get_function_ptr when compiling a C++ MEX MATLAB API

I am trying to run one of the example codes from the CPP Mex Repository of Matlab R2021a in the VS2017 IDE. Specifically, I am running the phonebook.cpp one. I previously ran with no problems when compiling other solutions in VS2017 with the C Mex API following this guide. However, I get the following message when compiling phonebook.cpp:

Severity    Code    Description Project File    Line    Suppression State
Error   LNK2019 unresolved external symbol __imp_get_function_ptr referenced in function "int (__cdecl*__cdecl matlab::data::detail::resolveFunction<int (__cdecl*)(int,int,bool *)>(enum matlab::data::detail::FunctionType))(int,int,bool *)" (??$resolveFunction@P6AHHHPEA_N@Z@detail@data@matlab@@YAP6AHHHPEA_N@ZW4FunctionType@012@@Z) test    C:\Users\DuuMushishi\Documents\test.obj 1

I am not sure what library needs to be added or if the error is due to something else

I fixed the issue. Turns out I had to include in additional dependencies "libMatlabDataArray.lib" (in my case, located in C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2021a\extern\lib\win64\microsoft)
