use a lib file with cvi 5.5 created by visual studio

[Lukio73]

I've crated a lib files with Visual Studio, then i've copied this file in my CVI project folder and i've created an h files with the functions definition.

When i try to complile my project i've the error      Undefined symbol '_Fattoriale' referenced in "Pumpe.c".
How i can do to use this lib file?

Thanks

Did you remember to use extern "C" in Visual Studio, for the name of the functions? This will prevent the C++ compiler from altering the function name ('name decoration', or 'name mangling') it uses in the resulting library. The CVI compiler (ANSI C) does not understand this process.

It's not enough just to put the lib in the same directory. You must also add the .lib file to your project.
