Hi,
As part of migration of a 32 bit project to 64 bit i had to build a projectwhich is having only .idl files. I am not so familiar with COM programming.
The build goes fine in 32 bit but is giving the following errors in 64 bit build. ( build is bone on a 32 bit after installing 64 bit compiler)

1)

VB

Error   1   error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol basedataobj_ProxyFileInfo C:\workspace\cominterfaces\basedataobj_dlldata.obj   1

2)

VB

Error   2   fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals C:\workspace\cominterfaces\basedataobjps.dll

3)

VB

Error   3   fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\x86_amd64\link.EXE"' : return code '0x460'   NMAKE

The build seems to be going fine and it generates all the 4 files (.h,_i.c,_p.c,_dlldata.c)
But the post build step "nmake /f $(InputName)ps.mk" seems to be creating this error.

can any one guide me in finding how to resolve this issue.
WBR,
sabu

I think Error message 1 is pretty clear. You have a reference to the item basedataobj_ProxyFileInfo in file C:\workspace\cominterfaces\basedataobj_dlldata.obj which is not externally defined anywhere. Check the source to find the reference and see if you can discover where the definition should be.
