Hi, I'm traing to read a row from a table using visual studio 2008 and libpq. I'm having problem with getting a int from a querry result, below im pasting my code struct subjects_group { unsigned long id; std::string name; }; list<subjects_group> QS_PQsql::getGroups() { list<subjects_group> lista; subjects_group temp; char *iptr; res = PQexec(conn, "SELECT * FROM subjects_group"); if( PQresultStatus(res) != PGRES_TUPLES_OK ) { PQclear(res); return lista; } iptr = PQgetvalue(res,0,0); temp.id = ntohl(*(uint32_t*)iptr); //here is line that causing troubles it gives me a several linker error temp.name = PQgetvalue(res,0,1); lista.push_back(temp); return lista; } the errors that i've received: 1>QS_PQsql.obj : error LNK2028: unresolved token (0A000357) "extern "C" unsigned long __stdcall ntohl(unsigned long)" (?ntohl@@$$J14YGKK@Z) referenced in function "public: class std::list<struct subjects_group,class std::allocator<struct subjects_group> > __clrcall QS_PQsql::getGroups(void)" (?getGroups@QS_PQsql@@$$FQ$AAM?AV?$list@Usubjects_group@@V?$allocator@Usubjects_group@@@std@@@std@@XZ) 1>QS_PQsql.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "extern "C" unsigned long __stdcall ntohl(unsigned long)" (?ntohl@@$$J14YGKK@Z) referenced in function "public: class std::list<struct subjects_group,class std::allocator<struct subjects_group> > __clrcall QS_PQsql::getGroups(void)" (?getGroups@QS_PQsql@@$$FQ$AAM?AV?$list@Usubjects_group@@V?$allocator@Usubjects_group@@@std@@@std@@XZ) 1>C:\Users\Cin\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\QS Queue\Debug\QSserver.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals I needed a stdint.h header because of uint32_t and that header was missing in vs2008 sa i take it form vs2010 Thanks in advance for any help -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/Linker-error-VS2008-c-tp4962308p4962308.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - general mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
