Okay, so I''m working on a sound engine for a game project, and I''m receiving some linking errors. I modeled my sound engine off one of the samples included with the DXSDK, and I''ve included all the headers they did in addition to linking all the library files that were linked in Microsoft''s sample. Why am I getting the linking errors? If you''re interested in the errors I''m getting, they''re as follows: --------------------Configuration: RoR Client - Win32 Debug-------------------- Linking... SoundEngine.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: long __thiscall CSoundManager::Initialize(struct HWND__ *,unsigned long,unsigned long,unsigned long,unsigned long)" (?Initialize@CSoundManager@@QAEJPAUHWND__@@KKKK@Z) SoundEngine.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall CSoundManager::CSoundManager(void)" (??0CSoundManager@@QAE@XZ) SoundEngine.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall CSoundManager::~CSoundManager(void)" (??1CSoundManager@@QAE@XZ) SoundEngine.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall CWaveFile::~CWaveFile(void)" (??1CWaveFile@@QAE@XZ) SoundEngine.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: long __thiscall CWaveFile::Close(void)" (?Close@CWaveFile@@QAEJXZ) SoundEngine.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: long __thiscall CWaveFile::Open(char *,struct tWAVEFORMATEX *,unsigned long)" (?Open@CWaveFile@@QAEJPADPAUtWAVEFORMATEX@@K@Z) SoundEngine.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall CWaveFile::CWaveFile(void)" (??0CWaveFile@@QAE@XZ) SoundEngine.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: long __thiscall CSound:

I''m not completely sure if this will work or not, but try going to Tools->Options->Directories in MSVC++ and putting the DirectX include and lib directories at the top of the list.

Hey, thanks for the reply. That wasn''t the problem...it turns out that the dsutil.cpp file that I needed wasn''t automatically included into my project when I included dsutil.h. Unfortunately, I now get other linking errors when I try to declare an object of my class type...it says that a structure has already been declared, even though it''s a custom structure/type name and I even included "#ifndef" and "#define" stuff in my header file.....odd.....

HELP ME!

it seems like youre missing some .lib files. other times, i may include certain files twice, which also leads to linking errors.
