concrt.lib missing when compiling with Visual Studo for OneCore

Question

I'm trying to compile my project for Windows Onecore (IOT), with onecoreuap.lib using $(VC_LibraryPath_VC_x64_OneCore) e.g (C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Professional\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.27.29110\lib\onecore\x64) instead of VC_Library_Path

I have #include <concrt.h> in my code.

When I build it I get:

Error LNK1104 cannot open file 'concrtd.lib'

I've checked, the (C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Professional\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.27.29110\lib\onecore\x64), this folder does not contain concrt.lib but contains libconcrt.lib

I do not explicitly specify concrt.lib in the Linker properties

According to Microsoft documentation this library available for onecore (IOT)

How can I use concrt (PPL) library with Windows onecore (IOT) projects?

Answer 1

I can find the lib in folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\lib. You may try to add the path into library paths. If you can not find the folder, i suspect the installation of visual studio is wrong.Please refer to this topic:
