CVI Project to Visual Studio Project

Question

I'm trying to move a project from LabWindows/CVI 9 to Visual studio, I've been correcting errors by importing cvi libraries, now I've run into this error, but I can't find where the library comes from and it seems to be the last one I'm missing

LNK2019 unresolved external symbol _main referenced in function _WinMain@16 MES_Control_2.0.3.39 cviwmain.lib(extwmain.obj)

in the case of the other libraries it gave the same error but now I can't find extwmain.c or extwmain.lib

Answer 1

Your project already is configured to link cviwmain.lib. The error means it needs a main() function. You probably configured your project as a windows application(not a console application), so just remove that library because you don't need it. See this documentation for detail.
