[monalikolhe]

Hey guys,
I have sucessfully built Hans Boehm Garbage collector on linux, accordind to instrtuctions given on Hans Boehm Website.
But I am unable to bulid it on WINDOWS.
It is not creating "gc.lib" file.

Please help.

There is no gc.lib for Windows.

Do you have instructions for building using VC++?

But, when I did NMAKE on visual c++ command prompt, it created a GC.LIB file,
and now when i am trying to link it, it is giving
"Unresolved external symbol.......re ference in function main"
kind of errors

Initially considering only the first error in the list

What symbol is unresolved?
Where in the garbage collector source code is it defined?
Where in the garbage collector source code is it declared?
Have you included the declaration into the file containing main?
What is the name of the file containing main?
