VERY simple C program won't compile with VC 64
- by Paperflyer
Here is a very simple C program:
#include <stdio.h>
int main (int argc, char *argv[]) {
printf("sizeof(short) = %d\n",(int)sizeof(short));
printf("sizeof(int) = %d\n",(int)sizeof(int));
printf("sizeof(long) = %d\n",(int)sizeof(long));
printf("sizeof(long long) = %d\n",(int)sizeof(long long));
printf("sizeof(float) = %d\n",(int)sizeof(float));
printf("sizeof(double) = %d\n",(int)sizeof(double));
return 0;
}
While it compiles fine on Win32 (command line: cl main.c), it does not using the Win64 compiler ("c:\Program Files(x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin\amd64\cl.exe" main.c). Specifically, it sais "error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol printf referenced in function main". As far as I understand this, it can not link to printf, right?
Obviously, I have Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler 2008 (Standard enu) x86 and x64 installed and am using the 64-bit flavor of Windows (7).
What is the problem here?
