Undefined reference - Help

The project is probably not linking with the library that is produced for that dll, most likely akrip32.lib, or libakrip32.a, or something like that.

Thanks sir, Here are the files for the project plus the akrip which is found on http://akrip.sourceforge.net/download.html

Errors I get are as below and I have attached the Source code and DLL (the DLL is LGPLed)
C:\Program Files\CodeBlocks\Projects\testingAkrip\main.cpp||In member function `DWORD CDRip::GetVersion()':|

||=== Build finished: 1 errors, 3 warnings ===|

In function GetCDLists() (main.cpp) you have an object also named GetCDLists. Rename that object to something else, such as GList, or whatever. Just don't give it the same name as the function name.

Then a little later in that function you attempt to call the function with a parameter. That function does not take any parameters.

CDRip::GetVersion: you have to put a return value at the end of that function.

Thanks alot.
I'm working on your comments :)

Here is the updated code.
When I run the app, it just loads the DLL then crashes :(
I don't understand what I do wrong. BTW I'm just starting with Windows DLL and I want to implement simple ripping function of the Akrip32.dll

Probably because you are passing uninitialized variables to functions. If your compiler didn't produce these warnings then use a different compiler.

1>c:\dvlp\test9\test9\main.cpp(59) : warning C4700: uninitialized local variable 'lpcd' used
1>c:\dvlp\test9\test9\app.cpp(16) : warning C4700: uninitialized local variable 'lister' used

it didnt!
I use GCC compiler that comes with Code::Blocks. may be I should change compiler to windows

windows is not a compiler -- its an operating system. IMHO vc++ 2008 Express is one of the best compilers/IDEs available today. It produces a lot of errors and warnings that other compilers completly miss. And its debugging facilities can't be beat by any other IDE/compiler on any operating system.

Instead of changing compilers at this point, find out how to increase the warning level so that it will produce better errors and warnings.

LPCDLIST is pointer to struct.
GetCDLists code :

if (GCDLists !=0){
        LPCDLIST lpcd;  // Pointer to struct
        GCDLists(lpcd); //  <-- no place for data
  .....

if (GCDLists !=0){
            CDLIST lp;         // struct variable
            GCDLists(&lp);  //  an address of struct 
            std::cout <<   lp.cd[0].info.vendor;
 .....

LPCDLIST is pointer to struct.
GetCDLists code :

if (GCDLists !=0){
        LPCDLIST lpcd;  // Pointer to struct
        GCDLists(lpcd); //  <-- no place for data
  .....

if (GCDLists !=0){
            CDLIST lp;         // struct variable
            GCDLists(&lp);  //  an address of struct 
            std::cout <<   lp.cd[0].info.vendor;
 .....

That completely solved the Problem.
Thanks you two guys :) You have saved me alot of pains

Ok, your code works, but I have not understood the changes you made. Can you explain a little bit of changes and what I was doing wrong. Also why Did you changed LPCDLIST lpcd; to GCDLists(&lp); ?? also what about std::cout << lp.cd[0].info.vendor; ??

Thanks

app.cpp

# include "main.h"

//testing function below

    CDRip instance;
    //DWORD ver = instance.GetVersion();

    //std::cout<<"The Version is: "<<ver<<std::endl;
    //Get CDList
    CDLIST lister;   // object of CDLIST struct

    instance.GetCDLists(&lister);  // Pass an address of lister 
    return 0;
}

main.cpp

....
