Symbian随手札记——S60 2.1编译问题

Problem：LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __ftol2

 

Description: While building project in Series60_v21 with VS.net 2003, I got the error when execute emulator build. Building process as below:

 

Bldmake bldfiles                        is OK

Abld build wins udeb                error occurs in this building step

 

Explore: This problem is the SDK’s bug, it occurs when there is a explicit transfer from a float to an int,like below:

TInt inta = (TInt)(3.0);

 

Solution:

Find cl_win.pm in EPOC32/Tools, searching the line contain “/W4”, and then changing its content as below:

 

Before Changing:

         &main::Output(

                   "CLFLAGS =",

                            " /nologo",                          # suppress "sign-on" banner message

                            " /Zp4",                      # packs structures on 4 byte boundaries

                            " /GF"                                   # Pools strings and places them in read-only memory

                   );      

 

After Changing:

         &main::Output(

                   "CLFLAGS =",

                            " /nologo",                          # suppress "sign-on" banner message

                            " /Zp4",                      # packs structures on 4 byte boundaries

                            " /GF",                                  # Pools strings and places them in read-only memory

                            " /QIfist"

 

                   );
