Linker error: LNK2001 with GetModuleBaseName and EnumProcessModule

[Janine]

Hello, I'm trying to use GetModuleBaseName and EnumProcessModules, but I'm doing something wrong because I get linker error 2001. I guess that the problem is with WINAPI. I have a .c file that is forced to be compiled as c++ and I call those functions from there like this: EnumProcessModules(hProc, &hMod, sizeof(hMod), &cbNeeded); GetModuleBaseName(hProc, hMod, pParentName, sizeof(pParentName)); Then I'm using PSAPI.h where I have -- clip -- #ifdef __cplusplus extern "C" { #endif -- clip -- BOOL WINAPI EnumProcesses( DWORD * lpidProcess, DWORD cb, DWORD * cbNeeded ); -- clip -- DWORD WINAPI GetModuleBaseNameA( HANDLE hProcess, HMODULE hModule, LPSTR lpBaseName, DWORD nSize ); DWORD WINAPI GetModuleBaseNameW( HANDLE hProcess, HMODULE hModule, LPWSTR lpBaseName, DWORD nSize ); #ifdef UNICODE #define GetModuleBaseName GetModuleBaseNameW #else #define GetModuleBaseName GetModuleBaseNameA #endif // !UNICODE -- clip -- #ifdef __cplusplus } #endif -- clip -- Now I get: myprogram.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _GetModuleBaseNameA@16 myprogram.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _EnumProcessModules@16 Why? :confused: I've read many examples and it seems to me that I'm doing this in the same way as they do. I would be glad if someone helped me with this.:) -Janetta

Ok, it is a linker error ! Come on, its the most common of the linker errors !. You forgot to include the psapi.lib in your linker tab.

It is very common, but there are many reasons why you get it. Maybe this mistake was trivial, but it was new to me. Thank you anyway:) -Janetta
