[Ace-users] Linking problem with VisualC++ Express on Windows Vista

[Chris]

I am new to C++ and ACE and am facing some linking problems while
trying to build a simple example project on Windows Vista using VisualC
++ Express.

I managed to install and compile ACE without any problems. In order to
see if everything is set up correctly I then created a separate
project where I imported the Future1 example (ace\ACE_wrappers\examples
\Threads\future1.cpp). I configured the ACE_ROOT and PATH environment
variables and added the paths and ACE.lib in the properties for the
project. When I try to build the solution I get the linking errors
shown below. I have tried changing the settings a number of ways
without any success, and suspect there is some basic step/setting that
I have missed. Can someone point me in the right direction?
