SVDui.exe – 33 error(s), 0 warning(s)
The solution to the above problem is to add “rpcrt.lib comctl32.lib” at project settings->Link->object/library modules
along with “kernel32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib winspool.lib comdlg32.lib
advapi32.lib shell32.lib ole32.lib oleaut32.lib uuid.lib odbc32.lib
odbccp32.lib”.
