Hi;

I'm using the toolkit 11.1 in a standard dll using mfc classes (no MFC extension DLL).

When trying to use the CXTPWinThemeWrapper class inside the DLL I get linker errors (unresolved externals) for all functions of the class that implement calls into UxTheme.dll.

On the other hand, functions like ThemeDataOpen() or EnableTheming() are correctly resolved.

Using the same class in MFC EXE compile and link without any errors.

Any ideas?

Hello,

CXTPWinThemeWrapper loads these functions in runtime. It have to be something in your application settings.

Hi Oleg;

I know this. Perhaps I described the problem in a wrong way. Not the uxtheme.dll function could not be resolved, but the functions of the CXTPWinThemeWrapper class that make calls into the UXTheme.dll. So CXTPWinThemeWrapper::OpenThemeData() or CXTPWinThemeWrapper::CloseThemeData() are not resolved by the linker.

Hi;

I found it myself! The old 'treat w_char as builtin type' issue...

In any case - thanks for the hint about project settings.
