I have been coding merrily along, with no problems, and suddenly, this happens:

$MAIN
$INCLUDE "clsMAT.inc"
$INCLUDE "waitkey$.inc"
DECLARE IMPORT, GETTICKCOUNT(),UINT


Compiling...
Table7-2.eba
clsMAT.eba
gausjord.eba
File: R:\EBDev\projects\BOB\Applied Linear Regression\Table7-2\gausjord.eba (74) Warning: Uninitialized variable: MCol
File: R:\EBDev\projects\BOB\Applied Linear Regression\Table7-2\gausjord.eba (74) Warning: Uninitialized variable: PCol
File: R:\EBDev\projects\BOB\Applied Linear Regression\Table7-2\gausjord.eba (74) Warning: Uninitialized variable: PRow

Linking...
Emergence Linker v1.11 Copyright ÂÃ,© 2006 Ionic Wind Software
[b]Unresolved external __imp_GETTICKCOUNT
Error: Unresolved extern __imp_GETTICKCOUNT[/b]
Error(s) in linking Table7_2.exe


Somehow, I get Error: Unresolved extern __imp_GETTICKCOUNT

TIA

I think waitkey$ is a reserved word.

Try replacing:


DECLARE IMPORT, GETTICKCOUNT(),UINT


with:


DECLARE IMPORT, _GETTICKCOUNT ALIAS GetTickCount(),INT


and when you need to use the function:


gtc=_GETTICKCOUNT()


delete your declare statement and
wherever gettickcount() is used in your program change it to MILLISECS() which is the exact same function built into EBasic commands.

getkey without the $ is a keyword

Larry

if you use the gettickcount with the alias
DECLARE IMPORT, _GETTICKCOUNT ALIAS GetTickCount(),INT
make sure you spell the function name after the alias exactly as it is shown with the same upper/lower case letters.

I changed it just to see to this
DECLARE IMPORT, _GETTICKCOUNT ALIAS GETTICKCOUNT(),INT
and get the unresolved error.

Larry

if you change your original declare
DECLARE IMPORT, GETTICKCOUNT(),UINT
to DECLARE IMPORT, GetTickCount(),UINT
it will work
and when you call the function either way it will work:
gtc=GETTICKCOUNT()
gtc=GetTickCount()
still easier to just use MILLISECS()

Thanks to all for your replies.
Larry gave me the clue.
I had done some editing in another editor,
and it had capitalized "GetTickCount".

All is now well.
