Hello everyone,
I have copied an easy example to test my root linkage thats been managed through cmake. Cmake did not give me any errors, so I assume the setup worked. However, if I am compiling the following code, VS2019 tells me, it cannot solve “public: __thiscall TCanvas::TCanvas(char const *,char const *,int,int,int,int)”
Code:
#include "TROOT.h"
#include "TCanvas.h"
#include "TFile.h"
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
TCanvas* canv = new TCanvas("c1", "", 200, 10, 1280, 720);
TFile* file = new TFile("test.root", "RECREATE");
file->WriteTObject(canv);
system("pause");
return 0;
}
The code highliting does not find anything suspicous, so the libraries seemed to be found. I am compiling as WIN32, as I just read x64 is not currently not supported.
Please read tips for efficient and successful posting and posting code
ROOT Version: 6.18/04
Platform: Windows
Compiler: Visual Studio 2019
You have to link against libGpad.lib (among other libraries…)
And see also this other topic
can this be automated by cmake, maybe even include all libraries?
I have used
target_link_libraries(MainApp PUBLIC ROOT::Graf)
I thought only the crucial ones for graphs will be included, if I use it like this?
I will manually add libGpad.lib and try again.
So you probably have to add Core, RIO (for TFile), and Gpad (for TCanvas), something like:
target_link_libraries(MainApp PUBLIC ROOT::Graf ROOT::Core ROOT::RIO ROOT::Gpad)
And since you don’t create any graphical object, you don’t even need ROOT::Graf

Yes, got it to run. Thank you.
However, it seems like root has some problems:

shall I ignore it?
And if I build root from Git repository, can I make an x64 version out of it, or will it not work at all?
Those errors are due to different versions of Windows 10 SDKs, between the one used to build ROOT (10.0.17763.0) and the one on your system (10.0.18362.0). Try to ignore them, if it doesn’t give any other critical errors, otherwise, you can try to install the version 10.0.17763.0 of the Windows 10 SDK, or rebuild ROOT from source
No need to try, it will not even compile
You can also try one of the nightly build binaries available here, for example root_v6.21.01.win32.vc16.exe
That’s a petty to hear.
I’ve changed my systems SDK to the mentioned 10.0.17763.0, but the error/warning is still appearing:

Just to let you know.
OK, so I’m afraid the only solution would be to build from source…
I have cheked the nightly build you recomended. It seems to be brocken (or does not want to cooperate with my system). So I will consider building it, or ignore that error for now. Thank you for patience and help
