get any errors in the code, but when I try to build it, I get the http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/windows/58523/ error "LINK : fatal error LNK1561: entry point must be defined". http://www.it-quants.com/Blogs/tabid/83/EntryId/36/VS2005-how-to-resolve-LINK-fatal-error-LNK1561-entry-point-must-be-defined.aspx I don't get errors in the code, and I am using the header files (ExtendedWin32Console.h" and "conio.h". The actual code doesn't have errors. I have tried to figure this out but I just can't seem to get it to be fixed. And when I double click the entry point error to see where it is, I get a message saying "The System cannot find the File Specified". NOTE: I have just started, and I am working on moving the ASCII Character around the screen. Dec 31, 2011 at 8:08am UTC LB (13378) Do you have an integer returning function called "main"?

Have you compiled other files before? Last edited on Dec 31, 2011 at 5:10pm UTC Dec 31, 2011 at 6:02pm UTC Stewbond (2805) The problem is in your project setup. Check that you have the correct type of project selected (console application?) and that you are creating a .exe file instead of .lib or .dll. I've only ever gotten this message when I've forgotten to add an 1

Then select: "Configuration Properties > Linker > System" and ensure that the SubSystem is set correctly Console (/SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE) Last edited on Dec 31, 2011 at 6:04pm UTC Topic archived.

: fatal error LNK1561: entry point must be defined”? Nov 25 Written by: 11/25/2013 7:15 PM I 've got today the following message, when I've tried to compile a dll that compiled fine before any change: “LINK : fatal error LNK1561: entry point must be defined” During my investigations for resolution, I've tried several tests that all failed: - redefining the entry point of the dll by changing the value of /ENTRY in the Advanced tab of the Link properties item - changing the subsytem environment by forcing it to windows in the System tab of the Link properties item - selecting again Dynamic Library as Configuration Type in the General property item. Finally, I found the solution: the message occurs because some folder was obsolete in the Additional Library Directories of the General tab of the Link properties item. The additional path which was wrong was something like the following one: $(SolutionDir)\..\NotExistingPathName. Of course, the message has nothing to do with the root cause and should normally not appear (it does not appear in other cases).
