why I get error: 'strcmp': identifier not found (visual studio 2010) - c

why do i get error: 'strcmp': identifier not found in visual studio 2010 C++ Express
#include <string.h>
#include "stdafx.h"
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
printf("%d",(int)strcmp( "str1", "str2" ));
return 0;
}
Thanks

:( #include <string.h> :(
#include "stdafx.h"
Fun quirk of the MSVC compiler, it generates the exact same error when you compile it like that. Yes, not a lot of 'fun'. It skips everything to find the stdafx.h precompiled header include directive. The string.h doesn't actually get included. Fix:
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <string.h>
Always put the stdafx.h include first.

"Unresolved external" error when using _may_i_use_cpu_feature

Writing a C file in Visual Studio 2017 I tried to use _may_i_use_cpu_feature but the compiler complains it's an unresolved external. I have #include <immintrin.h> and other intrinsics in the program seem to work. Compiling options enabled include enable intrinsic functions
What am I missing?
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stddef.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <immintrin.h>
#include <Windows.h>
void main()
{
if (_may_i_use_cpu_feature(_FEATURE_SHA)) printf("INTEL SHA ENABLED\n");
else printf("INTEL SHA NOT ENABLED!\n");
}
Unfortunately Microsoft does not implement all intrinsics that Intel does.

Why does the agwrite function in the cgraph library unexpectedly fail on any config/platform but Win64 release?

I've been trying to get cgraph (https://graphviz.gitlab.io/_pages/pdf/cgraph.pdf) working so I read and write some graph files. I tried writing some very basic code:
#include <assert.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <float.h>
#include <limits.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <memory.h>
#include <stdarg.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <Windows.h>
#include <mysql.h>
#include <graphviz/cgraph.h>
int main() {
FILE *fp = NULL;
fp = fopen("test.dot", "w+");
if (fp == NULL) {
return -1;
}
Agraph_t *g;
g = agopen("test", Agdirected, NULL);
Agnode_t *signal1;
signal1 = agnode(g, "Signal1_ON", TRUE);
Agnode_t *signal2;
signal2 = agnode(g, "Signal1_OFF", TRUE);
Agedge_t *link = agedge(g, signal1, signal2, "link1", TRUE);
agattr(g, AGEDGE, "label", "transitionlink");
agwrite(g, fp);
fclose(fp);
system("pause");
return 0;
}
What should be happening is that the file should be written to test.dot. This code works perfectly fine on Win64 release, but fails on Win64 debug, Win32 debug, and Win32 release. I have double checked the .lib files and .dll files settings in visual studio and in the file directories, making sure to copy the release and debug versions of each platform correctly. However, the agwrite keeps causing a "Microsoft Visual Studio C Runtime Library has detected a fatal error" crash on Win64 debug, Win32 debug, and Win32 release. The weird thing is if I change
agwrite(g, fp); to agwrite(g, stdout);, the code works on all platforms/configurations. I am so confused why this is happening. Here is the source file which contains the code for agwrite if that helps: https://github.com/ellson/MOTHBALLED-graphviz/blob/master/lib/cgraph/write.c
I cannot debug the issue because the source has been compiled into .dlls, and .libs for each platform/configuration.
I appreciate any suggestions/feedback,
Thank you
Edit:
For anyone godly enough to try and get this working on their own system, here are all my binaries, libs, and include files: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/o9tjz7txu4m0k5q/AAAnp8Wu99q9IsFN7kvqZP7Ta?dl=0
Edit 2:
The compiler I am using is MSVC 14 on Windows 10.
I found out that using cgraph directly results in an error when trying to use agwrite(). The solution is to use the GVC abstraction layer which comes with the Graphviz C API to do file I/O. Here is the code that worked:
#include <assert.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <float.h>
#include <limits.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <memory.h>
#include <stdarg.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <Windows.h>
#include <mysql.h>
#include <graphviz/gvc.h>
int main() {
GVC_t *gvc;
gvc = gvContext();
Agraph_t *g;
g = agopen("test", Agdirected, NULL);
Agnode_t *signal1;
signal1 = agnode(g, "Signal1_ON", TRUE);
Agnode_t *signal2;
signal2 = agnode(g, "Signal1_OFF", TRUE);
Agedge_t *link = agedge(g, signal1, signal2, "link1", TRUE);
agattr(g, AGEDGE, "label", "transitionlink");
gvLayout(gvc, g, "dot");
gvRenderFilename(gvc, g, "dot", "test.dot");
gvFreeLayout(gvc, g);
agclose(g);
gvFreeContext(gvc);
system("pause");
return 0;
}
Edit:
Here is the documentation for GVC: https://graphviz.gitlab.io/_pages/pdf/gvc.3.pdf
The reason of crashing is described on official Graphviz site:
This usually happens when the Graphviz library is built using one version of the stdio library, and the user’s program is compiled using another. If the FILE structure of stdio is different, the call to agread() will cause a crash. This is mainly a problem on Windows where we just provide a binary release built with one version of Visual Studio and stdio changes depending on the version of Visual Studio. It can also occur if the user tries to use cygwin or something similar which may also use an incompatible stdio.

moved from cygwin to VisualStudio2013, error LNK2019, snprintf(), c

I'm trying to run a unix compiler-project written in c with MS Visual-Studio 2013 and I can't get rid of the following error:
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "_snprintf" referenced in
function "PUBLIC void SyntaxError( int Expected, TOKEN CurrentToken )"
If I get it right it is a problem where VisualStudio can't find the body/declaration from the snprintf() function, which should be defined in stdio.h.
The project works fine with cygwin. I had to add _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS to preprocessor settings to get this far, but i don't think that has a influence.
Here is the named function:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include "line.h"
#include "strtab.h"
#include "scanner.h"
[..code..]
PUBLIC void SyntaxError( int Expected, TOKEN CurrentToken )
{
char s[M_LINE_WIDTH+2];
snprintf( s, sizeof(s), "Syntax: Expected %s, got %s\n", Tokens[Expected], Tokens[CurrentToken.code] );
Error( s, CurrentToken.pos );
}
If you can help me or there is anything else you need to know please tell me. It's my 3rd day now and I am running out of ideas ;).
So far... Tobias
The name of this function with the MSVC compiler is _snprintf() with an underscore.

Type mismatch in Redeclaration

I have been able to remove almost all errors except these 5 errors in this C program (too long to paste so providing link).
http://codepad.org/AfqrDojN
The errors I receive are as follows:
I am using the following libraries:
#include <graphics.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <dos.h>
#include <conio.h>
What could be the issue?
you are redefining the function remove that is already declared in
#include <stdio.h>
changing the name of your function to (for example) void myremove() will probably solve your problem.

what's wrong in my C program?

a cpp file:
#include <iostream>
#include <jni.h>
#include "Hello.h"
#include "windows.h"
#include "stdafx.h"
typedef void(__stdcall *Print_)();
int main(){
HINSTANCE hDll; //DLL句柄
Print_ print_; //函数指针
hDll = LoadLibrary("Hello.dll");
if (hDll != NULL)
{
print_ = (Print_)GetProcAddress(hDll,"Java_Hello_sayHello#8");
if(print_!=NULL)
{
print_();
}
FreeLibrary(hDll);
}
return 0;
}
//there is something wrong, it prints:
http://i983.photobucket.com/albums/ae311/keatingWang/c_wrong.png
未声明的标识符 means : Undeclared identifier
Consider the macro:
#define HINSTANCE "hDll"
and its use:
HINSTANCE hDll; //DLL句柄
after preprocessing it would look like:
"hDll" hDll;
which clearly is an error as it makes hDll undeclared as "hDll" is not a valid type.
Could it be a pre-compiled header issue? With some project settings VC++ will skip stuff before the #include "stdafx.h", which I think might be the cause of the C4627 warnings you're getting. Have you tried moving #include "stdafx.h" before your other #includes?
remove
#define HINSTANCE "hDLL"
To remove C4627 warning, move up #include "stdafx.h" to the top (to be the first #include) as indicated by Mike Dinsdale's answer. This will probably solve error for LoadLibrary, GetProcAddress, and FreeLibrary:
#include "stdafx.h" // moved up
#include <iostream>
#include <jni.h>
#include "Hello.h"
#include "windows.h"
