Error with Winsock
April 07, 2002 11:41 AM
When I try to use Winsock, I get an error that says:
LIBCD.lib(wincrt0.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _WinMain@16
Debug/Server.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
Any idea what the problem is?

You are compiling a windows application and provided a main() entry point.
Fix it by changing from /SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS to /SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE in the project options, or replacing main() by WinMain().

Even cooler...remove the /SUBSYSTEM linker switch all together 
The linker is smart enough to figure out what it needs.
