Hi
I have been trying so hard compiling cryptopp library in visual studio 2012 and code::blocks. I have read many tutorials around that, thus far no success. using windows 8.1.

I just need to compile and run Rabin's IDA in cryptopp. What I have done thus far:
1. built the batch after opening crypttest in visual studio and linking the libraries to new created project
2. another way was that I just copied the code inside rabin.cpp in the project and linked the project the created library using batch build.

I would really appreciate a direct solution
thanks

What is the problem?

I build a new win32 project under its properties in c/c++ section I add the directory of cryptopp in additional directories
then I copy past rabin's code in the .cpp of the project and here is a part of the errors I get when trying to build the solution:

ConsoleApplication1.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "class CryptoPP::RandomNumberGenerator & __cdecl CryptoPP::NullRNG(void)" (?NullRNG@CryptoPP@@YAAAVRandomNumberGenerator@1@XZ) referenced in function "public: void __thiscall CryptoPP::CryptoMaterial::DoQuickSanityCheck(void)const " (?DoQuickSanityCheck@CryptoMaterial@CryptoPP@@QBEXXZ)

i have a same problem any one reply will help me

oops, i missed that. You might compile/link with the wrong compiler/linker settings.
