[TRNSYS-users] problems linking a non standard type to trndll.dll

[Adriana Angelotti]

Dear all,

I'm trying to link a non standard type to trndll.dll in trnsys 16.

The non standard type was written for trnsys 15, then I updated it 
following the Programmer's Guide instructions
in order to run it in "legacy Trnsys 15 mode".

I'm using Compact Visual Fortran 6.6 and the default workspace Cvf66.dsw.
I simply add the new fortran file and its inc file in Trndll files\Source 
Files\ Types and then do a Rebuild all.

But I get:
  - several Warnings like these:
Warning: DEC$ ATTRIBUTES DLLIMPORT is ignored for non-external 
procedure.   [GETSIMULATIONSTARTTIME]
Warning: DEC$ ATTRIBUTES DLLIMPORT is ignored for non-external 
procedure.   [GETSIMULATIONTIMESTEP]
Warning: DEC$ ATTRIBUTES DLLIMPORT is ignored for non-external 
procedure.   [GETLISTINGFILELOGICALUNIT]

- messages like these:
C:\Programmi\Trnsys16\SourceCode\Types\Type66.for(35): Could not find the 
file ifwin.mod.
C:\Programmi\Trnsys16\SourceCode\Types\Type66.for(36): Could not find the 
file ifport.mod.
C:\Programmi\Trnsys16\SourceCode\Kernel\Trnsys.for(54): Could not find the 
file ifport.mod.

- error messages such as:
Comv-tm4.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _for_read_dir_i8
Comv-tm7.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _for_read_dir_i8

Comv-tm1.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _for_write_dir_i8
Comv-tm4.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _for_write_dir_i8
Comv-tm7.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _for_write_dir_i8
Debug/TRNDll.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals
Error executing link.exe.

Can anybody help me understanding these messages and solving these problems?
They don't seem to deal with the new type file.

Thank you very much
