bass lib not linking, all other work perfect

I'm having a wierd problem. i'm developping a nice game with openGL on MFC. i need to use threads for multi sound. so i am trying to use the BASS lib for that.

For a reason that is beyond my comprihention, i can not get the bass.lib to link. all other libs (openGL libs and so on) link perfect.

1. i'v added "#include "base.h" to my *.h MFC dialog file (tried both the .cpp and the .h).

2. I am using a global function for the thread declared in the cpp file:

   UINT SetMusicThread(LPVOID Param);

3. Calling the new thread in the "onInitDialog()":

   AfxBeginThread(SetMusicThread,GetSafeHwnd(),THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL,0,0,NULL);

4. The function for now is just trying to start the first stream: just trying set by step:

   UINT SetMusicThread(LPVOID Param) { //soundTrack* sound = (soundTrack*)Param;

   // Create Handle to the music str=BASS_StreamCreateFile(FALSE,Sound[SoundPosition],0,0,0); // Check if valid if(!str) { // Not valid, Free object //FreeMusicThread(); return FALSE; } }

5. str is a global HSTEAM.

6. The program compiles ok, but doesn't link with the messege:

   Error 6 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BASS_StreamCreateFile@20 referenced in function "unsigned int __cdecl SetMusicThread(void *)" (?SetMusicThread@@YAIPAX@Z) MonstersDlg.obj Monsters

7. added the bass.lib to the "Addisionals dependencies" and even tried to put it both in my project and in 开发者_JAVA百科the the LIB of the SDKs library....tried every thing i can think of....

Can any one please help me....what am i missing???

I think bass.h creates a static library.

You need to add the actual lib to your project by pressing in your sdk (while your project is open): Project -> Settings, press the Link tab and in your Object/library modules add the actual path of tha bass.lib. (the instructions are on VS 5.0 so diferences may be present in newer SDK versions)
