I was going to try to make an application using c++. I wanted to import this C library called Raylib to do all the heavy lifting when it comes to graphics. I got all the neccecary files off of their github page (go to this website to find it) and I statically linked it to my visual studio project just like any other library.
My project was set up as a default hello world c++ project in visual studio 2019. The only changes made were installing the library exactly as The Cherno does it in this video
When I tried to run a sample project, I got 2 unresolved external symbol errors with the same description:
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error LNK2001 unresolved external symbol _timeBeginPeriod@4 cpp gam
C:\Users\jjran\source\repos\cpp gam\cpp gam\raylib.lib(core.obj) 1
I am fairly new to coding, so I have no idea what this error means or how to resolve it. Could somebody try to point me in the right direction to get this thing up and running?
If any more information is needed I will gladly add it.
Thanks in advance to anybody that helps me out
