[geeks] Visual Studio programming question

[Joshua D Boyd]

Yes, I'm working in the dark side at the moment.  But, it is for school.

Anyway, I'm getting a buttload of linking error that I can't figure out how
to resolve.  One library I'm using had this to say:
    You're using the wrong run-time C-library. The VHS is compiled to link
    against the Multithreaded Debug DLL, so you need to change your link 
    options in Visual C++ to reflect this. To do this open up your projects
    settings tab. Choose the C/C++ tab. In the pull down menu "Categorty", 
    select "Code Generation". In this window, from the pull down window 
    "Use run-time library", choose Debug Multithreaded DLL. 

So, I followed that, and it cut the number of errors and warnings 
dramatically, but I can't figure out what to do about the rest.

I'm writing a win32 program that uses WTK (so a wierd half breed between
gui and console application) and Immersion's Impulse engine.  

I found a note in MSDN on a related topic:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vccore/html/LNK4098.asp
But when I try the remedies suggested, things just get worse.  It seems that
WTK wants samething other than MSVRCTD.lib.  I have a different project
that uses both impulse and WTK, but I can't find the difference that makes
a difference.
