LIB file linking error

[slapierre]

Greetings,

I'm trying to write a simple application that tests a CAN device, I have a .LIB file that contains the functions I need to "talk" with the hardware, but it won't link - .\Can841m.lib : fatal error LNK1136: invalid or corrupt file - the problem is that I can see the content - the functions - of that file with a DLL sniffer.

Anyone has an idea on how to make this work?

What is a CAN device?

Have you tried these suggestions?

Did you write the lib file or are you just trying to use it?

From what I've managed to dig up (not much), it looks like a library for some old DOS compiler.

I doubt that such libraries are compatible with the latest VC6 or VS.NET compilers.
