title: Linking VS2010 with Assimp
body: <p>I have been trying to get assimp working with VS2010. I have seen many questions similar to this but I just can't get it to work. Read the installation tutorials here <a href="http://assimp.sourceforge.net/lib_html/install.html" rel="nofollow">http://assimp.sourceforge.net/lib_html/install.html</a> and still can't get it to work.</p>
  
  <p>This is what I did for VS2010 project setup:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>All Configurations -> Configuration Properties -> VC++ Directories -> Library Directories ADDED
  C:\assimp--3.0.1270-sdk\lib\assimp_release-dll_x64</p></li>
  <li><p>All Configurations -> Configuration Properties -> VC++ Directories -> Include Directories ADDED
  C:\assimp--3.0.1270-sdk\include</p></li>
  <li><p>All Configurations -> Configuration Properties -> C++ -> General -> Additional Include Directories ADDED
  C:\assimp--3.0.1270-sdk\include</p></li>
  <li><p>All Configurations -> Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Input -> Additional Dependencies ADDED assimp.lib</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>When i write following code: </p>
  
  <pre><code>#include &lt;assimp/Importer.hpp&gt;      // C++ importer interface
  #include &lt;assimp/scene.h&gt;           // Output data structure
  #include &lt;assimp/postprocess.h&gt;     // Post processing flags
  
  Assimp::Importer importer;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is the error I get:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Error   2   error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall Assimp::Importer::Importer(void)" (??0Importer@Assimp@@QAE@XZ) referenced in function "void __cdecl `dynamic initializer for 'importer''(void)" (??__Eimporter@@YAXXZ)    C:\Users\Martin Liu\documents\visual studio 2010\Projects\MyGame\MyGame\Game.obj    MyGame
  
  Error   3   error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall Assimp::Importer::~Importer(void)" (??1Importer@Assimp@@QAE@XZ) referenced in function "void __cdecl `dynamic atexit destructor for 'importer''(void)" (??__Fimporter@@YAXXZ) C:\Users\Martin Liu\documents\visual studio 2010\Projects\MyGame\MyGame\Game.obj    MyGame
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any help would be appreciated</p>
