Deploying to XP - _vsnprintf_s could not be located in the dynamic link library msvcrt.dll
-
hi,
i've successfully got my program running on a fresh windows 8 install, and now i'm trying it on a windows xp machine. when running it, i get the following error message:
"The procedure entry point _vsnprintf_s could not be located in the dynamic link library msvcrt.dll"
i have found one thread on a forum which may describe the problem:
they say that it is necessary to link against msvcr80.dll instead of msvcrt.dll , so i tried adding
-lmsvcr80 to QMAKE_CXXFLAGS but that didn't seem to work.
any tips?
with thanks
