Thomas -
Did you setup your environment per the C SDK README file?
README file for the NimBUS C language SDK
To build probes using the NimBUS C SDK you MUST have the NIMROOT Environment
variable set. This is the top node of the SDK package (usually this will be
C:\PROGRA~1\NimBUS\sdk for C:\Program Files). In addition it is usually a good
idea to have the SDK's bin directory in the PATH.
An example batch file called nimenv.bat is included. This batch file can be
modified in any text editor if the paths used on your system are different
from those set. To avoid forgetting to run this batch file it is recomended
that you add the NIMROOT variable to your environment, and add the SDK's bin
directory to your PATH.
Tip: Many programs have problems with spaces in directory names. To find the
short name (8.3 representation) of any file or directory you can use the '/x'
modifier to dir:
c:\> dir /x
The short name will be in the fifth column. Program files is usually PROGRA~1.
On the Windows platform you can use the CodeWizard to generate a skeleton
program with example code for most NimBUS operations. The CodeWizard generates
a bmake.file which bmake.exe expands to a makefile suitable for compilation
with Visual C.
The errors you reported that you are getting when attempting to build your CPP program seem to indicate some kind of build environment issue.
Finally, you should review the C SDK section of the CA UIM Development Tools Wiki page. There is a link to the C SDK Reference Guide PDF file with some additional information.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
