Hello everyone,
It has been some time, but not I started programming externals for pd..
Since I don't know much about c/c++ and "m_pd.h" I started with the tutorials..

http://pdstatic.iem.at/externals-HOWTO/

and

http://www.lillychalaudio.com/2012/03/15/how-to-make-your-first-puredata-external-hello-world-the-easy-way/

So I use the (old) Dev-C++. The helloworld-example just works great. But the counter-example throws an error,
since the "ide" (I don't know exactly what it is, guess the "linker"?!) can't deal with the "$s_float" (or was it "&s_float") saying something like "missing __imp__s_float"

Can someone explain to me what this means? Where it is missing and why?!
..I have had more messages like that before I added the path to "lib.pd" to the linker-commands... but actually I'm not shure what I'm doing...

Bye
Flipp

..ok forget it... got it.
(and of course it is "&s_float" ...it's not pd but c..)

How did you fix it?
