Argh... I can't seem to figure out why I'm getting this error.
I think I'm doing my pointers for QuickGUI correctly...

I have included the (.h) files from QuickGUI into my project solution.
I tried adding all the (.h) files 'physically' into the solution, as a different filter folder, but that did nothing.
I also tried adding mp_guiManager = GameManager::getSingletonPtr()->getGuiManagerPtr(); to my mouse/key injection area, but that also did nothing.

To me, this seems like a DLL / LIB error, but I don't think QuickGUI has a .lib file...

What OS and IDE are you using? Visual Studio?

By default the QuickGUI project should build to create a .dll, and a .lib. In order to use QuickGUI in another project, you need to add the directory to the QuickGUI header files, as well as include the QuickGUI.lib file.

Visual Studio:

Adding Include Directory:
1. Right click Project, Properties.
2. Configuration Properties -> C/C++ -> General
3. Add the path to where the QuickGUI header files are in the "Additional Include Directories" field

Adding QuickGUI.lib to project:
1. Right click Project, Properties.
2. Configuration Properties -> Linker -> General
3. Add the path to where the QuickGUI lib file is in the "Additional Library Directories" field
4. Linker -> Input
5. Add "QuickGUI.lib" to the "Additional Dependencies" field

Its also important to specify the preprocessor definition QUICKGUI_EXPORTS in the QuickGUI project, prior to building it. As you can see in QuickGUIExportDLL.h, this definition, if defined, defines a macro to export definitions, or import definitions. This can be set in QuickGUI"s project settings, C/C++ -> Preprocessor -> Preprocessor Definitions.

Do you have a main(void) included in that code and included in the project if its MV c++?

I have done that before, coded it but not included it in the project.....
