I'm using VS 6.0 and VS2008. But the problem is VS2008 SDK is not compatible with VS(VC++)
6.0 SDK. To resolve this i have used Windows® Server 2003 SP1 Platform SDK Web Install. If I build the code in release mode its working but if did in debug mode then its giving an error like this
WbemUuid.Lib(wbemcli_i.obj) : fatal error LNK1103: debugging information corrupt; recompile module Error executing link.exe.
What should I do to resolve this problem?
The last version of the Windows SDK that is compatible with VC6 is the Feb 2003 Edition - that predates the Win Server 2003 SP1 SDK by at least a year.
I'm not sure if it's downloadable any more except on MSDN (it is available there).
You may want to consider whether it's worthwhile to continue doing anything other than maybe maintenance of legacy code with VC6.
It turns out that you can still (as of 3 July 2011) order a CD/DVD version of the Feb 2003 SDK for "shipping and handling" from:
Note that I haven't verified that this order page actually still works, I don't know if the offer extends globally, and I don't know how much is charged for shipping/handling.
(use this link to see all the SDK discs available).
I'm still using VC6 very often, it's not so bad.
To get rid of the link error, don't add wbemuuid.lib in your project setting.
If you miss any symbol, just define it.
If you really need any function from this dll, use LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress instead.
For example, if you need CLSID_WbemLocator and IID_IWbemLocator, just define them by yourself:
GUID MY_CLSID_WbemLocator = {0x4590f811, 0x1d3a, 0x11d0, {0x89, 0x1f, 0x00, 0xaa, 0x00, 0x4b, 0x2e, 0x24}};
GUID MY_IID_IWbemLocator = {0xdc12a687, 0x737f, 0x11cf, {0x88, 0x4d, 0x00, 0xaa, 0x00, 0x4b, 0x2e, 0x24}};
And then use MY_XXXX in your code.
