error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __endthreadex

Symptom:

Microsoft Visual C++ generates the link error:

uafxcwd.lib(thrdcore.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __endthreadex
uafxcwd.lib(thrdcore.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __beginthreadex

Possible Cause:

A library that is being used was built as a multithreaded DLL, however the application is only single threaded.

Remedy:

Change the application to multithreaded. To do this:

1. Go to Project Settings and select the 'C/C++' tab.
2. Select 'Code Generation' in Category.
3. Set ‘Use run-time library’ to either ‘Debug Multithreaded’ (for debug builds) or ‘Multithreaded’ (for release builds).
