You must configure your subproject to support adding COM objects and code, and to support Media Library use.

  1. In Solution Explorer, right-click the subproject name (MediaParserPlugin), and then click Properties to open the properties editor for the subproject.

  2. On the General tab, click Release Type, and then in the drop-down list of release types, click OAK.

  3. On the General tab, click Custom Variables, and then click … to open the Custom Variables dialog box. Add the five custom variables shown in the following table to the subproject.

    Variable name Variable value

    WINCEATL

    1

    _DCOMUUID

    $(SG_OUTPUT_ROOT)\sdk\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\uuid.lib

    _OLEAUT32

    $(SG_OUTPUT_ROOT)\sdk\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\oleaut32.lib

    _OLE32

    $(SG_OUTPUT_ROOT)\sdk\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\ole32.lib

    _COMMCTRL

    $(SG_OUTPUT_ROOT)\sdk\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\commctrl.lib

  4. On the C/C++ tab, click Include Directories, and then type the two semicolon-separated include directory locations: $(_PUBLICROOT)\ie7\sdk\inc;$(_PUBLICROOT)\mediaapps\sdk\inc.

  5. On the Link tab, click Additional Libraries, which already contain $(SG_OUTPUT_ROOT)\sdk\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\coredll.lib, and type the space-separated list of additional libraries, using four of the custom variable names shown in the table in Step 3: $(_OLE32) $(_COMMCTRL) $(_DCOMUUID) $(_OLEAUT32).
