    Hello All,

    The project compiles correctly in VS 2010 but in VS 2012, I am getting the linker error as:

    error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__strcat_s referenced in function "int __cdecl strcat_s<512>(char (&)[512],char const *)" (??$strcat_s@$0CAA@@@YAHAAY0CAA@DPBD@Z)

    Hello All,

    The project compiles correctly in VS 2010 but in VS 2012, I am getting the linker error as:

    error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__strcat_s referenced in function "int __cdecl strcat_s<512>(char (&)[512],char const *)" (??$strcat_s@$0CAA@@@YAHAAY0CAA@DPBD@Z)

    It says that it cannot resolve strcat_s() symbol. try after including "string.h".

    Thanks, Renjith V R
