error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol

[Massi]

Dear forum,

I’m trying to create a GUI (vs2008 + Qt on win7 x64) that can read line by line PDF file and detect checkboxes and get their values (checked or not). I used PDFHummus library (easy to build with CMake) and linked the library from vs2008. but I’m getting errors during the compiling

================.h file===================

#include "PDFParser.h"
#include "InputFile.h"
#include "RefCountPtr.h"
#include "PDFDictionary.h"
#include "PDFArray.h"
#include "PDFObjectCast.h"
#include "PDFInteger.h"
#include "PDFReal.h"
#include "PDFName.h"
#include "PDFIndirectObjectReference.h"
#include "PDFStreamInput.h"
#include "IByteReader.h"
#include "EStatusCode.h"


using namespace PDFHummus;

class TestMetrics : public QMainWindow
{
Q_OBJECT
public:
TestMetrics(QWidget *parent = 0, Qt::WFlags flags = 0);
~TestMetrics();
void Parse(std::string& filepath);
private:
Ui::TestMetricsClass ui;
};
===================cpp file======================
void TestMetrics::Parse(std::string &filepath)
{
//initialising the parser
PDFParser parse;
InputFile pdfFile;
pdfFile.OpenFile(filepath);
parse.StartPDFParsing(pdfFile.GetInputStream());
}

I’m getting the following error:

Please can anyone help me on this? I really appreciate your help!
