Extended C++ and library configuration

Introduction

When trying to use Extended C++ (EC++), the linker issues errors such as:

Unknown external '__record_needed_destructor'

Solution

Change library configuration to DLIB. This is done with Project > Options > General Options > Library Configuration.

Background

The legacy runtime library, called CLIB, can only be used with C source. The DLIB runtime library supports EC++.
