The 6.0A SDK is missing RichEd20.lib for x64

Posted by Microsoft on 6/4/2010 at 3:54 PM

Further information about how to get this to work:

void CreateRichEdit(ITextHost *pTextHost, IUnknown **ppUnk)
{
    TextServicesProcType TextServicesProc;
    HMODULE hmod = LoadLibrary("msftedit.dll");
    if (hmod) TextServicesProc = (TextServicesProcType)GetProcAddress(hmod, "CreateTextServices");
    if (TextServicesProc)
    {
        HRESULT hr = TextServicesProc(NULL, pTextHost, ppUnk);
    }
}

Thanks,
Chris

Hi Cradke,
I spoke with the developer and he indicates there isn't a 64-bit version of riched20.lib. He indicates that loadlibrary should be used as described here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb787873(VS.85).aspx, which eliminates the need to import the lib.

If there are any further issues, please contact me chrishu at microsoft dot com.

Thanks,

I attached a example app that makes a call to CreateTextServices in the WinMain. Notice that the Win32 platforms build without error, however changing the platform to x64 results in the reported error.
