I used global variant afxGlobalUtils of MFC9.0 (VS2008+Feature Pack) in my
MFC extension dll like this:
HICON hIcon = afxGlobalUtils.GetWndIcon(pWnd);

But when i compile, there is a link error:
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "class CGlobalUtils
afxGlobalUtils" (?afxGlobalUtils@@3VCGlobalUtils@@A)

Does any .lib file neet to be added to project?

I searched in my VS2008 + FP installation, and found that afxGlobalUtils is
defined in file 'afxglobalutils.cpp' (line 37).

CGlobalUtils afxGlobalUtils;

....maybe you should add that file to your project?

Hi Omnix,

I've just tried this in my project and got the same error. If you
change you change your project settings to link statically against
MFC, the error goes away.

Looks like a bug in MFC 9.0 - I'd suggest reporting this at
http://connect.microsoft.com.

afxGlobalUtils is not documented on MSDN, so it looks like this class
is intended only for use internally within MFC, not from user code.
