创建包含第三方SDK的c ++ DLL

Question

I am trying to get a third party reconstruction library ReconstructMe working by creating a c++ dll and call it within unity(c#).

I have get it working using supplied dll but calling unmanaged function calls are hitting performance on every update for multiple functions eg:

on every update I am calling below necessary calls:

reme_sensor_grab
reme_sensor_prepare_images
reme_sensor_track_position
reme_sensor_update_volume
reme_surface_generate 

For optimization, the idea is if I can make a new DLL including all above functions, calls and this DLL import function will call once per update from unity(c#) or may be call it just once and get data from callbacks.

I have simply used below code to check if I am able to get it working, unfortunately I am getting LNK2019:

RemeDLL.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_reme_context_create referenced in function “private: void __cdecl RemeDLL::StartScan(void)” (?StartScan@RemeDLL@@AEAAXXZ)
1>c:\Projects\RemeDLL\x64\Debug\RemeDLL.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

#include <iostream>
#include <reconstructmesdk/reme.h>
using namespace std;

class RemeDLL
{
    __declspec(dllexport) void StartScan()
    {
        // Create a new context
        reme_context_t context;
        reme_context_create(&context);
        //...
    }
};

Here are definitions from SDK:

typedef struct _reme_context* reme_context_t;

LIBRECONSTRUCTMESDK_LIBRARY_INTERFACE
reme_error_t reme_context_create(reme_context_t *c);

#define LIBRECONSTRUCTMESDK_LIBRARY_INTERFACE __declspec(dllimport)

Can someone please suggest or give pointers how can I go around this ? Do I need some kind of layers for linking dll to import first and then call dll to export function, please advice. Thanks.

1. Add paths to ReconstructMe inc and lib folders to your project properties;
2. Add line #pragma comment(lib, "LibReconstructMeSDK.lib") to your source code.
