Yeah, the problem here is an age old one of how Windows DLLs work. There are probably ways we could make this a little less painful.
The NNG_STATIC_LIB macro should be set when building a static library, which causes the symbols to be renamed -- without that we default to using the dynamic version of symbol naming, and you get these link failures.
This is only a problem on Windows, and I'm not sure how to do a better job of making this easy for folks using DLLs or using static libraries. Right now the default favors DLL users.

If some Windows / CMake GURU comes along, maybe they can offer some wisdom to make this better.

NNG / Nanomsg compilation under windows
Created by Robert Heslar, with a template Just a moment ago3 min read Analytics this is instructions i have used to build the NNG library from sources
visual studio 2017 and above is required for these steps
📘 Instructions
clone the repo: GitHub - nanomsg/nng: nanomsg-next-generation -- light-weight brokerless messaging
open a visual studio command prompt, and navigate to the build directory
run cmake .., from the command line, this will create a visual studio solution named nng.sln
open the nng.sln, in visual studio
in visual studio, rebuild the solution, we now have a nng.lib file, for use with a NNG / Nanomsg Application
Highlight important information in a panel like this one. To edit this panel's color or style, select one of the options in the menu.
📋 Related articles this shows the instructions used to build the NNG asyc application demo, found in the NNG demos folder
create the folder path as below, so cmake can find the library and header files for the NNG asyc application demo:
copy the nng includes into the include path above, the include directory in the NNG asyc application demo path:
copy the nng.lib file from the nng/build/Debug directory(from steps in the above article), to the NNG asyc application lib directory
for this NNG application, have this CMakelist.text file:
CMakeLists.txt 26 Jan 2023, 10:09 AM 6) open a visual studio command prompt, and navigate to the NNG asyc application demo build directory
- navigate to the NNG asyc application demo build directory path
8 run cmake .., form the NNG asyc application demo build directory
- a visual studio solution will be created with the name: nng-asyncdemo.sln
- open the nng-asyncdemo.sln in visual studio
- run rebuild all, in the nng-asyncdemo solution, in visual studio
problems: (added nng.lib from steps before (compiling nng source under windows)
when compiling the NNG asyc application demo visual studio we now get the following linker errors:
NNG application missing link symbols:
2>survey.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_nng_close referenced in function server_function 2>survey.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_nng_listen referenced in function server_function 2>survey.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_nng_listener_create referenced in function run_server 2>survey.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_nng_listener_start referenced in function run_server 2>survey.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_nng_listener_get_addr referenced in function run_server 2>survey.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_nng_strerror referenced in function fatal 2>survey.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_nng_send referenced in function server_function 2>survey.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_nng_recv referenced in function recive_function1 2>survey.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_nng_free referenced in function recive_function1 2>survey.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_nng_surveyor0_open referenced in function server_function CMakeLists.txt CMakeLists.txt
if you want to use static lib in windows, maybe you should add a pre-compile instruction for your pre-processor such like this 'add_compile_definitions(NNG_STATIC_LIB)' in your CMakeList
