Dear Arnd,
Thanks a lot for your help. Now I have solved the problem of version
mismatch. The reason is I haven't include the sentence of "#define MODULE".
However the problem of unresolved symbol XIo_In32 and XIo_Out32 still
exists. I will try to solve it following your suggestion. If any question,
I will ask you again. Thanks a lot for your help.
Regards
Ming
