I get a linker error while I try to build following code. It seems code is ok. Linker error msg. is given below: error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "protected: virtual void __cdecl pcl::NormalEstimation<struct pcl::pointxyz,struct="" pcl::normal="">::computeFeature(class pcl::PointCloud<struct pcl::normal=""> &)" (?computeFeature@?$NormalEstimation@UPointXYZ@pcl@@UNormal@2@@pcl@@MEAAXAEAV?$PointCloud@UNormal@pcl@@@2@@Z)

How can I resolve this?

      cloud.width    = 5;
      cloud.height   = 1;
      cloud.is_dense = false;
      cloud.points.resize (cloud.width * cloud.height);

      for (size_t i = 0; i < cloud.points.size (); ++i)
      {
        cloud.points[i].x = 1024 * rand () / (RAND_MAX + 1.0f);
        cloud.points[i].y = 1024 * rand () / (RAND_MAX + 1.0f);
        cloud.points[i].z = 1024 * rand () / (RAND_MAX + 1.0f);
