How to use unreal engine modules in C++ (Linker Error)

[shivansh_pandey2 (Shivansh Pandey)]

I am trying to use unreal’s built-in “AndroidAdvertising” module in c++.
Below is the AndroidAdvertising module’s location in 4.27

Firstly, I added “AndroidAdvertising” to the build.cs

.uproject

target.cs

After this I tried to build the solution(without adding any extra code) which gave a linking error:

LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file ‘E:\Unreal Engine\UE_4.27\Engine\Intermediate\Build\Win64\UE4Editor\Development\AndroidAdvertising\UE4Editor-AndroidAdvertising.lib’

Full Log File: Build.txt (1.5 KB)

Project Structure:

I have a custom “Android” module in which I am trying to access unreal’s “AndroidAdvertising” module.

complete project(Project750.rar - Google Drive)

Any help or suggestion will be appreciated.

Could it be that the Type is Editor when it is a Runtime module?

[shivansh_pandey2 (Shivansh Pandey)]

Set the module type to Runtime :

then → “Generate Visual Studio project files” → “Build”

Still Got the same Error: LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file ...\AndroidAdvertising\UE4Editor-AndroidAdvertising.lib'
