Compiler Error Help please

I have a feeling it's something extreeeeeemely simple, but I am just basically copying and pasting from a websource. Here's the error:

In file included from WinMain.cpp:3:
Resrouce.rc:3: error: expected unqualified-id before numeric constant
Resrouce.rc:3: error: expected `,' or `;' before numeric constant

make.exe: *** [WinMain.o] Error 1

Execution terminated

Heres the code:

WinMain

Code:

#include <windows.h>
#include "Resource.h"
#include "Resrouce.rc"

const char WinClassName[] = "myWindowClass";

// Step 4: the Window Procedure
LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc(HWND hwnd, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
    switch(msg)
    {
        case WM_CLOSE:
            DestroyWindow(hwnd);
            break;
        
        case WM_LBUTTONDOWN:
            {
            char szFileName[MAX_PATH];
            HINSTANCE hInstance = GetModuleHandle(NULL);

            GetModuleFileName(hInstance, szFileName, MAX_PATH);
            MessageBox(hwnd, szFileName, "This program is:", MB_OK | MB_ICONINFORMATION);

            break;
            }
        case WM_DESTROY:
            PostQuitMessage(0);
            break;
        
        default:
            return DefWindowProc(hwnd, msg, wParam, lParam);
    }
    return 0;
}

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
    LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)
{
    WNDCLASSEX wc;
    HWND hwnd;
    MSG Msg;

    //Step 1: Registering the Window Class
    wc.cbSize        = sizeof(WNDCLASSEX);
    wc.style         = 0;
    wc.lpfnWndProc   = WndProc;
    wc.cbClsExtra    = 0;
    wc.cbWndExtra    = 0;
    wc.hInstance     = hInstance;
    wc.hIcon         = LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);
    wc.hCursor       = LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_ARROW);
    wc.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH)(COLOR_WINDOW+1);
    wc.lpszMenuName  = MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_MYMENU);;
    wc.lpszClassName = WinClassName;
    wc.hIconSm       = LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);

    if(!RegisterClassEx(&wc))
    {
        MessageBox(NULL, "Window Registration Failed!", "Error!",
            MB_ICONEXCLAMATION | MB_OK);
        return 0;
    }

    // Step 2: Creating the Window
    hwnd = CreateWindowEx(
        WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE,
        WinClassName,
        "The title of my window",
        WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,
        CW_USEDEFAULT, CW_USEDEFAULT, 400, 300,
        NULL, NULL, hInstance, NULL);

    if(hwnd == NULL)
    {
        MessageBox(NULL, "Window Creation Failed!", "Error!",
            MB_ICONEXCLAMATION | MB_OK);
        return 0;
    }

    ShowWindow(hwnd, nCmdShow);
    UpdateWindow(hwnd);

    // Step 3: The Message Loop
    while(GetMessage(&Msg, NULL, 0, 0) > 0)
    {
        TranslateMessage(&Msg);
        DispatchMessage(&Msg);
    }
    return Msg.wParam;
}

Resource.h

Code:

/* Resource.h  */

#define IDR_MYMENU 101

#define ID_FILE_EXIT 9001
#define ID_STUFF_GO 9002

Resource.rc

Code:

#include "Resource.h"

IDR_MYMENU MENU
{
    POPUP "&File"
    {
        MENUITEM "E&xit", ID_FILE_EXIT
    }

    POPUP "&Stuff"
    {
        MENUITEM "&Go", ID_STUFF_GO
        MENUITEM "G&o somewhere else", 0, GRAYED
    }   
    
}

If anyone could please let me know this error, I havent used any resources prior to this in my compiler(Dev C++). That is why I came straight here instead of searching elsewhere..

You can't #include a .rc file... I only know enough about Windows to know that that's wrong

Ok.. thanks, I actualy thought that first lol, however I get another error when I don't include it.

gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1': No such file or directory

windres.exe: no resources

make.exe: *** [Windows_private.res] Error 1

Execution terminated

Hey! i recognise that code by any chance are you doing the forgers win32 API programming tutorial?

try putting those #define's at the top of ur resource file and cpp file and getting rid of the header, that worked for me!

Try something like....

Code:

windres Resource.rc resource.o
g++ whatever.cpp resource.o

Both the .rc and the .cpp files must include Resource.h

Hmm. Not sure I understand you exactly McGyver, and thanks for your replies all.

Where should I put?
windres Resource.rc resource.o
g++ whatever.cpp resource.o

In the header file?

I was referring to manually compiling the project.

Ah got you, I'll try it out.. Thanks.

Code:

#include "Resrouce.rc"

It would appear that you've mis-spelled this line (although, as someone else pointed out, you probably shouldn't be using #include on a resource file anyway)

Lol yes, thanks i really need to look those things over.. To tell you the truth resrouce is the name of the file lol, I accidently saved it wrong :/ So it is indeed correctly including the file. However without the file Included I get a different error. ^ Read up ^
