hi,
i'm having a problem with a structure i found at MSDN.
the problem is that the complielr doesnt seem recognize this structure.
im using devc++ right now, and i have the platform sdk installed.
and i have included the header too!
here it is
what could be the problem?
The problem is that it's not typedef'd in ntsecpkg.h.
Generally, if you come across such issues with dev-cpp, check out msdn to identify the header it's in and search for the missing define/typedef in that header. If it's present in the header file then it's probably enclosed within an #ifdef SOME_CONSTANT....#endif preprocessor conditional block so you'll probably get away with just #defining SOME_CONSTANT prior to #including that particular header. If it's absent, as this struct is, and you are confident that your mingw win32api is at least current, then check out winsup cvs to see if there's an up-to-the-minute version of that particular header.
Unfortunately, it seems that ntsecpkg.h was last updated a couple of years ago.
A possible solution is to just typedef the struct in question yourself, although this may lead to further related problems as GetCallInfo doesn't seem to be prototyped either. For this you'll need to use GetProcAddress to use the function dynamically with a runtime loaded dll (don't know in which dll GetCallInfo lives so you'll need to find that out). Search this board for examples of the use of GetProcAddress, although it seems msdn provides an example of runtime dynamic linking under the description for that function.
Are you sure you are including the correct header? My version of NTSecPkg.h (from the SDK) has the structure defined properly. Make sure you are using the header file from the SDK, and not from your compiler.
where did you look? i searched for the header it turned out i got 2.
1 "ntsecpkg.h" in dev\include
2 "NTSecPkg.h" in sdk\include
the first one dont have any prototypes at all its full of defined value though
i not sure how to do this runtime dynamic linking either, do you think if i change to msvc it will fix the problem? did anyone have a problem on
msvc?
thanks for the help!
>>Make sure you are using the header file from the SDK, and not from your compiler.<<
Good idea - it's quicker to test and might just work (wish I'd suggested that ;) ). However, I've found that ms headers are not always compatible with mingw and taking this approach might be more troublesome in the long term.
>>2 "NTSecPkg.h" in sdk\include<<
I think that'll be the one that bithub is referring to.
>>if i change to msvc<<
If that's an option for you then that would seem to be an easier route than fighting it out with dev-cpp (mingw).
ok i've changed my compiler to vc 6.0 but i included the sdk header now i got 40 errors then, even if i turn of precompiled headers.
have you tried it out?
>>now i got 40 errors<<
What are they?[edit] (don't post multiple errors that are the same and include the msvc error codes, too).[/edit]
they are:

When you say you included the sdk header file did you:
1. Use an absolute path, eg. #include "c:\program files\microsoft platform sdk for windows xp sp2\include\ntsecpkg.h"
or
2. Use a more normal #include <ntsecpkg.h> after setting the winxp sp2 sdk path as the initial include path within msvc6?
If you did 1. then go back and recompile after doing 2.
Along with what Ken was saying, do you have your compiler configured so that the sdk include directory is in your includes list?
i went to tools\options\directories
and added what you said
it says the directory doesnt exist if i try to do that
edit\\ and yes i had included it before too
>>it says the directory doesnt exist if i try to do that<<
That's strange. When you add an include directory it should pop up the 'browse for folder' dialog so you can navigate to that directory, then you use the arrow button within that part of the msvc6 options dialog to move that directory to the top of the include directory list. I'm sorry, but I don't understand why you'd get that error...
Unless....
Try a 'build-->clean' then 'build-->rebuild all'.
nope its not like that cause u only can add folders not entire headerfiles
