Enum declarations in resource file

Hello.
How can I use enum declarations in my resource file? I'm getting a resource syntax error.

ErrorStrings.rc:

Code:

---

# include "ErrorStringIds.hpp"

STRINGTABLE
BEGIN

    SER_ERROR_FUNCTION_0x00, "A_Function_name"
    SER_ERROR_FUNCTION_0x01, "A_Function_name"
    SER_ERROR_FUNCTION_0x02, "A_Function_name"
    //etc etc.
END

---

Old ErrorStringIds.hpp without resource syntax error:

Code:

---

# define SER_ERROR_FUNCTION_0x00 0
# define SER_ERROR_FUNCTION_0x01 1
# define SER_ERROR_FUNCTION_0x02 2
//etc etc

---

New ErrorStringIds.hpp with resource syntax error:

Code:

---

enum ErrorFunction
{

    SER_ERROR_FUNCTION_0x00 = 1,//[Resource error] syntax error
    SER_ERROR_FUNCTION_0x01 = 2,
    SER_ERROR_FUNCTION_0x02 = 4
    //etc etc
};

---

I hope you get the picture, I want to use flags so I can combine error's to reduce the stringtable size.
Thanks in advance, Ktulu. (I'm using Dev-C++).

I'm pretty sure that the resource compiler will ONLY understand C preprocessor defintions [i.e. #define].

Okey... is there a way to still use flags, if so, how?

Not sure what you want to do [never mind that I know about as much about resource editors as I've written in this thread - but perhaps if you clarify, someone else can help?]
