Thread: NetBIOS APIs

Thanks for that

I tried putting this into Code::Blocks as a console application. When I compiled I got:

Code:

                                          === Build Finished: 10 errors, 4  warnings ===

I had a play and found I needed to add the wsock32 and mpr libraries to the build myself. Is that correct? Or should the #pragma statements have done it for me?

I'm fairly new to C++ and windows programming, although have experience with other languages. I'm assuming I should have been able to just compile?

Anyway, it worked and did exactly what I need it to do

Thanks
