[Dev-C++] Parse Error in Resource File only in Dev

[Andre M. B. <ab...@cp...>]

Dear Users,

   I have a project file which is a Charles Petzold, chapter 10,=20
poppad2.c example.
=20
   All example files from this book are made for Visual C++. Up to this
example in this chapter I am getting success to adapt them to Dev.

   But this example is presenting one parse error that I can=B4t discover
what=B4s grong.=20

I can actually get this to compile (and even run correctly when I add
a return value to AskConfirmation (int AskConfirmation (HWND hwnd))
but that is probably just a mistype.

What you need to do is create an empty windows project, or use the
Windows  Application template and replace the contents of the provided
main.cpp file with your popadd2.c file. Add the resources.h and
popadd.rc files too the project, press F9  and look at your program
runing.

I would suggest creating an empty windows project to save yourself a
bit of cutting and pasting every time you need to create a new project
from the book.

Common with old versions of windres.
Update your resource compiler (windres.exe) to the latest version.
