RE: [Dev-C++] Win32 API version

[Marc H. <ma...@e-...>]

Hi Paul,

There are things omitted from the windows headers provided with dev-cpp.
Your best bet is to download the Platform SDK from Microsoft, and when you
find something missing, declare it yourself in your own header (by copying
the declaration from the appropriate header in the Platform SDK). That way
when the headers are updated, you can just remove your declaration from your
header without stuffing anything up. You should note that some functions,
like AnimateWindow, aren't available in all versions of Windows.

I hope this helps.

Subject: [Dev-C++] Win32 API version


Hi,

I was wondering, which version of the Win32 API is included with
Dev-C++? I fear it's not the most recent one. I tried to use a call
which should be included (AnimateWindow), but I got an error about it. My
MSDN library tells me that it should be in "winuser.h" (which is included by
"windows.h" as far as I know), so I did a search for any file with the text
"AnimateWindow" in it in my Dev-C++ folder... and it didn't find anything. I
know this call is part of the Win32 API, as I've used it a couple of times
before (using Visual C++, and no it isn't an MFC function).

Regards,


Paul
