[Dev-C++] Sample code COMMON CONTROLS: DATETIME PICKER & make.exe errors

[Roberto R. <rob...@ar...>]

Hi all,

I tried to compile & run some sample win32 code with dev-cpp 4.9.6.1 
from this site: http://www.foosyerdoos.fsnet.co.uk/. Im have not 
experience win c++ programer so just mean trying to do know how.

Anyone knows this example?

//COMMON CONTROLS: DATETIME PICKER - Copyright © 2000-2002 Ken Fitlike
...
//DevC++(MinGW) must link with -lcomctl32. bcc5.5,msvc (must link with 
comctl32.lib)
#include <commctrl.h>
....

I found the comctl32.lib in the SDK package,  I made a empty proyect 
with the sample code and put in proyect linker options 
-l"c:/dev-cpp/lib/comctl32.lib" lib location, rebuild again, this is the 
building dump:

Building Makefile: "C:\Dev-Cpp\c\Makefile.win"

cannot find -lc:/dev-cpp/lib/comctl32.lib
make.exe: *** [windows_Time.exe] Error 1
Execution terminated

Anyway Im a bit lost.
¿How can I trace it ?. Some is wrong with the comctl32.lib ? or 
parameter mistakes ??
Another samples without comctl32.lib works fine.

Thanks in advance
