Re: [Dev-C++] version of commctrl.h

[Yeoh H. <ye...@ye...>]

Hi,

If you take a look at commctrl.h, here's what you'll find.
#if (_WIN32_IE >= 0x0300)
typedef struct tagINITCOMMONCONTROLSEX {
 DWORD dwSize;
 DWORD dwICC;
} INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX,*LPINITCOMMONCONTROLSEX;
#endif

That's why you are getting undeclared error message for
INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX.

To solve this you need to define _WIN32_IE to be at least 0x0300.

One method is to add this define is in you code, before you include
commctrl.h
#define _WIN32_IE 0x0400
#include <commctrl.h>

Or, you can add the define to the compiler options.

Best Regards,
Yeoh
