in my idl file, i define a user-define data type as bollow:
typedef struct RasterFileHeader
{
DWORD dwVersion;
LONG nDataOffset;
LONG nBandCount;
LONG nWidth;
LONG nHeight;
enum PixelDataTypeEnum ePDType; // it's a enum type import from another
tlb by importlib(...)
enum ImageModeEnum eImageMode; // it's a enum type import from another
tlb by importlib(...)
LONG nTileWidth;
LONG nTileHeight;
double dResolutionX;
double dResolutionY;
double dOrgX;
double dOrgY;
double dDPIX;
double dDPIY;
double dInvalidValue;
LONG nReserve1;
LONG nReserve2;
LONG nReserve3;
} RasterFileHeader;

when complied, it comes to the error:"error MIDL2337 : unsatisfied forward
declaration".

i has found out that

i has found out that

when i comment the above two enum data type
// enum PixelDataTypeEnum ePDType;
// enum ImageModeEnum eImageMode;

then compile it again, it works without errors.

Is there anybody tell me why?

thanks!

You need to give the values for the enumeration, i.e., enum
PixelDataTypeEnum { 8bit, 16bit, 24bit }, or include the definitions
for ePDType and eImageMode from elsewhere.

Judging the error name it seems that the above is MIDL code not C++, or
you are compiling with a wrong compiler. But, that is just my guess so I
can be wrong.
