VC++ ("include" problemand directx,platfor m SDK

untitled

i included the following line to VC++ after i installed the directx
SDK and platform SDK.
#include "DShow.h"

i configured c directories for the include and lib to both directx SDX
and platform SDK.
now just after i added the above line i got this messages:

D:\Program\Micr osoft DirectX SDK (April 2007)\Include\s trsafe.h(221) :
error C3641: 'StringCchCopyA ' : invalid calling convention '__stdcall
' for function compiled with /clr:pure or /clr:safe
D:\Program\Micr osoft DirectX SDK (April 2007)\Include\s trsafe.h(222) :
error C3641: 'StringCchCopyW ' : invalid calling convention '__stdcall

D:\Program\Micr osoft DirectX SDK (April 2007)\Include\s trsafe.h(333) :
error C3641: 'StringCbCopyA' : invalid calling convention '__stdcall '
for function compiled with /clr:pure or /clr:safe

actually i got lots of them but i copied-pasted only three.

what is the problem?

Your question is off topic since it does not deal with anything
concerning the C++ language, in the future try a group dedicated to your
platform/library (VC++ and DirectX) for better answers. For some
suggestions of which groups might be right take a look in the FAQ:
http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lit...t.html#faq-5.9 some
quick searching in the microsoft.publi c.* groups should give you some
more options.

Back to your question: Your problem is that you have created a managed
project (or changed some options manually) and this have the /clr:pure
or /clr:safe switch passed to the compiler. This means that any code
declared as using the stdcall calling convection (about all C++ code out
there) will not be allowed. Create a new, native project or turn of the
switch and it should work.

Frustrated with PHP’s "include"

by: steve | last post by:

I am quite frustrated with php’s include, as I have spent a ton of time on it already... anyone can tell me why it was designed like this (or something I don’t get)? The path in include is relative NOT to the immediate script that is including it, but is relative to the top-level calling script. In practice, this means that you have to constantly worry and adjust paths in includes, based on the startup scripts that call these...

"include" from db

by: steve | last post by:

Hi, I need to do conditional script "include", but like to pull the code from db instead of a file. How do I do that? Reason: I like to implement some complex regex logic, and make it table driven. The regex would include if/then/else type logic, and would like my script to conditionally execute the logic. -- http://www.dbForumz.com/ This article was posted by author's request

#include "bar" negates #include <string> ; how to fix?

by: Danny Anderson | last post by:

Hola! I am working on a program where I am including a library that came with my numerical methods textbook. The "util.h" simply includes a large number of files. I had to change the util.h slightly to adjust path names and also take into account I am working with a case-sensitive OS. My program is below. The sticky point is that adding (#include "util.h") seems to negate the (#include <string>) statement somehow. How can I get...

Problem With Comparison Operator <=> in G++

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
