Severe warning! With this change BCC no longer compiles C modules! So, never ever modify the include files of your C compiler!

Ok, understood.

Enrico I realize that you can take out the include files and I wish I had a 32\64 bit resource editor like Resource Workshop .. but unfortunately, for Resedit to work properly, Resedit needs to see those include files in the .rc. I have hundreds of .rc's configured to open under Resedit .. I wish I ...

I simply commented out these lines from the .RC:

Code: Select all  Expand view

//#include <windows.h>
//#include <commctrl.h>
//#include <richedit.h>
//#include "resource.h"

And now your sample compiles and runs fine here.

Enrico I have sent you my contribution sample AdoRick.prg and AdoRick.rc and have added the Resedit include files to the .rc .. see below. Rick Lipkin // Generated by ResEdit 1.6.6// Copyright (C) 2006-2015// http://www.resedit.net#include <windows.h>#include <commctrl.h>#include <ric...

Sorry Rick, I need the .RC file not the .H files (that I already have in my BCC72, of course).

Enrico

The e-mail is on its way to you .. I included both header files and have marked the locations I rem'd out.

Rick Lipkin

Can I have the RC file to test here?

Rick,

Please post here the error output

Antonio

I removed the #include <commctrl.h> from all my resources and that fixed the call to Prsht.h but the .rc compile still apparently is looking at combaseapi.h and errors out on line 283 with the symbol PURE already defined.

Rick Lipkin

Rick,

Try removing this line:

#include <commctrl.h>

if that solves the problem, then you can modify the resource script template from Resedit preferences

Antonio Using Resedit the following Include lines are embedded .. probably those are evoking the additional C++ header errors: // Generated by ResEdit 1.6.6// Copyright (C) 2006-2015// http://www.resedit.net#include <windows.h>#include <commctrl.h>#include <richedit.h>#include &quo...
