Question

UPDATE: I thought it was Windsows.h i need to include and you have confirmed this, but when i do include it i get a bunch of messages like the following...

1>C:Program FilesMicrosoft SDKsWindowsv6.0Aincludeobjidl.h(5934) : error C2872:  IDataObject  : ambiguous symbol
1>        could be  C:Program FilesMicrosoft SDKsWindowsv6.0Aincludeobjidl.h(251) : System::Windows::Forms::IDataObject IDataObject 
1>        or        c:windowsmicrosoft.netframeworkv2.0.50727system.windows.forms.dll : System::Windows::Forms::IDataObject

I Don t know how to fix this, eik!

I m trying to call PeekMessage but when I try to compile I get the following errors.

MSG : undeclared identifier HWND : undeclared identifier PM_REMOVE : undeclared identifier

my code is as below...

MSG message;
    while(form->Created)
                {
                    while( PeekMessage( &message, (HWND)form->Handle.ToPointer(), 0, 0, PM_REMOVE ) )
                    {
                        TranslateMessage( &message );
                        DispatchMessage( &message );
                        if( !mainWindow->Created )
                            break;
                    }
                }

I know what these structures are but can get the compiler to recognise them. Am i missing a ref or are there VC++ alias for the same?

Cheers.

Answer 1

You ll get several nasty symbol name collisions when you #include windows.h in a C++/CLI Windows Forms app. But this is self-induced. Pumping your own message loop in a WF app is not appropriate. It already has one, Application::Run(). You can t write your own, you won t be able to preprocess the message appropriately to make stuff like keyboard shortcuts work.

Work through some C++/CLI programming tutorials before you try this.

Answer 2

You need to include a header file containing those definitions. From http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms644943%28VS.85%29.aspx :

Declared in Winuser.h, include Windows.h

So, just do this:

#include <Windows.h>
