I'm using the CreateLink example from the platform sdk but I'm having trouble getting it to work. I checked the archives and there were three posts related to this but not enough to help me, I need some clarification on one of them too.
I've made a short example of where I'm left running into trouble -- this is run against the latest cygwin for windows as I've just upgraded it with setup again this morning. -- #include <windows.h> #include <shlobj.h> int main() { IShellLink* psl; psl->SetPath("testing"); psl->SetDescription("string"); } -- gcc conf1.c -o conf1 -lshell32 conf1.c: In function 'main': conf1.c:8: structure has no member named 'SetPath' conf1.c:9: structure has no member named 'SetDescription' I checked the include files and they do show STDMETHOD wrappers within the IShellLinkA and IShellLinkW structures. I compiled with -save-temps as well and they show up in the conf1.i file as follows: HRESULT(__attribute__((__stdcall__)) * Resolve ) (IShellLinkA *, HWND,DWORD) ; HRESULT(__attribute__((__stdcall__)) * SetPath ) (IShellLinkA *, LPCSTR) ; Does everything look correct? I realize the above C example won't do anything functional however I'm confused as to whats causing it to fail compiling. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
