dear fellow cygwin users, i run into problem compiling a program, the section with the problem is in this function:
char *FFSS_GetOS(void)
{
#ifdef _WIN32
if(FFSS_WinServerVersion[0] == 0)
{
DWORD dwVersion = GetVersion();
if(dwVersion < 0x80000000) /* Windows NT/2K/XP */
{
DWORD dwWindowsMajorVersion = (DWORD)(LOBYTE(LOWORD(dwVersion)));
DWORD dwWindowsMinorVersion = (DWORD)(HIBYTE(LOWORD(dwVersion)));
if(dwWindowsMajorVersion < 4) /* Win32s */
SU_strcpy(FFSS_WinServerVersion,"Win32s",sizeof(FFSS_WinServerVersion));
else if(dwWindowsMajorVersion == 4) /* Windows NT 4 */
SU_strcpy(FFSS_WinServerVersion,"WinNT",sizeof(FFSS_WinServerVersion));
else /* 2K/XP */
{
if(dwWindowsMinorVersion == 0)
SU_strcpy(FFSS_WinServerVersion,"Win2k",sizeof(FFSS_WinServerVersion));
else
SU_strcpy(FFSS_WinServerVersion,"WinXP",sizeof(FFSS_WinServerVersion));
}
}
else /* Windows 9x */
SU_strcpy(FFSS_WinServerVersion,"Win9x",sizeof(FFSS_WinServerVersion));
}
return FFSS_WinServerVersion;
#elif __CYGWIN32__
if(FFSS_WinServerVersion[0] == 0)
{
DWORD dwVersion = GetVersion();
if(dwVersion < 0x80000000) /* Windows NT/2K/XP */
{
DWORD dwWindowsMajorVersion = (DWORD)(LOBYTE(LOWORD(dwVersion)));
DWORD dwWindowsMinorVersion = (DWORD)(HIBYTE(LOWORD(dwVersion)));
if(dwWindowsMajorVersion < 4) /* Win32s */
SU_strcpy(FFSS_WinServerVersion,"Cyg-Win32s",sizeof(FFSS_WinServerVersion));
else if(dwWindowsMajorVersion == 4) /* Windows NT 4 */
SU_strcpy(FFSS_WinServerVersion,"Cyg-WinNT",sizeof(FFSS_WinServerVersion));
else /* 2K/XP */
{
if(dwWindowsMinorVersion == 0)
SU_strcpy(FFSS_WinServerVersion,"Cyg-Win2k",sizeof(FFSS_WinServerVersion));
else
SU_strcpy(FFSS_WinServerVersion,"Cyg-WinXP",sizeof(FFSS_WinServerVersion));
}
}
else /* Windows 9x */
SU_strcpy(FFSS_WinServerVersion,"Cyg-Win9x",sizeof(FFSS_WinServerVersion));
}
return FFSS_WinServerVersion;
#else /* !_WIN32 & !__CYGWIN32__ */
return FFSS_SERVER_OS;
#endif /* _WIN32 */
}
this is not a critical function as what it does is to return what operation systems it
is running on.
the program comes without the #include <windef.h> directive. it doesn't compile
because DWORD is not defined. after i added the windef.h header, it still doesn't
compile and the error mrssage is:
In file included from utils.c:4:
/usr/include/w32api/windef.h:273: parse error before "void"
has anyone successfully used the windef.h header and could you tell me how to compile
program like this?
my windef.h is attached here.
regards,
lionel
