.NET Forum / Languages / Managed C++ / March 2005FindWindowEx - undeclared identifier/not a member of global namesp
Hi, I'm trying to find a window handle using FindWindowEx. I get an error undecalred identifier if I use FindWindowEx() and not a member of global namespace if I use ::FindWindowEx()... Even though FindWindow() works perfectly well. I have imported <windows.h> but being quite new to C++ I can't find a solution, can anyone help me? > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > I have imported <windows.h> but being quite new to C++ I can't find a > solution, can anyone help me? All I can think of it that it's wrapped in the preprocessor conditional... #if(WINVER >= 0x0400)  SignatureJeff Partch [VC++ MVP] Sorry, some C++ stuff is new to me.... including preprocessor conditionals, where can I find it and is it possible to change them to always include the findwindowex? > All I can think of it that it's wrapped in the preprocessor conditional... > > #if(WINVER >= 0x0400) You're probably running VC++ on Win95, where WINVER is lower. Just #define WINVER 0x0400 // ^^ put this before you include windows.h #include <windows.h> Your program won't run of course, because your Windows is too old.

FindWindowEx will only run on NT4 or later and Win95 or later, so WINVER must be defined as at least 0x0400. Your program will not run on NT3.1 or 3.5, though that's not likely to matter! -- Sev Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
