Why do I get this when trying to compile OWLNext?
Q. Why do I get this when trying to compile OWLNext?
Error f:\OWL\Include\owl/commctrl.h 173: ) expected
Error f:\OWL\Include\owl/commctrl.h 390: Type name expected
A. BC 5.02 has old version of commctrl.h (Version 1.0), OWL NExt uses new
header commctrl.h Version 1.2, You probably already have new commctrl32.dll
installed, now you need new header. It can be download in OWL NExt site
under
http://owlnext.starbase21.com/add_ons/add_fil.zip
This file include 3 headers, and them have to be copied under system
include like c:\bc5\include or under %OWLRoot%\include
Where OWLRoot directory where OWL NExt placed. You can read more about it in
OWL NExt site.
Note: if you will use OWL Next and OWL 5.02 you need old commctrl.h, so copy
new one under %OWLRoot%\include
