All:
I tried building xfddx_3 on NT 4.0 using MSVC++ 6.0 and ran into the
following problem:
Compiling Precompiled Header - precomp.h for i386
xfddx_ddi.h(87) : error C2040: 'ULONG_PTR' : 'unsigned long *' differs in
levels of indirection from 'unsigned long'
The error line, 87, is
typedef PULONG ULONG_PTR;
As far as I understand it, this is not the erroneous line. Instead the
error occurred at a place where ULONG_PTR is used. Why does the compiler
report this line?
My setup seems ok since I can build the framebuf sample.
Thanks,
-Bernd
