Unable to build MaxGUI.Win32MaxGUI in Windows 7

BlitzMax Forums/MaxGUI Module/Unable to build MaxGUI.Win32MaxGUI in Windows 7

Hey. I've come across an error when trying to build the non-XP/Vista driver on Windows 7.

You don't have the latest source.


Ked(Posted 2009) [#3]
That was right out of SVN today.

That is indeed the latest, i just pulled it a few minutes ago.
Im guessing it should have been CreateWindowExW instead ;)

Hmm... unfortunately the version on the SVN seems broken. I have Windows XP SP2 and the mod won't install. The error is in the same file mentioned (win32button.cpp) but the message is differently:

hwnd is not defined in this scope, or something like it.

I installed the official maxgui130 and it's working fine.
Could someone take a look if there's something wrong please?

Are you using the SVN version of BlitzMax too?

If not, you may have to checkout that too in order to build the latest MaxGUI SVN code.

I'm not sure. It's been a while since I don't update anything. I'll reinstall everything from the SVN just to be sure. Thanks.

I have copied the SVN folder of blitzmax and after trying to build modules, I have the same error of the first thread:

"C:/Arquivos de programas/BlitzMax/mod/maxgui.mod/win32maxgui.mod/win32gui/win32button.cpp: In constructor `Win32Button::Win32Button(BBGroup*, int)':

I've got my problem solved.
I manually deleted all my installation folders and then copied all again from the SVN. Sorry for any trouble. :)
