Hi,

I am trying to create a window control, using the API call
CreateWindow.

I have prototyped the procedure in the global map section like below.

     MODULE('Windows.DLL')
         CreateWindow(*CSTRING, *CSTRING, ULONG, SIGNED, SIGNED,
                                  SIGNED, SIGNED, UNSIGNED, UNSIGNED,
                                  UNSIGNED, ULONG), UNSIGNED, Pascal,
                                  RAW
     END

The program compiles ok, only the linker complains about CreateWindow
(unresolved external).

I have used API calls before in exactly the same way without any
problems. My API bible says the procedure exists, the winapi program
from topspeed says it exists. Why can't the linker find it?

Any help is greatly appreciated,

Adriaan van Ieperen

Hi,

Try adding to the end of the prototype

,name('CreateWindowA')

as this function also has a unicode version.

I tried it and still have the unresolved external.

Hi Andy,

CreateWindow (or CreateWindowA/CreateWindowW) is not in the supplied
win32.libm CreateWindowExA and CreateWindowExW are.
