Compiler Error in DEV-C++

问题

I compiled the following code which is declared with #include <strsafe.h> in my C code and I am getting the following compiler errors in DEV-C++. I guess there should be some option in compiler to solve this. Can somebody help to solve this.

The below is my sample code which is taken from MSDN site :

#include <windows.h>
#include <strsafe.h>

void ErrorExit(LPTSTR lpszFunction) 
{ 
    // Retrieve the system error message for the last-error code

    LPVOID lpMsgBuf;
    LPVOID lpDisplayBuf;
    DWORD dw = GetLastError(); 

    FormatMessage(
        FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER | 
        FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM |
        FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS,
        NULL,
        dw,
        MAKELANGID(LANG_NEUTRAL, SUBLANG_DEFAULT),
        (LPTSTR) &lpMsgBuf,
        0, NULL );

    // Display the error message and exit the process

    lpDisplayBuf = (LPVOID)LocalAlloc(LMEM_ZEROINIT, 
        (lstrlen((LPCTSTR)lpMsgBuf) + lstrlen((LPCTSTR)lpszFunction) + 40) * sizeof(TCHAR)); 
    StringCchPrintf((LPTSTR)lpDisplayBuf, 
        LocalSize(lpDisplayBuf) / sizeof(TCHAR),
        TEXT("%s failed with error %d: %s"), 
        lpszFunction, dw, lpMsgBuf); 
    MessageBox(NULL, (LPCTSTR)lpDisplayBuf, TEXT("Error"), MB_OK); 

    LocalFree(lpMsgBuf);
    LocalFree(lpDisplayBuf);
    ExitProcess(dw); 
}

void main()
{
    // Generate an error

    if(!GetProcessId(NULL))
        ErrorExit(TEXT("GetProcessId"));
}

A sample of errors from the huge set of errors.

A part of strsafe.h file from where I am getting the above errors :

回答1:

__nullterminated, __out_opt, __in, __in_opt and other such words are Microsoft-specific keywords. When you use gcc you can just define them to be empty macros like

#define __in
#define __deref_out_range(A,B)
... and so on

Insert these defines before the includes.

Or as the comments suggest avoid using the <strsafe.h>

EDIT:

MinGW (x64 build from http://equation.com) compiles this code above quietly (even with strsafe.h) with just a simple command:

gcc -c Test.cpp -o Test.exe -lstdc++
