Hi all,
I am currently learning windows programming. I have the book windows95 programming for dummies.(bargin bin for $5)Now i typed in the first program i.e. Hello world. This hello world is the windows one. I had one error. This is the section of code with my error in it.
wndClass.style =0;
wndClass.lpfnWndProc = WindowProc; //callback fn
wndClass.cbClsExtra = 0;
wndClass.cbWndExtra = 0;
wndClass.hInstance = hInstance;
wndClass.hIcon = LoadIcon(NULL,IDI_APPLICATION);
wndClass.hCursor = LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_ARROW);
wndClass.hbrBackground = GetStockObject(WHITE_BRUSH);
wndClass.lpszMenuName = NULL;
wndClass.lpszClassName = szAppName;
sorry message board messed it up a bit but my error is in the line with the wndClass.hbrBackground = GetStockObject(WHITE_BRUSH). Now when i compile it says it cant convert a void to a brush. Now what the heck does that mean???? Can some one be so kind as to help me with this problem?
thanks,
