Hi all,
I need to use the macro GET_X_LPARAM. But compiler says that "undefined identifier GET_X_LPARAM". I cant find any modules with GET_X_LPARAM defined. Do i miss something ?

I search all modules in " C:\D\dmd2\src\druntime\src\core\sys\windows ". But no luck.

GET_X_LPARAM isn't defined in Phobos's Windows bindings, so you'll need to
provide the definition yourself.

GET_X_LPARAM is defined as a macro in the windowsx.h header of the Windows SDK, as:
	#define GET_X_LPARAM(lp) ((int)(short)LOWORD(lp))

Which can trivially be translated to D as a function, like so:

	int GET_X_LPARAM (T) (T lp)
	{
		import core.sys.windows.windef : LOWORD;

		return cast(int) cast(short) LOWORD(lp);
	}

Hope this helps :)

Thank you for the code and guidance. Let me check it. :)
