Hi all,

I'm having a problem with GetStockObject under Digital Mars, as well as minGW32.

The following works fine in Visual C++:

wmainclass.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH) GetStockObject (WHITE_BRUSH);

But when I try to compile this ins Digital Mars or minGW32, I get the following linker error:

Error 42: Symbol Undefined: _GetStockObject@4

AFAIK, GetStockObject is a standard Win API call, so I don't see why this isn't working. Can anyone give me a hand?

Thanks!

Include GDI32.lib into you project's link phase...
