Hi All,

I am trying to work with multimedia timers in a MFC based application.

I am including mmsystem.h in my class header

#ifndef __EVOL_CLOCK__
#define __EVOL_CLOCK__
#include <windows.h>

#include <mmsystem.h>
#include "evolDefs.h"
#include "evolClockCallback.h"
#include "evolArray.h"

#define CLOCK_RESOLUTION 1    // 1ms intervals

class evolClock
{
public:
evolClock();
virtual ~evolClock();
UINT    registerEvolCallback(evolClockCallback* func);
UINT    unRegisterEvolCallback(EVOL_CLOCK_HANDLE handle);
UINT    startClock(EVOL_CLOCK_HANDLE handle);
UINT    stopClock(EVOL_CLOCK_HANDLE handle);
protected:
UINT        clockCounter;
evolArray<evolClockCallback*> clocks; }; #endif //__EVOL_CLOCK__

However, when compiling I get the following error

Program Files\dm\bin\sc.EXE -cpp -Ae -mn -C -o+time -D_WINDOWS -ff -Pz -S -3 -a8
-c -gf -D_CONSOLE=1 -D_DEBUG=1 -D_X86_=1 -D_MT=1 -D_WIN32=1 -D_MBCS=1

-D_WIN32=1 -D_MBCS=1 evolution.cpp -oevolution.obj
Error: C:\PROGRAM FILES\DM\BIN\..\include\win32\MMSYSTEM.H(358): parameter list

is not in function parameter list Fatal Error: C:\PROGRAM
FILES\DM\BIN\..\include\win32\MMSYSTEM.H(487): too many errors Lines Processed:
81717  Errors: 5  Warnings: 0 Build failed

Im wondering if someone would be good enough to assist me is solvong this problem ? I have run out of ideas myself and I now look to some more knowledgeable people to help me

Thanks in advance

What is at line 358, 363, 406, 411 in your MMSYSTEM.H?
Are you using the latest/greatest platform sdk from MS?
If so where did place it? and did you change your include path to FIRST search this new SDK include dir? (see sc.ini)
