hello.
having trouble importing WinAPI function EnumWindows.
example:

//******************************************
module main;
pragma(lib, "user32");

alias int function (void*, long)  WNDENUMPROC;
extern (Windows) int EnumWindows(WNDENUMPROC, long);
//extern (Windows) void* CreateToolhelp32Snapshot(int, int);

int main(string[] args)
{
   //auto hSnapshot = CreateToolhelp32Snapshot(0x2, 0);
   EnumWindows( &EnumWindowsProc, 0 );
   return 0;
}

int EnumWindowsProc(void* hwnd, long lParam) {
   return 1;
}
/ / ******************************************
have when compiling error:
Symbol Undefined _EnumWindows@12

other WinAPI functions imported successfully.
the reason for the error?

The second argument is LPARAM, which maps to C's long, but D's long maps to C's long long.

To be safe, use these aliases whenever possible by using:

import core.sys.windows.windows;

These shouldn't be longs. You could call them LPARAM (import core.sys.windows.windows) or int.

A "long" in C is actually an "int" in D. D's "long" is more like C's "long long".

A "long" in C is actually a D "int" on Windows. On Posix it's a D "int" when compiling for 32bit and a D "long" when compiling for 64bit. This is a simplification that holds for the most common platforms available today. For more details see:
