2450.0. "_CONTEXT problem on WNT alpha" by ULYSSE::CATTOLICO () Fri Mar 07 1997 09:05

    Hi.
    
       With OBB 2.7-11, on WNT 4.0 Alpha, VC++ 4.2,
       I'm having a strange problem.
    
       I am using quickstart. My IDL (one interface, one simple method)
       compiles and works fine on my WNT 4.0 INTEL machine (VC++ 4.2).
       On Alpha, instead, I succesfully generate C (or CXX)
       files, then, just after the first compilation begins,
       I get some warning from the compiler and the following  error:
    
       d:\msdve\include\winnt.h: Error C2011: '_CONTEXT' :
         'struct' type redefinition
    
       nmake: fatal error U1077 ...
    
    This happens also with any of the bank example idl files.
    
    Any hint?
    
    Thanks in advance
    
    Paolo

	See note 2414 in this notes file. OBB does not support VC++V4.2. It supports VC++ V4.0. There are many reported problems with VC++ V4.2. They relate to the compiler more than to ObjectBroker.

	What line number in winnt.h ? You could specify the preprocess only option to the compiler and then search for _CONTEXT to see where it is defined twice.
