[Winpcap-users] Compiling samples in Doc with VC++ 2005

[Gianluca Varenni]

Hi Craig.

What you have created is an application using managed C++ (is it still
called managed extensions? I know that the new C++ managed extensions in 
VS2005 are
*way* different from the ones in VC2002/2003).

By looking at the documentation of C3641 and the project created by VC2005 
choosing "Windows Forms", it seems that the default project uses the 
"/clr:pure", that does not support some Interop scenarios (in particular, 
from a quick read at the MSDN documentation, you can use P/Invoke, but not 
the native C++ Interop features). More documentation can be found here:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/85344whh.aspx

A quick solution to the problem is to switch from "/clr:pure" to "/clr":
- go to the project properties
- choose "Configuration Properties"
- change the property "Common Language Runtime support" from "Pure MSIL 
Common Language Runtime Support" to "Common Language Runtime Support"

Hope it helps
GV

Hi,

I created a project that is of type "Windows Forms".
Replaced the printf statments with MessageBox.
I have set the options as listed in the documentation
"Using WinPcap in your programs" but it fails to
compile and has the following error:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
8\VC\PlatformSDK\include\wspiapi.h(126) : error C3641:
'WspiapiParseV4Address' : invalid calling convention
'__stdcall ' for function compiled with /clr:pure or
/clr:safe

Cheers,

Craig
