The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual C++, Macintosh Cross-Development Addon 2.0
This article was previously published under Q139603 SYMPTOMS
When you compile a project for a Macintosh target, the following error
messages occur:
C:\MSVC20\MFC\INCLUDE\afxwin.h(1908) : error C2061: syntax error :
identifier 'LPSCROLLINFO'
C:\MSVC20\MFC\INCLUDE\afxwin.h(1910) : error C2061: syntax error :
identifier 'LPSCROLLINFO'
C:\MSVC20\MFC\INCLUDE\afxwin1.inl(20) : fatal error C1903: unable to
recover from previous error(s); stopping compilation
CAUSE
The identifier LPSCROLLINFO is not defined in the Afxwin.h file in version
3.2 of the Microsoft Foundation classes.
RESOLUTION
Run the provided Setupmfc.exe program, and add a path for the MFC 3.0
include directory to the INCLUDE environment variable in the development
environment. More details follow.
The Visual C++ 2.2 Setup program installs a program called Setupmfc.exe in
the Msvc20\Bin directory and installs an "MFC 3.0 Source Setup" icon for it
in the Microsoft Visual C++ 2.0 program group. To see the icon, you need to
have the Macintosh add-on installed before you install Visual C++ 2.2. Here
are the necessary steps:
- Use Setupmfc.exe to reinstall MFC 3.0 source code. Make sure you use
the Visual C++ 2.0 compact disc when the program asks for the MFC 3.0
source directory. Using the Visual C++ 2.2 compact disc will not work.
- Open the Visual C++ development environment. On the Tools menu, click
Directories. Under Platform, click Macintosh. Under Show Directories
for, click Include files. Remove the existing header file directory for
MFC 3.2. Click the Add button, and add a path for the MFC 3.0 include
directory. For example:
STATUS
