- Subject: creating shortcuts.. question
I'm using the CreateLink example from the platform sdk but I'm having
trouble getting it to work. I checked the archives and there were three
posts related to this but not enough to help me, I need some clarification
on one of them too.
I've made a short example of where I'm left running into trouble -- this is
run against the latest cygwin for windows as I've just upgraded it with
setup again this morning.

#include <windows.h>
#include <shlobj.h>
int main() {
IShellLink* psl;
psl->SetPath("testing");
psl->SetDescription("string");
}
--
gcc conf1.c -o conf1 -lshell32
conf1.c: In function 'main':
conf1.c:8: structure has no member named 'SetPath'
conf1.c:9: structure has no member named 'SetDescription'
I checked the include files and they do show STDMETHOD wrappers within the
IShellLinkA and IShellLinkW structures. I compiled with -save-temps as well
and they show up in the conf1.i file as follows:
HRESULT(__attribute__((__stdcall__)) * Resolve ) (IShellLinkA *,
HWND,DWORD) ;
HRESULT(__attribute__((__stdcall__)) * SetPath ) (IShellLinkA *,
LPCSTR) ;
Does everything look correct? I realize the above C example won't do
anything functional however I'm confused as to whats causing it to fail
compiling.
