Fiber - Threads (#include problem?) 1

[IonelBurtan]

Hello,

I have the following unexplained problem:
This is the cpp file of a Win32 Console Project from VC++ with SP3.

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <windows.h>
#include <winbase.h>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

long WINAPI TestThreadProcedure(long lParameter);

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
HANDLE hThread, hEvent;
DWORD dwThreadId;

hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, FALSE, FALSE, &quot;Event1&quot;
hThread = CreateThread(NULL,0,(LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE)
TestThreadProcedure,
hEvent,0,&dwThreadId);
printf(&quot;Hello World!\n&quot;
SetEvent(hEvent);
return 0;
}

long WINAPI TestThreadProcedure(long lParameter)
{
string s=&quot;test&quot;;
printf(&quot;Hello World from thread!\n&quot;
ConvertThreadToFiber((LPVOID)&s);
return 0L;
}

At compile time I get the error &quot;
&quot;ConvertThreadToFiber undeclared identifier&quot;
I have included &quot;winbase.h&quot; where this function header is declare, no change. I can'd explain myself what's wrong. (I have looked in winbase and windows.h for #include, #ifdef and #ifndef and I am out of ideeas)

Please help me with this,
Thanx s-)

try to put before #include<windows>
#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0400 John Fill

Yes, finally.
It works, thank you.

Is this a rule to include this #define when you are using commands that are newer to NT or what? s-)
