Hello,
I have a problem when building the demoapp project using VC6 in winxpsp2. I use directshow in microsoft windows SDK 2008.

What is this problem? Please help me!
Thank you.

If you use VC++ 6.0, which is unfortunately outdated since some years and thus no longer supported by Microsoft, then you should try to use the appropriate DirectShow SDK. Your mixing of versions cause your trouble.

You may try


#define NO_DSHOW_STRSAFE


if you want to use the newer SDKs.

The next step is to vary the sequence of the include paths in the project settings as long as you can not compile. Doing thism you can get the correct declarations so you may can compile. I am very sorry for not having the correct sequence of include paths for you.

So where do I put that define command?

Thank you.

stdafx.h is a good place for this #define. However, it wont fix your problem.
