GetLongPathName Undeclared
- by iwizardpro
When I try to compile my code with the function GetLongPathName(), the compiler tells me that the function is undeclared.
I have already read the MSDN documentation located @ http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa364980%28VS.85%29.aspx. But, even though I included those header files, I am still getting the undeclared function error. Which header file(s) am I supposed to include when using the function?
#include <Windows.h>
#include <WinBase.h>
#define DLLEXPORT extern "C" __declspec(dllexport)
DLLEXPORT char* file_get_long(char* path_original)
{
long length = 0;
TCHAR* buffer = NULL;
if(!path_original)
{
return "-10";
}
length = GetLongPathName(path_original, NULL, 0);
if(length == 0)
{
return "-10";
}
buffer = new TCHAR[length];
length = GetLongPathName(path_original, buffer, length);
if(length == 0)
{
return "-10";
}
return buffer;
}
And, if it makes a difference, I am currently compiling using Dev-C++ on a Windows Vista 64-bit.
