So I'm trying to update a windows build of a project and encountered this error,
1>C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0\Include\shared\ws2def.h(452): error C2059: syntax error : 'constant'
1>C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0\Include\shared\ws2def.h(452): error C3805: 'constant': unexpected token, expected either '}' or a ','
I determined that winsock.h must have been included earlier than Winsock2.h which was included in the error'd file so I defined
_WINSOCKAPI_
in the project properties to make sure that didn't happen.
However now I get like 8 other errors from files that include afxsock.h saying "error : MFC requires use of Winsock2.h". So is
_WINSOCKAPI_
preventing afxsock.h from including winsock? Because it seems like I have this circular error and only one set of files can build properly.

Im a C# guy thats why I'm lost here, this project claims to have compiled that library for Windows https://soildgeo.codeplex.com/releases/view/108738
the folder comes with Include,Lib64 and Bin64 folders. If I'm not mistaken, I only need to copy .lib files to the VC/lib folder and the folders in include to VC/include folder, so that I can start coding against these APIs, they appear in the #include<> intellisense but then they don't compile. my questions are, are my assumptions on this whole process is right ? if not what are the right steps ? and lastly, do I need to use the Dlls found in Bin64 folder at any point ?
Im using VS2013
Thanks in advance

Edit
after adding the WIN32 macro based on an answer below , I got a linker error this time
Error 1 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "class std::basic_ostream > & __cdecl PhysBAM::LOG::cout_Helper(void)" (?cout_Helper#LOG#PhysBAM##YAAEAV?$basic_ostream#DU?$char_traits#D#std###std##XZ) referenced in function "void __cdecl PhysBAM::LOG::anonymous namespace'::dynamic initializer for 'cout''(void)" (??__Ecout#?A0x5bbeb782#LOG#PhysBAM##YAXXZ) C:\Users...\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\Projects\PhysBAMTest\PhysBAMTest\main.obj PhysBAMTest
All those attribute, unused, __attribute__ are what some call GNU-ishms, that is, features specific to the GCC compatible compilers (GCC itself, Clang, ICC and others). But MS VC does not aim for GCC compatibility, so they just don't work.
The people that did the port to Windows managed to remove these construct by using a few precompiler tricks, I think in the file Utilities/PHYSBAM_OVERRIDE.h. But for those to work you have to define the macro WIN32. Do that in the project "C/C++ Preprocessor Settings" page, not in the code, so it will be defined for all the source files at once.
Alternatively, and this IMO would be the correct solution, patch the sources, and replace every occurrence of #ifdef WIN32 or #if defined(WIN32) with #ifdef _WIN32. The macro _WIN32 is always predefined in Win32 and Win64, but the WIN32 is not.
Well, technically you'd have to differentiate each occurence if the issue is about being a Windows system or about being a MSVC compiler (there is a GCC compiler for Windows). And then use _WIN32 for the system dependencies and _MSC_VER for the compiler ones.
And then, if you feel like it, send a patch to the Codeplex project.
UPDATE
About the linker error, that should be easy to fix: just add the necessary "*.lib" file or files to the project. You can add them to the Linker Property Pageof the project.
Additionally what you did with .lib and .h, you need to keep .dll in either in, System32 dir, or in same dir where you have exe.
Answers to this question may help you understand better.
Language: C++/CX & XAML
Environment: Visual Studio 2013 on Windows 8.1
I am trying to use the Amazon Product Advertising API in my Windows Store app. I have an Associates account so I am allowed to use this however I'm having problems implementing the .wsdl file after using wsutil.exe to create a .c and .h file for my project.
The .c and .h files both have errors pointing to identifiers that reside inside WebServices.h.
Since the .c and .h files have a combined length of more than 13k lines of code I'll write out steps to reproduce my problem.
-Navigate to http://webservices.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/AWSECommerceService.wsdl
-Save the file either in a project fold or on the desktop
-Open up a VS2013 command prompt and navigate to where the file resides
-Type "wsutil /wsdl:AWSECommerceService.wsdl"
This produces the .c and .h files that can be used in the project
-Add the .c and .h files to a VC++ Windows Store app project
since the environment language is C++/CX and wsutil gave us a .c file we need to tell the compiler to treat this file as a C++ file otherwise if you try to build like it is it throws an error saying:
Command line error D8048: cannot compile C file '....\New folder\AWSECommerceService.wsdl.c' with the /ZW option
My first attempt at trying to fix this was to remove the /ZW option.
This can be done by right clicking the .c file, click properties, under "General" you will will see "yes(/ZW)" which you can change to "no".
after doing this and trying to build it gives this error:
...\awsecommerceservice.wsdl.c : fatal error C1853: 'Debug\SimpleShop.pch' precompiled header file is from a previous version of the compiler, or the precompiled header is C++ and you are using it from C (or vice versa)
That wasn't the correct fix so I went back and added the /ZW option.
Next I decided to tell the compiler to treat the .c file as a .cpp file by adding the /TP option. You can find this by right clicking the .c file, clicking properties, click Advanced, click the drop down box next to "Compile as" and selected /TP.
Now when trying to build the project errors appear in both the .c and .h files for identifiers that reside in the WebServices.h file.
This is where I'm stuck at. I tried to #include "WebServices.h" into the .h file (which is oddly missing it whereas the .c file is not) and this does nothing to remove any of the errors.
I can find nothing about using the Amazon Product Advertising API inside a windows store app on the internet so all of the attempted fixes came from Win7 or WCF forums. The steps I'm trying to follow are from Amazon on they can be found here (focus on step 4):
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/latest/GSG/GettingSetUp.html
these are the errors:

There are several things going on here:
You need to include the header pch.h at the top of the generated .c file
This sounds like a genuine error in the generated header. Notice a member defined twice.
typedef struct _RelatedItems
{
enum _Relationship Relationship;
WCHAR* RelationshipType;
unsigned __int64 RelatedItemCount;
unsigned __int64 RelatedItemPageCount;
unsigned __int64 RelatedItemPage;
unsigned int RelatedItemCount;
_Field_size_(RelatedItemCount)struct _RelatedItem* RelatedItem;
} _RelatedItems;
The other errors are because the missing identifiers are actually not available for Windows Store apps. Both WS_SERVICE_SECURITY_CALLBACK and WS_CONTRACT_DESCRIPTION are conditionally defined in the SDK header WebServices.h only for Desktop apps
"if WINAPI_FAMILY_PARTITION(WINAPI_PARTITION_DESKTOP)"
I am trying to move an old C++ project to VS2010.
The last version of VS to compile it was VS2005, as far as I know. I already fixed a bunch of errors but now I am stuck,
since I am getting errors in atlplus.h, which is a VC10 header file.

Does anyone have any idea? I've been stuck here since last week.
You need to include atlstr.h before any headers that use CString.
CString has been moved to the atlstr.h header file.
I met the similar problem. please try to include atlbase.h instead of atlstr.h.
You can see a comment line in file atlplus.h:
//Avoid using <atlstr.h> except in the registry templates (for circular dependencies).
I've recently got the source-code on a application. When im trying to build the solution, I get an error in all parts where winnt.h is included. The error codes differs a bit, but they always point to these lines in winnt.h:
typedef void *PVOID;
typedef void * POINTER_64 PVOID64;
and
struct {
DWORD crc;
BYTE rgbReserved[14];
} CRC;
So, what could be the cause of this? winnt.h is a standard header and has not been modified. Does it has something to do with me using VS 2010, or me using 64-bit windows? or is it some sort of configuration which is needed?
EDIT:
Here's the exact error-codes:
1>C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\include\winnt.h(290): error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'PVOID64'

You need to include windows.h rather than winnt.h. When you include windows.h it will, in turn, include winnt.h. You need to do it this way for the necessary macros to be in place that are needed to compile winnt.h.
In this case, POINTER_64 is defined in BaseTsd.h like this:
#define POINTER_64 __ptr64
But if you include winnt.h before including windows.h then POINTER_64 is not defined.
If you are using DirectX SDK, try changing the VC++ Directories for include and lib to be searched last.
It looks like your configuration of the Windows SDK is invalid.
This error is caused by the fact that the compiler is unable to recognize the 'POINTER_64' statement.
You may workaround this problem by replacing 'POINTER_64' with '__ptr64'.
I had the same issue recently. Then I've reinstalled the latest version of the Windows SDK and this fixed the problem.
UPDATE
#David Heffernan, correctly points to the fact that one should include windows.h instead of winnt.h
Try to remove DirectX SDK if you have one.
Here bug is accepted:
http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/508204/vc10-0-errors-while-compiling-winnt-h
Corrected manually syntax in winnt.h :
typedef void * POINTER_64 PVOID64; => typedef void * POINTER_64, * PVOID64;
If you are using librdkafka, you will get this error whenever "Windows.h" included.
I fixed it by rename "librdkafka/include/basetsd.h" to a different name, or access
this library header via sub path!
I think the author of this library made this file to deal with OS platform compatibility. But with the same file name "basetsd.h" as Windows Core, it just confusing Visual Studio.
I'm trying to get libcurl to work with my C++ project.
I've added libcurl to my project.
I've also added the header files, preprocessor and linker configuration.
When adding #include to my project I get a lot of winnt.h errors:
c:\program files (x86)\microsoft sdks\windows\v7.0a\include\winnt.h(1084): error C2988: unrecognizable template declaration/definition
1>c:\program files (x86)\microsoft sdks\windows\v7.0a\include\winnt.h(1084): error C2059: syntax error : '('
1>c:\program files (x86)\microsoft sdks\windows\v7.0a\include\winnt.h(1084): error C2090: function returns array
...
What is the reason to this problem?
Thanks.
