Hi,
I have this code that I am trying to compile, but I am getting the
following errors

'CoInitializeSecurity': identifier not found
'EOAC_NONE' : undeclared identifier

I have pasted the code below

// Using_WMI1.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console
application.
//

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "wbemidl.h"
#include <comdef.h>

#endif

{

//why it was not working in XP.

Any help I can get will be appreciated. Thanks

This is a little off topic on comp.lang.c++.

Hi.

PLEASE DON'T CROSSPOST TO ENVIRONMENT-SPECIFIC GROUPS AND CLC++.

Follow-ups set for pure C++ responses.

This means you haven't declared that identifier, most probably you've
forgotten to include some header.


> 'EOAC_NONE' : undeclared identifier

Ditto.

None of these are standard C++ headers. Most probably the intention is
that "stdafx.h" should drag in the headers you're missing. Update that
file to include the relevant headers (it's also a good idea to turn off
precompiled header support for your project -- the vendor-specific
variant you're using confuses novices endlessly, allows incorrect code
to compile, and sometimes means correct code doesn't compile).

Redefining a C++ keyword means your code has undefined behavior if it
uses anything from the standard library. And since it apparently uses
'new'...

Although environment-specific, this is a library initialization call.
It's generally unsafe to initialize libraries later than the start of
'main'. In particular, experience with this library is that late
initialization is extremely unsafe -- don't do it.

This is not a standard C++ startup function.

Moreover it's braindead even for this program's intended environment.

Use standard 'main'.

You're welcome.

A search on the VC subdirectories finds it in objidl.h, but you should

#include <objbase.h>

as is stated in the Requirements section of the MSDN description of
CoInitializeSecurity.
