[ros-dev] Kernel streaming header mess / GUIDs

[Andrew Greenwood]

Thanks for the replies... It *should* build with MSVC now. I'm gonna have
to fire up my laptop at some point and try building ROS on that, to find
out.

The main issue I have at the moment is how to get MinGW/GCC to handle
things. As has been pointed out, the header uses MSVC-specific stuff.

So I need to figure out how to do it in a way so that GCC won't regurgitate
it at me later.

Doing this has at least shut up all the warnings about "cdecl" only being
applicable to functions:
#ifndef DEFINE_GUIDEX
    #ifdef __GNUC__
        #define DEFINE_GUIDEX(name) EXTERN_C const GUID name
    #else
        #define DEFINE_GUIDEX(name) EXTERN_C const CDECL GUID name
    #endif
#endif

Having changed my code now so that it reads:
dev_info = SetupDiGetClassDevsExW(&KSCATEGORY_AUDIO, ......);

It's still doing what it has always done, when linking:
[LD]       output-i386/base/services/audiosrv/audiosrv.exe
obj-i386/base/services/audiosrv/pnp.o: In function
`RegisterForDeviceNotifications':
/home/silverblade/ReactOS/reactos/base/services/audiosrv/pnp.c:132:
undefined reference to `_KSCATEGORY_AUDIO'

(this occurs multiple times, whenever KSCATEGORY_AUDIO is used)

I've tried INIT_GUID and PUT_GUIDS_HERE and all the things I can think of
to make it work. i've even tried removing the EXTERN_C from the macros at
the top.

Where am I going wrong?
