code added to cope with its absence is broken.
The fix is simple:- add this to dbghelp.h -- or -- to your own code
before you include it:
#ifndef __out_ecount_opt
#define __out_ecount_opt(x)
#endif
#ifndef __in_bcount_opt
#define __in_bcount_opt(x)
#endif
#ifndef __out_bcount_opt
#define __out_bcount_opt(x)
#endif
#ifndef __deref_out_opt
#define __deref_out_opt
#endif
You may also get errors with VC6 about PULONG_PTR and ULONG_PTR, which
are
typedefs in the newer versions of Windows.h.
For VC6 you need:
typedef unsigned long ULONG_PTR;
typedef unsigned long *PULONG_PTR;
Alternatively get a more recent copy of the platform SDK and put it in
your include path.
