Redefining HRGN and HDC types leads to conflicts in C++Builder

created 12 years ago

There're many conflicts in using standard #define's in PS subsystem that is a complete show-stopper just because it makes impossible to compile certain project (without manual DXpress .hpp's fixes).

Please, try to compile the attached project and see it yourself.

As a summary:

  1. there's a conflicting redefinition of HDC standard symbol (!) in dxPSBaseGridLnk module
  2. there's a conflicting using of "SelectFont" symbol - that is actually a macro defined in windowsx.h - for naming several class methods.

It would be great if attached project could be recompiled successfully without any additional code fixing after DXpress package installation.
