Re: DeviceResolutionAware.h and wide string constants

The security cookie is needed to enable the /GS compiler option to work. I
suspect you actually didn't use the default settings but instead choose to
create an empty project (or later deleted the stdafx.h header file that the
new project wizard creates).

The header file DeviceResolutionAware.h include the header file altcecrt.h
which has the following lines in it which cause you to link against
secheck.lib if necessary -- this takes care of the unresolved external you
see

#if defined(_M_ARM) && !defined(_M_ARM) && (_WIN32_WCE<0x500)
#pragme comment(lib, "secchk.lib")
#endif

Could anybody explain such strange effect: (VisualStudio 2005, Smart
Device win32 project, default settings)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <windows.h>

int WinMain(HINSTANCE hInst, HINSTANCE hPrevInst, LPWSTR lpCmdLine, int
nCmdShow)
{
return 0;
}

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All is ok. No errors.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <windows.h>

int WinMain(HINSTANCE hInst, HINSTANCE hPrevInst, LPWSTR lpCmdLine, int
nCmdShow)
{
WCHAR test[] = L"test";
return 0;
}

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Causes 3 errors!

But when we add #include <DeviceResolutionAware.h> - build successful
again.
I can't understand how GDI features header relays to such symbols. It's
very strange for me.
