The following error is from "Compilation-Error Messages" in the
"Microsoft QuickC Compiler Programmer's Guide," Section D.1.2, Page
340, and from "Compiler and Run-Time Errors -- New Messages" in the
Microsoft C Optimizing Compiler file ERRMSG.DOC, on Version 5.00's
Setup Disk and on Version 5.10's Compiler Disk 1, but not in the
"Microsoft C Optimizing Compiler User's Guide" for those versions:
C2174 function : actual has type void : parameter number,
parameter list number
An attempt was made to pass a void argument to a function.
Formal parameters and arguments to functions cannot have
type void; however, they can have type void * (pointer
to void). This error occurs in calls that return a pointer
to a function. The first number indicates which argument
was in error; the second number indicates which argument
list contained the invalid argument.
When the compiler encounters any of the errors listed in this section,
it continues parsing the program (if possible) and outputs additional
error messages. However, no object file is produced.
