SYMPTOMS
========
When compiling a Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) application that uses the
Windowsx.h header file and calls CWnd::SubclassWindow(), you may get the
following error:
warning C4003: not enough actual parameters for macro 'SubclassWindow' error
C2059: syntax error : ')'
CAUSE
=====
The Windowsx.h file is a header that includes message cracker macros to help
programmers write more portable Windows-based applications. The header file
contains a preprocessor macro named SubclassWindow. The macro bears the same
name as the CWnd::SubclassWindow() member function. The macro has two
parameters; the member function has only one parameter. The preprocessor tries
to expand the symbol SubclassWindow when it is found.
RESOLUTION
==========
You can un-define the macro as follows:
#undef SubclassWindow
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the
beginning of this article.
