In one project I used &nbsp;::TryEnterCriticalSection(<wbr />&amp;g_DataAcc<wbr />ess) and it works just fine, on the next very similar project ther compiler issues this error.<br />
<br />
error C2039: 'TryEnterCriticalSection' : is not a member of '`global namespace''<br />
<br />
In VC6 when I type ::TryEnterCriticalSection the IDE pops up the help box and it allows me to select TryEnterCriticalSection...<wbr /> <br />
<br />
So the IDE know about the function but the compiler does not. <br />
<br />
What do I need to do to get rid of this error ?<br />

Kernel and system programming is the process of creating the software necessary for a computer or device to function and operate other programs. Some operating systems (such as Microsoft Windows) are proprietary, but others, such as the various Linux distributions, are open source.
