I'am new to wingdi. As I tried to include my wingdi.h in my borland C++ 5.5 program, the compiler shoots the following errors:
Error E2303 C:\BORLAND\BCC55\INCLUDE\wingdi.h 269: Type name expected
Error E2139 C:\BORLAND\BCC55\INCLUDE\wingdi.h 269: Declaration missing ;
Error E2303 C:\BORLAND\BCC55\INCLUDE\wingdi.h 270: Type name expected

Error E2344 C:\BORLAND\BCC55\INCLUDE\wingdi.h 271: Earlier declaration of '_DRAW

I suppose they are in the header file, but what do they mean?How should I solve the problem? Please help!

probably because you can't include that file (wingdi.h) directly in your program. include windows.h instead, and it will include all the necessary header files.
