To anyone that has CodeWarrior and knows Visual C++

Unknown

Ok here is my problem: i just got Windows 95 Programming For Dummies and it said to compile the programs with Visual C++ but all i have is CodeWarrior. CodeWarrior has MFC support so i thought it would be alright if i compiled it with that. After i typed the hello, world program and i had three errors. Two were spelling mistakes and i still can't figure out why the third one is wrong because i copied it exactly. Here is the little piece of code:

-------------------------------------------------------

wndClass.style = 0;

wndClass.lpfnWndProc= WindowProc;

wndClass.cbClsExtra = 0;

wndClass.cbWndExtra = 0;

wndClass.hInstance = hInstance;

wndClass.hIcon = LoadIcon(NULL,IDI_APPLICATION);

wndClass.hCursor = LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_ARROW);

wndClass.hbrBackground = GetStockObject( WHITE_BRUSH );*/

wndClass.lpszMenuName = NULL;

wndClass.lpszClassName = szAppName;

-------------------------------------------------------

there is more to the program but this is the part where i get the error. When i try to compile this CodeWarrior gives me this message:

------------------------------------------------------

Error : illegal implicit conversion from 'void *' to

'HBRUSH__ *'

main.cpp line 42 wndClass.hbrBackground = GetStockObject( WHITE_BRUSH );

-------------------------------------------------------

i hope you understand what i am trying to get fixed. If somebody could please help me i would appreciate it.

Thanks.
