i am just trying basic C++ GUI and i ran this code from a tutorial site.
#include <windows.h>
int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInst, HINSTANCE hPrev, LPSTR pszCmdLine, int iCmdShow)
{
MessageBox(NULL, "Hello World", "Testing", 0);
return 0;
}when i run it, it executes and makes a animation of a bouncing ball. any ideas on what made this so messed up?
-using visual C++ 2008
-running vista 64 bit, home edition
nothing weird in my compiler; just got a simple textbox saying hello world. used visual c++ 2010.
my guess: You compiled to an executable that has the same name as an exe that displays a bouncing ball... and that existing exe is first on your path. Just a guess.
