I got a project from the web. The "solution" and the "projects" files were coded for VS2010 but I changed the version numbers and I could load them in my VS2005. I tried to build the solution and I get errors like:
'WOW64_CONTEXT': undeclared identifier
'wow64Context': undeclared identifier
'Wow64GetThreadContext': is not a member of 'global namespace'
etc...
I know from the doc that WOW64_CONTEXT must be declared inside winnt.h. On my system, it is not. What is going on? I'm new to WoW but I understand the concept. I just never used it.
Here is my setup (NOTE: I have Intel CC 9 installed but I don't use it for this project. I use the MS compiler):

Can somebody help me?
In the docs, see that "Minimum supported client: Vista" section.
You'll need a recent version of the Windows SDK that covers Vista, and also need to define the WINVER and _WIN32_WINNT macros to 0x600 or higher to enable Vista functions. The documentation is here and Raymond Chen gives some history on his blog.
