Xinput leads to wint errors

EDN Admin · Jan 14, 2012

i am just trying to creat a simple test program to get data from a Xbox 360 controler to be used later but as soon a I include Xinput the promgram wont compile properly because of winnt.h
I am using VC++ 2010
here is program

<div style="color:black; background-color:white
<pre><span style="color:green /*
X-Box controler interface test

*/

#include <iostream>
#include <Xinput.h>

<span style="color:blue using <span style="color:blue namespace std;

<span style="color:blue int main ()
{
cout <<<span style="color:#a31515 "Hello this must work n";
cin.get();

}
[/code]

<br/>
here is the output from the builds
