Total noob question

This is probably going to sound like a total noob question, but why doesn't the sprintf command work with the CSDK?

I included the library, so it should work. Is there possibly a setting I forgot to check in VS?

TIA,
Ernie

    Ernie,

    It works, sounds like a VS thing. I use it for debug stuff all the time.

    
    #ifdef _DEBUG 
    #include "Windows.h"
    #include 
    #endif
    ...
    #ifdef _DEBUG
     char temp[80];
     sprintf_s(temp, 80, "releasing  0x%x used by 0x%x on thread 0x%x\n\0", &element;.element, usedBy, GetCurrentThreadId());
     OutputDebugStringA(temp);
    #endif
    

    Regards,

    Actually I just noticed what's wrong from the code you posted. I completely forgot to include "windows.h"!

    Thanks Eric.
