Does anyone know how I can get rid of these macro redefinition warnings in Visual Studio 2012 Express?

I found this by googling "redefinition of DXGI_STATUS_OCCLUDED":

This is actually addressed in instructions for mixing the Windows 8.0 SDK and DirectX SDK on MSDN.

Wherever "d3dx9.h", "d3dx10.h", or "d3dx11.h" are included in your project, be sure to explicitly include "d3d9.h", "d3d10.h" and "dxgi.h", or "d3d11.h" and "dxgi.h" first to ensure you are picking up the newer version. You can disable warning C4005 if needed; however, this warning indicates you are using the older version of these headers.

Yeah, I came across that too but it doesn't work. How do I disable the warnings in VS 2012 Express?

[MJP]

Don't disable the warnings. You have a big problem (you're including two versions of the same header) and the compiler is telling you about it. Follow the instructions in the article that was linked above, specifically the part about properly setting up the order of your include directories.

[sunnysideup]

Remove all references to DXGIType.h in your project. This header doesn't exist in the Windows SDK, and the DirectX SDK version conflicts with the new winerror.h.

That seems to be my problem. How do I "remove all refernces to DXGIType.h".

[sunnysideup]

Should I just use the Windows SDK version of d3d11.h? I'm confused.

[sunnysideup]

Oh fudge it... I'll just disable the warning for now and deal with it later. I haven't been using Direc3D long enough to start losing hair over it .

[mhagain]

That's a surefire way to really start losing hair over it.

The problem is caused by your compiler/linker settings referencing two different versions of the headers - one that shipped with VS2012 and one that shipped with an older DXSDK. I'm guessing that you've upgraded a project from 2010 to 2012 here, yes? So just get rid of the older DXSDK headers and libs from your project options and the warnings will go away; it's that simple.

It was a joke guys. Lighten up a little...
