Weird #if/#endif error...
Author
Perhaps someone can help me with this problem. I was compiling my code, which compiled fine. It had a run time error because of an invalid pointer. When I closed down the project and came back to it later, I got the following error when I tried to compile (without modifying any code whatsoever).
fatal error C1070: mismatched #if/#endif pair in file '(include dir here)\winuser.h'
line 11832... This line is the last line in the winuser.h header file. I have no idea why this happens but it gives me the same error three times. (I have 3 .cpp files in the project, I am assuming 1 error for every file) If anyone can assist, please do. Thank You.

Yes it is, here is the last bulk of code.
#if !defined(RC_INVOKED) /* RC complains about long symbols in #ifs */
#if defined(ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED) && (ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED != 0)
#include "winuser.inl"
#endif /* ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED */
#endif /* RC */
#ifdef __cplusplus
#endif /* __cplusplus */
#endif /* !_WINUSER_ */
#if !defined(RC_INVOKED) /* RC complains about long symbols in #ifs */
#if defined(ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED) && (ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED != 0)
#include "winuser.inl"
#endif /* ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED */
#endif /* RC */
#ifdef __cplusplus
#endif /* __cplusplus */
#endif /* !_WINUSER_ */
well, there are 3 #if and 4 #endif.
now, lets see,we have:
#if !defined(RC_INVOKED) /* RC complains about long symbols in #ifs */
matching:
#endif /* RC */
than
#if defined(ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED) && (ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED != 0)
matching
#endif /* ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED */
than
#ifdef __cplusplus
matching
#endif /* __cplusplus */
which leaves us with:
#endif /* !_WINUSER_ */

schue, your logic may not always work out properly. For example, if there is an #ifndef _WINUSER_ somewhere earlier in the file, there may not be a mismatch at all in that particular header.
Check the modified date of winuser.h - if it is any time recent, look for a replacement copy. Otherwise clum is probably correct - that there's a missing directive in your own code. Look for any directives before the #include of winuser.h and make sure they don't have mismatches. Sometimes compilers can have a hard time figuring out which file the error is actually in, and give you slightly misguided results - this is especially common with preprocessor directives.
