System: VisualStudio 2003/C++ Hi. I'm trying to build event-driven mechanism in allegro. I had in mind to build EventManager thread object witch would process any specified event. But I can't use CreateThread or WaitForMultipleObjects because that functions are specified in "windows.h" and If I try to include it, the BITMAP struct specified in allegro will collide with windows-one. Any idea on how to build event-mechanism without win32 thread functions? Or at least how to fix this BITMAP collide error? I'm using standard win32 console project and I had to

#define USE_CONSOLE

to get rid of "error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _main referenced in function _mainCRTStartup" linker error. [Edited by - Odiee on December 5, 2007 2:57:24 AM]

The problem is solved by including <winalleg.h> after including <allegro.h>
this gives access to all win32 thread specific functions.
