Okay, so ty at all@@!!

| Code: | #include <windows.h>
#include <iostream.h>
#include <string.h>
#define WA_PLAY 0x9C6D
#define WA_STOP 0x9C6F
int main ()
{
char frag[8];
HWND hWindow = FindWindow(NULL, "Winamp 5.35");
cout<<"Enter something: ";
cin.getline(frag, 8);
if (frag="play")
{
SendMessage(hWindow, WM_COMMAND, WA_PLAY, NULL);
}
if (frag="stop")
{
SendMessage(hWindow, WM_COMMAND, WA_STOP, NULL);

Use the class of Winamp when using FindWindow. It has not changed, ever.
| Code: | | HWND WinampWindow = FindWindow("Winamp v1.x", NULL); |
Using the window name wont work because Winamp puts the song name into the window title while it plays.

What's the error message?
Your main function states to return an int, but nothing is returned.
You used the assignment operator "=" to compare instead of using the comparison operator "==".
You compared char arrays with an operator instead of a function such as strcmp.

The main error was due to his includes.
#include <iostream.h> does not work in VS2005, instead, just need #include <iostream>
Next, as you pointed out, the comparing operators were incorrect as they were attempting to set the value.

That would be why  some changes since the two. Give me a little bit, busy working, and I will rewrite it for 6.
Whoops, >.> my fault on that one for the compile issues as well. Forgot the return, as for your other issues. VC6 compiles in Multibyte by default so remove the L infront of the the class name.
| Code: | #include <windows.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
#define WA_PLAY 0x9C6D
#define WA_STOP 0x9C6F
int main ()
{
char szInput[8];
HWND hWindow = FindWindow("Winamp v1.x", NULL);
cout << "Enter something: ";
cin.getline(szInput, sizeof(szInput));
if ( stricmp(szInput, "play") == 0 )
{
SendMessage(hWindow, WM_COMMAND, WA_PLAY, NULL);
}
if ( stricmp(szInput, "stop") == 0 )
{
SendMessage(hWindow, WM_COMMAND, WA_STOP, NULL);
}
return 0;
} |
That should do it.

I suggest that you update to VS2005 as VS6 is a bit outdated and such.
As for going back to the top, I never did much with console apps, but goto's should work fine.
| Code: | #include <windows.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
#define WA_PLAY 0x9C6D
#define WA_STOP 0x9C6F
int main ()
{
char szInput[8];
HWND hWindow = FindWindow("Winamp v1.x", NULL);
start:
cout << "Enter something: ";
cin.getline(szInput, sizeof(szInput));
if ( stricmp(szInput, "play") == 0 )
{
SendMessage(hWindow, WM_COMMAND, WA_PLAY, NULL);
}
if ( stricmp(szInput, "stop") == 0 )
{
SendMessage(hWindow, WM_COMMAND, WA_STOP, NULL);
}
if( stricmp(szInput, "exit") == 0 )
{
goto exit;
}
goto start;
exit:
return 0;

wohooo, thx!! You're so nice.
I start loving C++. I already looked up for some c/c++ books to lend them from the school-library, but they only got delphi and VB books  .
I guess I'll buy one soon.
