链接器不想识别lib文件

Question

I want to create a queue timer . I call CreateTimerQueueTimer but it doesn't compile because it says

undefined reference to CreateTimerQueueTimer

and I showed the linker the path to the Kernel32.lib.

I use CodeBlocks, right click on project name -> Build Option -> Linker Setting tab -> then clicked Add and went to the lib path, but it didn't help. What causes this problem?

CreateTimerQueueTimer is a more recent API in Win32. To enable it you need to define _WIN32_WINNT as 0x0500 or later. Add to your preproccessor defines _WIN32_WINNT=0x0500.
