MFC标头中的语法错误

Question

I am trying to compile pgpfone, and I have a problem with the build system which I migrated from VS6 to VS2008 and then to VS2015.

Here is the full log: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/ysangkok/pgpfone

How can I find out what is causing the error? I assume that the code of PGPFWinUtils.cpp is including a header that call a macro incorrectly, causing the error, but I can't figure out where that would be.

Is it possible with Visual C++ to get a macro-backtrace? I remember Clang or GCC has this feature.

Here is the full source: https://github.com/ysangkok/pgpfone/blob/master/src/win32/PGPFWinUtils.cpp

I am compiling on AppVeyor, and I do not have the sources of afxrendertarget.h locally. How can I download the Windows SDK for header inspection on Ubuntu?

atlmfc\include\afxrendertarget.h(142): warning C4003: not enough actual parameters for macro 'IsNull' [C:\projects\pgpfone\src\win32\PGPfone.vcxproj]

The first error provides a couple of clues:

• line # 142 in afxrendertarget.h is the inline definition of member function BOOL IsNull() const of CD2DSizeF ;

• C4003 refers to an illegal expansion of macro IsNull .

This indicates that some other non-MFC header file #define 'sa macro IsNull , and when that header is included before (the MFC header file which includes) afxrendertarget.h the IsNull macro breaks the IsNull member function declaration.
