關於WINSOCK.H與winsock2.h中的重定義解決辦法分析

windows.h與winsock2.h的包含順序 大凡在Windows平台下用C++做網路開發很多時候都會同時包含這兩個標頭檔，如若順序不當(windows.h先於winsock2.h)就會出現很多莫名其妙的錯誤。諸如：

初看到如此一堆的錯誤委實不爽，但是只要將二者的包含順序調換一下問題就會解決，原因參見下面那個連結。另外，上述問題不僅影響直接包含二者的檔案，還影響間接包含的情形。比如，a.h包含了windows.h，b.h包含了winsock2.h，如果在c.h當中要引用a.h和b.h，那麼正確的順序應當是b.h先於a.h。當然，實踐當中有時很難找到究竟是哪兩個檔案順序不對了，終極的解決辦法是，在當前工程（就是編譯不過的這個工程）所有include語句最前面加上#include <winsock2.h>和#include<windows.h>，世界清靜了。

Solution：

This problem arises because windows.h (at least, that version of it) includes not winsock2.h but winsock.h; sadly when Microsoft wrote winsock2.h they chose neither to change windows.h to include winsock2.h, which replaces winsock.h, nor to include windows.h from winsock2.h and then add the definitions for the new Winsock 2 API methods & structures (this might seem reasonable since Winsock 2 does, strictly speaking, replace Winsock 1, but since the API must be fully backwards-compatible the distinction is somewhat meaningless and there's no real benefit to making winsock2.h standalone).

The fix is thankfully simple: always "#include <winsock2.h>" before windows.h.

However, you must remember that if windows.h has been included by (for example) a higher-level header file that is subsequently including your header file, it's too late - so you must make sure that the higher-level header files respect this convention also.

It is however rarely necessary to modify the header files of libraries or other code modules you are using just because you include their header files, and their header files include windows.h - you can just include winsock2.h before you include the library's header files.

在包含jrtplib有時候我也遇到這個問題，解決方案與之相同。一句話，在#include<windows.h>之前 #include <winsock2.h> 問題就可以解決。

問題描述]
   在包含了<windows.h>以及<winsock2.h>的工程中,編譯有時會出現如
下錯誤:
     error C2011: 'fd_set' : 'struct' type redefinition
     error C2011: 'timeval' : 'struct' type redefinition
                     ....
     error C2375: 'accept' : redefinition; different linkage
[原因分析]
   主要原因是因為<windows.h>中包含了<winsock.h>標頭檔,由於其版
本的不同，導致出現上述的錯誤。<windows.h>中相關代碼如下:
               #ifndef WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
               #include <cderr.h>
               #include <dde.h>
               #include <ddeml.h>
               ........
                #ifndef _MAC
               #include <winperf.h>
               #include <winsock.h>
               #endif
                .......
               #include <commdlg.h>
               #endif
               #endif
[解決方案]
    由以上代碼可以看出如果在沒有定義WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN宏的大前
提下windows.h有可能包含winsock.h 標頭檔，因此我們得出一個很簡單
的解決方案就是在包含<windows.h>之前定義WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN宏,如
下所示:
#define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
#include <windows.h>
