Dear Graeme!

First of all I would like to express my gratitude for writing the
Argyll and maintaining excellent level of support! THANK YOU!!!

As for the compilation errors. I am using the newest DDK available
from Microsoft at

http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/ddk/default.mspx

I clicked on "Download the Windows Server 2003 SP1 DDK [236 MB ISO
file]"

Then I compiled your version of AJAM (with one change - I had to remove
all blank lines from jam.h - I do not know if those were added "in
transit" or there was an error on my side - maybe just take a look and
see if everything is OK with your version [just see if there are any
redundant blank lines in preprocessor commands] :). All in all, I do
not think this is the problem.

------- 1st compilation with errors
set DDK_INC_PATH=E:\WINDDK\3790.1830\inc\w2k
set DDK_LIB_PATH=E:\WINDDK\3790.1830\lib\w2k\i386
set MINGW=C:\MinGW
jam -a >CompilationLog.txt 2>&1

------ 2nd comilation without errors
set DDK_INC_PATH=E:\WINDDK\3790.1830\inc\w2k
set DDK_LIB_PATH=E:\WINDDK\3790.1830\lib\w2k\i386
set MINGW=C:\MinGW

jam -a >CompilationLog2.txt 2>&1

----

The problem is with usb.h, usb100.h and usb200.h, for
example:

In file included from spectro\icoms.h:35,
                 from spectro\inst.c:43:
E:/WINDDK/3790.1830/inc/wxp/usb.h:44: error: syntax error before "PIRP"
E:/WINDDK/3790.1830/inc/wxp/usb.h:44: warning: data definition has no type or 
storage class
E:/WINDDK/3790.1830/inc/wxp/usb.h:45: error: syntax error before "PMDL"
E:/WINDDK/3790.1830/inc/wxp/usb.h:45: warning: data definition has no type or 
storage class

Is anyone interested in full compilation log? Graeme - do you want
them via PM?

It just crashes - "There was a problem with application dispcal..."

Error signature: AppName: dispcal.exe, AppVer:0.0.0.0 ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 00198fe4

I have managed to pinpoint the problem to

HidD_GetHidGuid(&HidGuid);

in file hidio.c, function hid_get_paths()

As this is Microsoft's function, I think the problem is with my
compilation - the necessity of using Win2k libs on WinXP.

----
Minor thing - could you take a look at the very end of hidio.h? The following 
stuff is
outside #if #endif protection against double inclusion. Is this
intentional?

/* Cleanup and then free an hev entry */
void hid_del_hid_device(hid_device *hev);
