Incomplete type error when trying to create a BluetoothLEAdvertisementPublisher?-CodePudding

I have problem with Windows SDK.

There are .h header files. Classes declared in this files look like this:

namespace ABI {
 namespace Windows {
  namespace Devices {
   namespace Bluetooth {
    namespace Advertisement {
     class BluetoothLEAdvertisementPublisher;
    } /*Advertisement*/
   } /*Bluetooth*/
  } /*Devices*/
 } /*Windows*/
}

When i want to create class, compiler raises me error 'allocation of incomplete type'.

BluetoothLEAdvertisementPublisher* x = new BluetoothLEAdvertisementPublisher();

What is going on. How should i use this? I have windows 10, C 11 and mingw compiler.

CodePudding user response：

BluetoothLEAdvertisementPublisher comes with WinRT, not the Win32 API that MinGW provides.

So there is no way you will be able to compile that with MinGW/MinGW-w64 and you should try it with MSVC instead.
