I want to get list of connected camera.

My code is...

C++

    hMyWindow = capCreateCaptureWindow("", WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE|WM_CAP_DLG_VIDEODISPLAY, 10, 40, ImageX,ImageY,this->m_hWnd,1); 
capDriverConnect(hMyWindow,0);
capDriverGetCaps(hMyWindow,CAPDRIVERCAPS,sizeof(CAPDRIVERCAPS));

When I use capDriverGetCaps macro it gives an error
Error 12 error C2059: syntax error : ')'
how to remove this?

You must pass the address of a CAPDRIVERCAPS variable to capDriverGetCaps():

CAPDRIVERCAPS caps;
capDriverGetCaps(hMyWindow, &caps, sizeof(CAPDRIVERCAPS));
