Or we could say "sizeof()" was giving me the size of the pointer, which is 4 bytes indeed, instead of the size of the array, that I had stored in imageSize. In other words, I solved the problem by using imageSize instead of sizeof(data).

Also, about your two points...

1) That's what I have been doing from the very beggining. Reading the API documentation for OpenGL. However, it has nothing to do here, since this was a C++ problem. Not an Open GL one. And no, other than the standard Windows API and Open GL, I am not using anything else.

2) Making mistakes implies learning. One is not blind-folded for doing something he doesn't know. One is blind-folded if he doesn't even try, since he will never know how to do it. Sure I did learn that sizeof() only gives you the size of the type you're using. Not the size of an array.

The problem is that you can't capture directly as video. Every video capture software, including professional video recording, capture still images and store them in a temporary folder, then merge them into a temporary file and, finally, merge all images and encode them into the final video file. Have in mind that a video is just that, a bunch of still images and audio merged into a single file.

I still keep getting errors:

"error: an anonymous struct cannot have function members"
And also
"error: abstract declarator '' used as declaration"

Both errors point to the lines 7 and 18 of my ServerClass.h header. Which means that, for some bizarre reason, it doesn't get the name of my class, but why?

Yeah, I had to mess so much with the code, that I ended doing stupid things without even noticing.

I modified the header

<pre lang="c++">#define DEFAULT_BUFLEN 512
#ifndef SERVERCLASS_H
#define SERVERCLASS_H
#endif

class ServerClass
{
public:
static int CreateServer(HWND);
static int CloseServer();
static char* getcbuffer();
static int listensock();
private:
static SOCKET ListenSocket;
static SOCKET ClientSocket;
static char recvbufx[DEFAULT_BUFLEN];
static int recvbuflen;
};</pre>

But I still get an error.

"error: an anonymous struct cannot have function members"

And also

"error: abstract declarator '' used as declaration"

Both errors point to the lines 7 and 18 of my ServerClass.h header.

I only want to have access to those functions from another classes.
