error C2143: syntax error : missing ')' before '*' and others in Visual C++ 6.0

[Alexander Lefter <alefter yahoo com>]

I try to build a project using GTK+-2.2.0 in Visual C++ on Windows2000 and I get following errors:

editor.c

 

where

line 35: typedef void (* GtkClipboardReceivedFunc) (GtkClipboard  *clipboard, GtkSelectionData *selection_data, gpointer data);
line 35: typedef void (*GtkClipboardTextReceivedFunc)  (GtkClipboard   *clipboard, const gchar      *text, gpointer data);

 

I installed the latest service pack (5) for Visual C++.

 

Please advice
