No overload for method 'midiOutGetDevCaps' takes 2 arguments

[Jeff Main]

I have a working midiInGetDevCaps console app. I was converting it to a midiOutGetDevCaps console app, and for the life of me, I'm puzzled why I get the error when it's basically identical. The error is "No overload for method'midiOutGetDevCaps' takes 2 arguments" yet, I have 2 arguments.

Perhaps another set of eyes???
Here is the complete console app code (because it's so short).

using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
namespace MidiOutDevCaps
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            int devCount = midiOutGetNumDevs();
            Console.WriteLine(" MIDI Output devices connected: " + devCount.ToString());
            MIDIOUTCAPS outputCaps;
            for (uint oDevID = 0; oDevID < devCount; oDevID++)
            {
                midiOutGetDevCaps((UIntPtr)oDevID, out outputCaps);


                Console.WriteLine(outputCaps.szPname);
                Console.ReadKey();
            }
        }

        }
    }
}

The error is with this line...

midiOutGetDevCaps((UIntPtr)oDevID, out outputCaps);

Thanks for your assistance.

How many parameters have you defined in the PInvoke prototype?

        [DllImport("winmm.dll", SetLastError = true)]
        private static extern MMRESULT midiOutGetDevCaps(UIntPtr uDeviceID, out MIDIOUTCAPS caps,
            UInt32 cbMidiOutCaps);

Answer: 3, not 2
