It is awesome that you posted this. Thank you. In this spirit I will post something I was struggling with.

I had an issue using ENet with Allegro with Visual C++ 9. The headers need to be:

   #define _WINSOCKAPI_
   #define ALLEGRO_STATICLINK
   #define ALLEGRO_NO_ASM

   #include <allegro.h>
   #include <winalleg.h>
   #include <enet/enet.h>

and the libs needs to be

   alleg_s_crt.lib kernel32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib comdlg32.lib
   ole32.lib dinput.lib ddraw.lib dxguid.lib winmm.lib dsound.lib
   enet.lib ws2_32.lib

Any other order in the headers threw a mess of unresolved external symbols which took me a decent amount of time to figure out. As you can probably tell I am statically linking Allegro. This should also work with Allegro being dynamically linked (obviously with /#define ALLEGRO_STATICLINK/ removed).

Steps to reproduce :
         Drop code into existing solution.
         Make sure you are linking to WS2_32.lib and Winmm.lib
         Make sure that you have defined WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
Build.

Problem : Linker errors ( timeBeginPeriod etc from winmm.lib, called from enet_initialize).

Fix: Due to WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN , mmsystem.h is no longer included in the chain that enet relied on before.

At the top of win32.h, Line 18 (added underneath the other includes).

#ifdef WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
#include <mmsystem.h>
#endif /* WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN */


Hopefully this will save someone some time.
