I have a guess that you are trying to port a program from either MS C++
or Borland C++.

First, I should tell you that, AFAIK, there is no C/C++ graphics cross
platform or development environment standard.

The good news is that if it is Borland, there is an
interface(?)/wrapper(?) that can be used to use Borland gfx fxns w/ GRX.
Mind you, GRX 2.3, the newest version is more or less in beta, and is
not maintained very constantly. Second, IMHO, it sucks. Allegro is much
more flexible. When I started w/ DJGPP, I saw two choices, GRX or
allegro. Being used to the Borland syntax, I was intending to use
BCC2GRX (the wrapper/interface I was referring to up above). However, i
had never liked the gfx init routine, and it looked even worse w/ GRX.
So, I decided to use Allegro.

W/ MS C++, I can't help you as much, except to say that you either need
to learn GRX or Allegro, xref to above paragraph.
