• SteveG_AU XP style for IE Toolbar

  Hello friends, I m creating a toolbar for internet explorer. My application is VC++ ATL DLL which attach a toolbar to IE. I m using VS-2005. Now i implemented XP style for the toolbar using manifest file. Its working fine, means my buutons on toolbar are looking in XP style, but now button size has been increased. Before XP style size was (22 , 81), but after XP style it becomes (30 , 87). Due to this reason my buttons are not fitting on the toolbar. Buttons bottom edge is hidden due to increased height. if someone know what is the prob then plz reply.... Thanks in advance. ###Harry### Hello Re: XP style for IE Toolbar The more appropriate place for your question is probably the ATL newsgroup: http://msdn.mi ...Show All

• Ayukawa Mixing different versions of MFC

  Greetings, I'm working on a project that involves a VS 2005 MFC application which is setup to use MFC in a Shared DLL. It has come to my attention that there are VS 2003 DLLs and VS 6 DLLs being used, which are also setup to use MFC in a Shared DLL. Obviously this is bringing in multiple versions of the MFC. Between the spectacular crashes and researching this topic, I've found out that this isn't going to work. Why the post I'd like to know the MFC team's stance on this subject and options to correct Also, is their any documentation that I haven't found regarding Microsoft's stance on mixing different MFC versions subject Options already suggested are: -Upgrade all DLLs to use VS 2005 and thus they all use the same MFC versi ...Show All

• Evan Mulawski Double quotes in in strings....

  There is a string: dotnetfx.exe /q /c:"install.exe /q" How does one hand double quotes in something like this if ( ! IsInstalledFramework()){ShellExecuteAndWait(_T( "dotnetfx.exe\0" ),_T( "/q:a /c:\\" install /l /q "\0" ), true );} Thanks... You have two \\ , which creates a \. \" creates quotes. if ( ! IsInstalledFramework()){ShellExecuteAndWait(_T( "dotnetfx.exe\0" ),_T( "/q:a /c:\" install /l /q\ "\0" ), true );} You shouldn't need the \0, your constant strings should be null terminated by the compiler, at least I would have expected that to be the case.

• BCossa Problem with deployment (VC++ 2005)

  I have run into a strange problem with deploying applications developed using the VC++ 2005 Express Edition. After building "release" versions on my development machine, I usually copy the release binary over to a laptop and run it there (the laptop has .NET 2.0 and VC++ 2005 Redistributable packages installed, but not the development environment). Both computers are running Windows XP Professional. Now, all of a sudden, I am finding that new applications that I am developing are NOT running on the laptop after I copy the release binaries over. The error message complains about incorrect configuration... And yet, I am still able to copy my earlier applications over to the laptop and run them without any problem. As far as I ...Show All

• QuantumMischief Dependency debugging

  Is there anyway to turn on any kind of dependency output so I can debug a problem that I'm having If you've ever used make i'd like to see output similar to 'make -p'. My solution file has 15 projects in it and any time I try to debug the main program it thinks that all the projects are out of date and need to be rebuilt even i just rebuilt 2 seconds ago.

• Michael Vanhoutte VS2005 C++ compiler bug?

  I do not know if this is the best forum to report a MS VC++ compiler bug (please advise if I should post this to another forum). In the process of migrating code from VC6 to VC8 (i.e. Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition) I have stumbled across what I believe is a C++ compiler bug in the handling of template functions invoking the function call operator. Details and other ramblings below (after the example code that exposes the problem). #include <algorithm> #include <list> #include <stdio.h> #include <tchar.h> class A { public : // explicit initialising constructor (made explicit to avoid implicit conversions or casts) explicit A ...Show All

• JoelSSIS Usage of MC++ class in other .NET languages

  Is it possible to create a MC++ class that uses managed and unmanged code and deploy that class so that it is useable from other managed languages like C# or VB.NET If so how would I go about accomplishing this Yes, this is exactly the place of C++/CLI language in .NET. Create C++/CLI Class Library and write class which exposes pure .NET interface. Internally this class can use unmanaged code, for example, call some unmanaged API. To use this class in C# or VB client, add library reference to the client project and use this class. ...Show All

• RameezM Suppress Startup Banner

  In VC++ compiler properties there is an option C\C++-> General -> Suppress Startup Banner. I tried both yes and no before compiling. But nothing changed. In msdn: "Suppresses the display of the sign-on banner when the compiler starts up and display of informational messages during compiling." I dont understand what this option is about. Can you please explain it. Thank you You'll probably see better if you compile from the command-line.
