• Michael Hotek VCRedist Problem

  According to Microsoft our setup should look like this for winXP and above, C:\Test\helloconsole.exe C:\Test\Microsoft.VC80.CRT\Microsoft.VC80.CRT.manifest C:\Test\Microsoft.VC80.CRT\msvcr80.dll C:\Test\Microsoft.VC80.CRT\msvcp80.dll C:\Test\Microsoft.VC80.CRT\msvcm80.dll If I do not need to install VCRedist.exe on the client system. My problem is that i have to place the dlls at some other location, so that my application folder will not have complex structure. Is there any way to create a manifest file and embed it into the application exe, that will allow me to place the dll's at some other location. -- Thanks & Regards, Sachin Thanks Ted, How can i place the dlls in Win ...Show All

• Grahame Edwards Converted from C: How to make it accessable from other .Net programs?

  Hi there, I am familar with .Net in generial but really new in C++ .Net. Now I am charged with a task of converting an existing C program into .Net so that it can be accessed by our other .net components. Due to the complexity of the C program, re-witting is not an option for us. That's why C++ comes up as the tool for the task. I created a new C++ .Net project (class library project) and then created a new class file in it. Then I pasted my C code into the class. I also loaded all the header files needed into the project. After a bit of struggle I finally got it compiled! I can also see the DLL file generated. Big achievement, right While, only if I can figure out how to use it. What I want to do now is that I need to make this c ...Show All

• Shmelly Function not returning for long time....

  In my VC++ application I am using some third party library. When I am calling a function from that library some time (not always) it is taking long time to return e.g. 3 to 5 hours and my application is blocking at that point. If I want to wait only for 15 minutes for that function to return otherwise proceed further. How can I archive this Thanks, Amol In that case I think you should contact them for API support. This is a win32 application. I am collecting some data from Veritas BackupExec (a backup product) using sdk provided by the product. sdk includes some header files and libraries. While using one of the function of that sdk i am facing above proble. -Amol Thanks a lot for your sug ...Show All

• Jagdish Kumar :: Syntax Question

  I was just reading about the OpenFileDialog .NET class and am confused about some notation. MSDN supplies the following line in some example code: if ( result == ::DialogResult::Yes ) Can anyone tell me why the "::" is prepended to the beginning of the DialogResult value I would've thought that simply "DialogResult::Yes" would do the trick, which it doesn't. I had expected the syntax to be similar to something like, MessageBoxButtons::OK. Why not -Zero :: is the scope resolution operator and and when used by itself is usually used to take a step back in scope. This is usually done to access a global definition that has been overridden by a local definition. Example: int coun ...Show All

• asarshad Using animated GIF image in Forms

  Hi, I'm trying to use an animated gif image in a form within C++/CLI but so far without success. I looked at picturebox control but the image stay still, no animation. I browsed the NET to find any clue to my problem and got a few articles stating the fact that I have to make somekind of class that would rather display one at a time each frame found in my GIF. Any clue or easier way, any example on how to do it Thanks in advance, Stephane Stephane Beauchemin wrote: using the "image" property to specify my gif file doesn't allow me to stretch image according to picturebox dimensions which is smaller than original gif size.

• iamjero COM Implementation standards

  I'm looking to stadardize the way my server application exposes functionallity via COM. We have both ATL and MFC implementations scattered throughout our application. What would you suggest is the best way to expose a COM interface MFC, ATL, or some other. I don't think there's any specific standard. If you want to keep it thin, you'd just use ATL. But if your application has a lot of MFC dependency, you'd probably have to keep the MFC stuff in. If you had a choice to pick one, and were willing to port the other code to fit in, I'd recommend that you use ATL - which was meant for COM scenarios, unlike MFC. My question stemmed from the VS 2005's implementation of Add Method wizard, which, supports ATL similarly to the way Class ...Show All
