I have an MFC application developed in VS Studio 2008 which reads and writes to a JSON file in its installation folder. It works perfectly in vista(administrator) BUT ONLY when UAC is turned off. When UAC is ON, the application isn't able to write to its JSON file. I figured I had to create a manifest file but I haven't really tried crea...
We layout dialogs using the resource editor. So say I have a RichEditCtrl called IDC_RICH. And I want to link it to an instance of a custom class CMyRichEditCtrl : CRichEditCtrl, without losing the ability to set properties on it in resource editor. What's the right way? You can certainly get some functionality by creating a DDX-linked ...

There doesn't appear to be any documentation about that. I guessed that since checking and unchecking works by ch...
The add-to-clip-board code we have in our code base is quite low-level - allocating global memory and so on.

An example is that CRichEditCtrl has Copy() & Cut() methods which automatically put the current select...

I've never been a big fan of MFC, but that's not really the point. I read that Microsoft is due to release a new version of MFC in 2010 and it really struck me as odd - I thought MFC was dead (no ill intention, I really did). Is is MFC used for new developments? If so, whats the benefit? I couldn't imagine it having any benefit over som...
