When a whole project (solution) consists of multiple subprojects (.vcproj), what is a preferable way to tie them: as static libraries or as shared libraries? Assuming that those subprojects are not used elsewhere, the shared libraries approach shouldn't decrease memory usage or load time. ...
Hi Is there a way to get documentation(like javadoc) in a visual-c++ project? I'm using visual studio 2010. thanks! ...
Hi Guys, I am trying to use sinf function in my C Program and it does give me undefined reference under MSVC 6.0 but sin works fine. This make me curious to find the difference between sin and sinf. What is the logical difference between sin and sinf(). How can I implement my own sinf functionality? ...
If I wanted to add, let's say, a new .lib to the build only if a particular #define was set, how would I do that? In the MSVC++ 2008 "Property Pages", you would simply add: Config Properties -> Linker -> Input -> Additional Dependencies, but I would like it if something like #define COMPILE_WITH_DETOURS was set, then the particular libr...
Using the following pseudo-code: #define BUILD_PATH "C:/MyBuild/" #define BUILD_NAME "mydll.dll" // Set build path here representing how I would like to build the current project (a dll) into C:/MyBuild/mydll.dll, how would I accomplish this by only using preprocessor directives? Thanks a bunch! ...
This is undoubtedly a simple question. I used to do this before, but it's been around 10 years since I worked in C++ so I can't remember properly and I can't get a simple constructor call working. The idea is that instead of parsing the args in main, main would create an object specifically designed to parse the arguments and return th...
Hi, I have a program that has a SIZE of 800x600. I want to make this program expand if it is maximized, so that all the elements(buttons, picturebox's) change size to fit the new ratio depending on the users windows screen resolution. The way I am thinking to approach this is to take the users screen resolution and manual change the s...
Can anyone please tell how to save an xml file from the web to the disc automatically when i give the url using vc++ ...
I know how to get the parameters from the command line. I also know how to print them out. The problem I'm having is how to compare the parameters from the argv[] array to a string. The progam runs but never returns a result where the parameter string is equal to the one I'm looking for. Thanks in advance. // Testing.cpp : Defines t...
Does anyone know the location of a good list or tutorial showing all the compiler macros (_T etc) in use in Visual Studio 2008? Thanks in advance ...
I have a class that contains a function that calls create thread, and needs to pass itself (this) as a parameter: DWORD threadId; HANDLE h = CreateThread( NULL, 0, runThread, this, 0, &threadId); My runThread definition is as follows: DWORD WINAPI runThread(LPVOID args) { Obj *t = (Obj*)args; t->funct(); return 0; } Unf...
I'm slowly starting to get the hang of the _T stuff in Visual Studio 2008 c++, but a few things still elude me. I can see the benefit of the flexibility, but if I can't get the basics soon, I think I'll go back to the standard way of doing this - much less confusing. The idea with the code below is that it scans the parameters for -d a...
When I type #include <QObject> it complains that it couldn't find file. but if I type #include <QtCore\QObject> It works properly. I moved VS2005 to VS2008, this was not the case in VS2005, and it started with VS2008. Why am I getting this error? ...
Trying to debug some linker errors, I turned on /VERBOSE and I'm trying to make sense of the output. It occurs to me that I really don't know how to read it. For example: 1>Compiling version info 1>Linking... 1>Starting pass 1 1>Processed /DEFAULTLIB:mfc80.lib 1>Processed /DEFAULTLIB:mfcs80.lib 1>Processed /DEFAULTLIB:msvcrt.lib 1>Proc...
I've encountered a problem with the new Visual C++ in VS 2010. I've got a header with the following defines: #define STC(y) #y #define STR(y) STC(\y) #define NNN(y) 0##y #define NUM(y) NNN(y) The intent is that you can have some constant around like #define TOKEN x5A and then you can have the token as a number or as a string: NUM...
First question here! So, I am having some problems with pointers in Visual C++ 2008. I'm writing a program which will control six cameras and do some processing on them so to clean things up I have created a Camera Manager class. This class handles all operations which will be carried out on all the cameras. Below this is a Camera clas...
I have a program written in C++, that opens a binary file(test.bin), reads it object by object, and puts each object into a new file (it opens the new file, writes into it(append), and closes it). I use fopen/fclose, fread and fwrite. test.bin contains 20,000 objects. This program runs under linux with g++ in 1 sec but in VS2008 in debu...
I just started playing with cpp for the first time (using VS6 C++), I created an empty win32 application, added a IDD_FORMVIEW dialog, and now I don't know how to set that dialog as the main "form" for the application. I mean I want the dialog to be the first and main window opened when executing the compiled exe. ...
I found this example http://www.mvps.org/user32/webhost.cab that host an Internet Explorer WebBrowser object, and it uses this code to access the object void webhostwnd::CreateEmbeddedWebControl(void) { OleCreate(CLSID_WebBrowser,IID_IOleObject,OLERENDER_DRAW,0,&site,&storage,(void**)&mpWebObject); mpWebObject->SetHostNames(L"Web ...
As I'm making my application, I've been able to just run my project and it runs with the changes all made.
