I am in the process of migrating our VC++ project from Visual Studio 2005 (VC8) to Visual Studio 2008 (VC9). Some of the projects in the solution have paths to third party libraries in their 'Additional Library Directories' field in the project settings. The paths look something like this:
..\SomeLibrary\Lib\vc9\x86
It would be really u...
I have this progress bar that uses callback functions from a third party driver, to display a traditional progress bar in a window called CFProgress.
CFProgress *cFM=new CFProgress();
theApp.m_cFM = cFM;
cFM->Create(CFProgress::IDD);
cFM->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
thirdpartydriver->set_OnProgress(ProgressFuncC, (void *) cFM);

Consider this scenario:
An application links to 3rd party library A.
A is built using MSVC 2008 and is statically linking (ie. built with /MT) to the C Runtime Library v9.0.

I can see trouble with this - for instance ...

Is it possible to use GNU gettext with MS Visual C++? Does someone know where to find a sample project that compiles under Visual C++?
Update:
Thanks to Sorin Sbarnea for his comments which help me to put all the pieces together:
I'm used to the Delphi version of gettext where you simply compile the unit gnugettext.pas with your projec...
I'm trying to write a library which unzips a zip file contents to an existing directory, replacing the content of only the folders which exist in the zip file.
In order to do this I am employing the use of the Boost Unit Testing framework.
Before each test I wish make a copy of an existing directory, the copy of which will serve as the...

I want to create labels in MFC (Static text) that have both bold and non-bold text. Something like this:
"I would like my label to look like this, for example"
Any thoughts of how to do this?
I know that I can change the font of the entire label and have it either bold or not, but is there any way of merging more than one style, o...
Dear developers,
I have a questions about C++ templates. More specifally, by using template arguments for inheritance.
I am facing strange behaviour in a closed-source 3rd party library. There is a C method
factoryReg(const char*, ICallback*)
which allows to register a subclass of ICallback and overwrite the (simplified) methods:

I'm attempting to use the following to get the height & width of the main display:
#include <winuser.h>
size_t width = (size_t)GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXBORDER);

However, it's failing on an unresolved externals link error (LNK1120). I've tried linking to user32.lib (as documented here...
While compiling a large c++ program with msvc .net 2003 and with debug information, I ran into C1067, the fatal compiler error for to big or to large debug symbols. As it is in boost, and I don't want to fiddle around with the source code, the easiest thing would be, if there is a pragma or something that could switch off the generation ...
I am interested in allocating pointers, storing those in the LPARAM data of a comboboxex control, and making that control responsible for deleting those pointers when it is destroyed.
Since I am working in MFC, I can subclass a CComboBoxEx, and add either a message handler or a virtual member function.
The question is: Is this pattern ...
