Hi, you probably know this -- you're going to create some nice class, you think about it a little, maybe even draw a little UML here and there and then you're ready for implementation. You create header files with member functions, maybe even some member properties. And now comes the dull work -- rewriting everything into .cpp file. It...

So, if you could help me with 2 things: I create a new project (not a solution). He puts the files in some directory. After putting my code inside it, I...
I created an application in VS 2008 Express as an MFC app just to take advantage of the easy GUI creation. I might re-do this app in pure win32 since no other MFC classes are used (just a button and a text box, the button fires off the main program, all win32). My only question that determines whether I stay in MFC or port it over to pur...

Recently, the behavior changed suddenly, and a few things happen: I start debugging, it lauches IE and loads the application, but after a few seconds (sometimes the page hasn't even display...

In my team we have hundreds of shared dlls, which many also reference other dlls that themselves reference other dlls, and so on. We have started to use a 'Shared' directory for all the dlls that we feel are generic enough to use in other projects, such as a database comms dll. The problem is that if one of the dlls all the way down ...
