    - What factors go into link and start-up time? Hello, This is more of a theory question, than a complaint. Recently my project has been growing more and more complex due to an infusion of new technolgies, and along the line two considerable growing pains have been ballooning: link and application start-up times. I suppose this is inevitable, but it bothers me that I don't know exactly why these phenomena are occuring. If anyone can provide some insight as to concretely what factors most directly lead to this kind of performance, in terms of the linker and module loader, I would be very grateful. Essentially, the things that have been changing are: * a dramatic increase in project dependencies (from 4-6 to the order of 20-30) * usage of RTTI * usage of multiple inheritance, and a deep class hierarchy * movement from unmanaged C++ to a mixture of languages including unmanaged C++, C++/CLI, C#, and lua Generation of the manifest itself frequently takes several minutes, and on load there is at least a minute wait while "'App.exe': Loaded 'C:\WINDOWS\XXXXXXXX', No symbols loaded." messages slowly trickle in through the Output window, XXXXXXXX being one file from a very long series of DLLs in either system32 or WinSxS. While the development wait time is an incredible pain that can be tolerated, ultimately something will have to be done about the start-up time of the application. Is this a DLL versus static link tradeoff Thank you for any information you can provide, Tag: Visual C++ General VS 2005 C++ Text Control Settings Visual C++

    - SP1 redistibutables can't run as private assemblies Hi there, We have an application that uses VC++ 2005. For the runtime libraries we distribute them as private assemblies (which is to say we include the manifest and the msvc*.dll files in our application directory). This worked fine with the RTM. When we installed SP1, we updated the manifest and dll files to the SP1 versions but we have found that the application will not load on any machine that doesn't already have SP1 installed. It seems that the runtime redistributables will no longer work as private assemblies. Has anyone had any experience getting this going (or know of a reason why it no longer works) Thanks, Brendan Tag: Visual C++ General VS 2005 C++ Text Control Settings Visual C++

    - Process dynamically loads dll, gives it a file handle but results in a crash when file handle is accessed in dll scratchdog wrote: If someone can provide me with a proper explanation, that will be superb. Microsoft says don't do it so that is all the explanation we need. We don't need for Microsoft to explain why. Incompatible runtime libraries is a very common problem; it seems that someone has the problem (asks a question in which it is the cause) everyday.

    - How to sign a manifest for an unmanaged C++ program? Hello all, I have an application written in unmanaged C++, using MFC and unmanaged DirectX (8.1). I would like to deploy this application using ClickOnce technology. I am using Microsoft MageUI tool to create an application manifest and a deployment manifest. I have a manifest for my program, but each time I am trying to fetch it to MageUI I am getting an error "The application manifest is not signed". So my question is: how can I sign a manifest for an unmanaged C++ application Is it possible at all to use the ClickOnce technology for deploying unmanaged C++ applications Thanks in advance, AC Tag: Visual C++ General VS 2005 C++ Text Control Settings Visual C++

    - c++ cgi I have been playing with some C++ CGI lately and was wondering a couple things. 1.) What is the best way to maintain a CGI project Meaning, so far for every new application (every webform/page) I have to setup a new VS project. Surely there must be a better way. Can I setup VS to compile each .cpp into a seperate .exe 2.) Is Url Rewriting the only way to get the CGI application to execute without including the .exe on the end of the filename or is there some other way in IIS Thanks for the help Tag: Visual C++ General VS 2005 C++ Text Control Settings Visual C++

    - create .exe file? Thanks a lot. crescens2k and Bruno van Dooren. Yes, there are two debug folders (very confusing). I was looking at the one at project level - that's where the manifest file is. I now found the .exe in the folder at the solution level. Many thanks, I appreciate your help.

    - New to VC++ Programming thanks Einar! i have already purchased a book & trying to learn VC++ 2005 myself. I am having one tool in my mind which i want to create, it is just like building VC++ (6.0/.Net/2005) project, make a package of the solution, install it on the testing machines, run the testing script, & send the test result report to the desired ppl. now plz tell me which language is best for this, i have opted VC++ 2005 for it. is my decision right or all these things can be done by any other language Regards, Adarsh...

    - C3861: '_beginthread()': identifier not found when using /MD (Multithreaded DLL) If you open <process.h>, you'll see that _beginthread's declaration depends on the definition of the preprocessor token _MT. When you throw /MD(d), the compiler driver sends to the compiler front end the definitions _MT and _DLL in response. You can check for this by setting the diagnostic compiler flag -Bd. Set this flag under Project Properties->C/C++->Command Line, and read the output. Here's an example from my build: 1>`E:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\c1xx.dll -zm0x7C4F0000 -il E:\Users\bkramer\AppData\Local\Temp\_CL_55194bf5 -f .\test2.cpp -Ze -D_MSC_EXTENSIONS -Zp8 -ZB64 -D_INTEGRAL_MAX_BITS=64 -Gs -pc \:/ -D_MSC_VER=1400 -D_MSC_FULL_VER=140050727 -D_WIN32 -D_M_IX86=600 -D_M_IX86_FP=0 -GS -GR -D_CPPRTTI -Zc:forScope -Zc:wchar_t -Ot -DWIN32 -D_DEBUG -D_CONSOLE -D_UNICODE -DUNICODE -Gm -EHs -D_CPPUNWIND -EHc -D__MSVC_RUNTIME_CHECKS -RTCs -RTCu -D_DEBUG -D_MT -D_DLL -FoDebug\test2.obj -FdDebug\vc80.pdb -W 3 -D_Wp64 -Wp64 -ZI -FC -GF -Zi -FD -Bd -nologo -errorreport:prompt -I E:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\include -I E:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\atlmfc\include -I E:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\PlatformSDK\include -I E:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\PlatformSDK\common\include -I E:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SDK\v2.0\include' Tag: Visual C++ General VS 2005 C++ Text Control Settings Visual C++

    - Small Linker Problem Hi and thanks to both of you. @Simerjeet: How do I verify whether the WinCE SDK does support COM/DCOM @TilakGopi: The current source code is as follows: #define _WIN32_DCOM #include <msxml.h> #include <Objbase.h> int WINAPI WinMain( HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPTSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow) { HRESULT hr; IXMLDOMDocument * pXMLDoc; IXMLDOMNode * pXDN; hr = ::CoInitializeEx(NULL, NULL); return 1; } There's really not much to it. I just started a project for WinCE, where I could parse an XML file. But the project refuses to link in the very early stages :-( Chris Tag: Visual C++ General VS 2005 C++ Text Control Settings Visual C++

    - delete[] char* question einaros wrote: The debug version of delete has code to check the surrounding padding to see if there has been a heap overflow. einaros brings up a useful point--if you were running a release build you might never see this sort of coding error fail or you might see it fail 10 minutes later in code that appears entirely unrelated. The extra debug check attempts to make the error apparent closer to where it occurs in the code. For example, if you had written 100 bytes off the end of your buffer into some other data structure, you'd rather have it pointed out by delete[] than find a mysterious problem in code that uses the other data structure.

    - Creating Account on windows Mail Hi, What is the way to create the windows mail account using pop3 and smtp server name. I knew that I think IImnAccountManager could do this,but this interface has been deprecated now for vista and also login of creating account been changed in vista. Vista is creating one .oeaccount file for each account into "%UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Mail". folder. but here I am facing issue of setting binary password and setting as a default account. Please help me if anybody knows anything about this,that would be great for me to know something more about windows mail. Thanks, Prakash.

    - Win32 API C++ Help!!! Hi, i have pretty much finished a program, but it has a few errors which over the past couple of hours i have not been able to reduce ever so much. I was hoping that someone could have a quick look and try and error check it for me. I have posted asking how to add in a new line to the output box, but i need to know why sometimes it will randomly close. Also, try typing a word such as television in. It works the first time, when you look it up, but when you change the text at all, it changes to something like a row of braces { and i cannot work out why Also, it no longer finds the word after it has for the first time. I think the problem lies in the way i have set a string as global. Is there a work around to this Because whenever i tried to retireve the text from the box in the lookup function, it always truncated the last letter off and i do not know why If perhaps someone were to not write the global variable and instead keep in enclosed, so that the string is looked up again when the button is clicked it would work a lot better. But you would have to work out why it keeps taking the last letter off that way. Thanks an awful lot. It may seem a lot of code, but the only bits that really need to be looked at are the button clicked and the text in the input box changed, which is not a lot.

    - New to C++ Hi, I am new to C++ and wanted to pick up the skills for my project. Questions are [1] Which compiler to use Visual C++ 6.0 or Visual C++ 2005 or .NET Are all these works the same Bottomline is it must be compatible with Vista Home Premium; and, [2] Any good books for reference I was referred to Ivor Horton's Beginning ANSI C++: The Complete Language, Third Edition , Ivor Horton's Beginning Visual C++ 2005 and C++ How to Program by Dietel and Dietel. What I need is in-depth understanding of the basic code. Wondering which one suite me best as 2nd book looks like intro on 'using' the software (am I right to said so ). 1st and 3rd seems to suite my need for in-depth understanding. Please advice.

    - CProgressCtrl Windows XP Problems hello I work on Windows on Windows 2000 normally and i'm developing an application for windows (any version) I used CProgressCtrl as Part of my App but it's behaviour under XPis really weird (compiled and Tested under XP OS) The Control ignore the Smooth Flag and The Background Color is ignored too. (kind of annoying) I did not find any other component to use instea, Is there Any I tried to create a new project to see if the cause of my problem was that the project was created under W2000. so i used a blang dialog based project, put progress bar in the middle and tried to attach a variable to it. It can't even open the property window for it and does not recognise the class of the control... SCARY. error: "Object does not support this property or method" file: "C:/Program%20Files/R&D/Software%20Development/Visual%20Studio/VC/VCWizards/CodeWiz/MFC/Variable/HTML/1033" Please Help as It seems really weird. thanks for your Time.

    - Peculiar 4 byte literals It isn't a bug. As I said it is implimentation defined behaviour. This basically means that the standard doesn't say how it works so it is down to the writers on how it is done. They obviously had a reason for doing it this way but it is behaviour you shouldn't depend on. Tag: Visual C++ General VS 2005 C++ Text Control Settings Visual C++

I have a dialog with a text control.

It is basically working, but I want to make to changes to it, and I don't see these options as part of the standard properties:

- Support for Text Wrap.

I have a Horizontal Scrollbar, but I'd prefer not to have that and just wrap text.

When I turn the scrollbar off, it doesn't wrap.

- Support for Ctrl-A Select All

Select All is available from the popup right-click menu, but I would like to have it as an accelerator key.

Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V are already working. How can I get Ctrl-A

Re: Visual C++ General VS 2005 C++ Text Control Settings

Hi,

As i prefer better use owner drawn text control. and to activate Ctrl+A as acclerator, add accelerator resource in resource file. It may work

Re: Visual C++ General VS 2005 C++ Text Control Settings

Simple Samples

All of that can be done using the dialog editor of the resouces editor.

Re: Visual C++ General VS 2005 C++ Text Control Settings

slender_bamboo

I am using the dialog editor and don't see either as properties that can be set.

I think by subclassing the CEdit control that I can capture the keydown events and then get select all to work for the Ctrl-A key. Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V already seem to be baked into the CEdit control. I don't understand why Ctrl-A was left out.
I have some code for this and will be trying that.

As for text wrap, I am not able to find a property for CEdit to handle it, which is disappointing.

Re: Visual C++ General VS 2005 C++ Text Control Settings

Simple Samples

Sorry, I forgot that word wrap is not a property directly. Look at the SuperPad sample program; it has an option for toggling word wrap on and off. That will show what you need for word wrap. Or look at the documentation; I assume the documentation will specify how to get word wrap.

Accelerator keys are definitely supported in the resources. You are doing things the hard way. The accelerator table in the resources makes it very easy to specify accelerator keys. I am not sure but you might need to also use an override of CDialog to process the accelerator keys for your dialog. See my Processing Keyboard Messages CodeGuru article for a description of how to do that, except I don't know if that is still necessary. MFC might have been enhanced since then so that perhaps some or all of that might not be needed.
