Its a COM dll that i generated and tested using debug configuration
....but now its about to be dilevered and as i try to convert it into

I thought that including template headers such as <vector> in the pch is not
useful.
Templates can’t be compiled without the template arguments so there is no
way to pre compile them.

I just downloaded Visual C++ 2005 Express, and I'm reading through a
book called "Visual C++ .NET Step By Step", which was made for 2003.
Just so you know where I'm getting this example.
When I build this code, I get the following compile error.

I use Firefox as my browser. As a result, I'm banned from getting Windows
Updates. This seems a bit monopolistic on MS's part, and it means if there
is a security problem or a VS C++.NET 2005 patch needed, I'm out of luck.
This seems wrong to me...

Hi, I've got a simple vc++ program that basically just runs a daemon in
the background and sends update messages to a logfile as it goes along.
What I'd like to do is see these log messages also displayed in a
window - either a dos window or a 'proper' window with a text field

I call windows api LoadLibrary(), it returns error code : ERROR_NOACCESS

Im rewriting a current MFC application for .NET using C++\CLI that
compiles \clr SAFE.
My application needs to read application settings, it used to do this
from the old application ini file via GetProfileString etc.

I'm trying to migrate a small library to VC8 via the wizard, but when I try
to compile I get the following errors:
Error    1    error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "?.cctor@@$$FYMXXZ"
(?.cctor@@$$FYMXXZ)    AssemblyInfo.obj   

I have a very strange problem trying to link the debug version of my caller
application with one of my DLL's using .NET 2K5.  The linker declares the
following error (one of many):
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol

When we use Visual Studio in beginning C++ classes, we routinely follow the
scenario below.
Create a Win 32 Console Project (empty).
Add a C++ source code file to the project.

I have an ATL DLL that hosts a COM object. Without managed extensions the
object compiles and works fine. Now with some assistance from Will DePalo
(on a different thread in this group) I figured out how to add CLR support
to my object and how to call into managed code. The code ...

Can I define a template class as following
#pragma unmanaged
#include "mybaseclass.h"
#pragma managed

In VS/VC 2003:
Simple question: for the Custom Build Step for the project (right click the
project in the Solution Explorer, select "Properties", select the "Custom

I've got a problem to set my application in the status area so that I can
receive application message while the window is minimized.
Just put my icon beside my input method in the right corner of windows.
Is it possible to do it with win32 api?
