We write a plug-in (DLLs) for an application. The latest release of the
application uses the vc7.0 compiler. Previous releases used the vc6.0
compiler. So I must upgrade our plug-in. Problem is our plug-in depends on
third-party DLLs compiled and linked with vc6.0; we don't have ...

Recently, and for reasons I don't know, the project I was working on started
to compile either very slowly, or it was locking up.
So, I repaired VS C++.NET 2005 Express via 're-installing' it without first
removing it. The repair worked, and the project now compiles in a timely

GM all,
I have a VS 6.0 project (a Chess program) I want to convert to 2005.
I have no idea where to start.

I moved some of my mixed mode code into a new mixed mode DLL. I've
read over the KB article a million times in the last year so I'm
familar with the settings. However I get this error in the new DLL.

I have created an MFC project that links MFC MFC as shared dll and uses
/MD[d] . This MFC application loads another dll B via Loadlibrary that

I'm using Vs2002 .net framvwork sp3
I need to rerun my exe
I use that:
PROCESS_INFORMATION pi;

here's the header:

#pragma once
using namespace System;

I dont think I have ever been as dissappointed, frustrated or bewildered in
all of my life.
The problem, well take this class definition:
#ifndef __DATA

Since new C compilers recognize SAL keywords (__in, __out, __in_opt, etc),
should we continue using macros IN, OUT, OPTIONAL?
Can OPTIONAL appear by itself, or only combined with IN or OUT?
Then, it should be replaced by some new macros, like IN_OPTIONAL,

Here is a case where something that shouldn't compile does. Note below that
Test_Method() only accepts a pointer to Test_Struct as an parameter, but it
