The problem seems to be that ...Show All

• Mike_A139353 How do WWF support access control / security

  I have read a book of WWF beta (sams). As far as i can remember security was not mentioned once Why is this. Is there other technologies that will handle this on behalf of the WF engine Is it supposed to be the application that handles all security issues or the SQL server I'm used to AD and LDAP and my view is that the workflow objects could be expressed as ldap objects supporting security by the objects themselves. In this way the workfl ...Show All

• dchillman .Net Framework 1.1 on Vista 5270

  I installed 5270 yesterday without problems.  Today I attempted to install an application that I use often. The application's setup requires the .Net Framework 1.1 - it checks for the existance of the 1.1 framework and if it's not there it attempts to install it (using the redistributable dotnetfx.exe). Unfortunately, build 5270 does not include the 1.1 framework (it includes the 1.0 and the 2.0).  So the 1.1 dotnetfx.exe is laun ...Show All

  I recently downloaded and installed the Windows Server SP1 Platform SDK. I notice that there are MFC include files and lib files in the installation.

So which libraries should I use when building a 32-bit MFC application Thanks in advanc ...Show All
