• Mike Ogilvie Change in C++ Project Property Sheet Editing 2005??

  When editing a property sheet for a project (e.g., adding compiler options), in previous versions of VC++ .Net, if the "All Configurations" selection was selected as the configuration to modify, the common settings between the different configurations were displayed.  You could modify these common settings or add new common settings (e.g., add compiler options to the command line). In VC++ 2005, when "All Configurations" is selected, the co ...Show All

• mrabah GDI+ Display JPG

  Hi all, I am new in Visual C++ and GDI+. I am currently using VC++ express to display a jpg file.

• StevenW Help on choosing the right product

  Hello, I'm facing the problem of choosing the right product for my developer's group, and I find myself somewhat confused. First of all I'd like to use a stable and tested product, not a beta one, so I excluded the upcoming 2005, because the Beta 2 version to which I gave a try presents a long list of bugs and annoyances at the moment, and there's too much uncertainty on its real final release date. So let's go ...Show All

  I have Visual C++ 2005 Beta 2 (Express edition) installed. In the help for VC++ I found a topic about the “C++ Support Library”.

  Hi -   Here's another dllimport question. I'm attempting to access native code from managed code.
