• Fraze Changing the Console Text Color

  I've come across an issue that I'm sure I can solve if I could change the console text colors at runtime.  I've spent a couple of nights trying to find something online but all I've learned is that you can do it in C#.  I still havent found one source that tells me how to do it in C++.   Any help will be greatly appreciated.  I have .net 2003 ----------------------------------------------------  ...Show All

• keroed1 Heap Corruption with #include <atlstr.h>

  In VS2003, I could create a new WinForm project, add #include <atlstr.h> to stdafx.h (no other changes) and the app would build and run fine. If I do this in 2005, with the addition of using /clr instead of /clrpure, there is a _CrtIsValidHeapPointer failure when the app begins to run (no additional code added, just the include). I need to use some code that uses CAtlStrings. Is there a way to get this to work in VS2005 ...Show All

• matt_uk create C++ DLL to be used by C# ?

  I want to write a native C++ function that I can later access from C#. Please keep in mind I do not have much experience developing on windows, (mostly unix) and that my only windows compiler is VS2005. I tried creating a MFC DLL. I am able to access this from a C++ .net program, but not from a C# program using P/Invoke. It seems that a plain MFC DLL is not "good enough" for use with DllImport.
