• Visual C++ Platform SDK

  Hi narechk! > Why is not PSDK included with Beta 2 (Express) Will it be available > in the same package when VS2005 ships It was quite convinient to have > PSDK being installed along with VC++ 7.1, since just about any program > nowadays beyond 'hello world' #includes "windows.h" et al. VC2005 Express is primarily designed to build managed apps; and therefor you do not need the PSDK. By the way: it is no problem to download, install and use the PSDK with VC2005 Express. --- Greetings Jochen Just found the answer to my last question in another thread. Please ignore.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Why so many big structures in managed directx?

  I was told to ask this question here to get an answer: struct Caps 304 bytes struct Material 68 bytes ... These big structures are used as properties and passed here and there. Isn't this a big performance penalty I checked the generated asm code, and it seems these's no optimization to remove the overhead. So anyone knows why There is no difference between a struct and a class except for the fact that a struct has public members and a class has private. The old C style structs were different and needed typedef. But with C++ and now C# the struct and class are the same creature. ...Show All

• Visual C++ Exception during module load?

  I've got a bit of a showstopper problem that sounds vaguely similar to some of the other posts on here.  I am porting a large MFC-based application from Visual Studio 2002.  I've built and run in 2003, 2005 Beta 2, and now 2005 RC1 (all using the IDE.)  I'm seeing a new problem with the RC1 build:  we're crashing during startup before our CWinApp constructor, before DllMain in any of our app DLLs, and maybe even before static initialization (breakpoints set in very early static init are not hit.) Here's the WinDbg output: CommandLine: C:\depot_two\dev\Slow_Debug\MyApp.exe Symbol search path is: <redacted> Executab ...Show All

• Visual Basic Object instance lookup & lifetime

  Hi there, currently still using VB6 but exploring the move to VB.NET. We have a multi tier application with a tier in which we have created object classes representing table records (Flight, Booking, Airstrip, Passenger etc.) Since these objects are referring to each other we need to be aware that we do not create more than one instance in memory for a certain FlightID. Hence we have a "cache" (dictionary) which holds a reference to every instanced Flight object etc.. This in order that the Passenger.Flight and Booking.Flight actually refer to the same flight instance. The question is this: - In VB6/COM you could (with difficulty) find ...Show All
