• Visual C++ [ATL] does ATL has any collection tool lik CMap in MFC?

  like the title... I thought those containers were merged in VC2005 Anyhow, CMap and the MFC containers are rubbish. The container you want to use is std::map, which, unlike CMap, is part of the C++ language. http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/Map.html ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office The deployment doesn't work always...

  As I finally succeeded to install the RC VSTO version on my machine, I decided to deploy and to make it available to all my users...

• Visual Studio problem with IvsProjectFactory::CreateProject

  We have code integrated with Visaul Studio 2003 and it works fine. We want to upgradate the integration with 2005. What we did is to change the self-registration to be done with 2005, and rebuild our source code in 2003, without migrating our source to 2005. After this, we can see our menu in VS 2005 exp, but we cannot create our own type of project. Debugging found the problem while trying to call IvsProjectFactory::CreateProject(). Returned error code is 0x80131500. We cannot find more information about what's wrong. Our call to CreateProject() is similar to the example project FigPrj.

• Visual C# Encryption!

  Hi, I'm facing a small problem and it would be great if someone could provide me with a solution. I have a windows application that writes some data to a file. Now I want this data to be stored in the file as encrypted. The problem is that I don't want to hardcode the encryption key in my windows application. I've heard there is some feature in .Net that generates the key. But again, imagine my application has generated 10 files, that means I've generated 10 keys. Now the problem is to decrypt, say the first file, how do I know which key I need to use. I dont think storing the key is a good idea even if the key is encrypted! Is there any ...Show All
