• Visual C++

  . I am going to address your core question: There is already a lot of discussion in the C++ community that #include <iostream> already pulls in way too many other headers - and believe me it was not designed this way. Why should <iostream> pull in <string> The two are not related and there is really no reason why one should depend on the other. We do provide every STL function and algorith ...Show All

• Windows Forms Bringing Modal dialog to front when disabled main window clicked

  I have a .NET application which can display several independent main windows (basically different documents). When one of them launches a modal dialog, all of them are disabled. I can live with that (it's a single-threaded application for the forseeable future). But, it's possible to get into a state where the modal dialog and its owner window are hidden by other applications. If I then click on a main window that is NOT the owner of the mo ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Crying like a baby

  Hi there. I’m an MCSE. I became an MCSE because I felt that Microsoft products truly allowed me to help my clients with their needs. And the lapel pin makes me look cool. I have been doing a lot of simple VBA programming lately, and have decided to really take the programming plunge. This means even more waving the Microsoft flag and converting consumers to Microsoft believers. It also means another lapel pin, and ...Show All
