• Visual C++ window class help

  Anybody can give me a help (example, code, link) about window class In fact, my question is about how a window object can control an other window object. I believe you can use multiple forms in such case. For example:  1) Start a default win form application and add another form for it (e.g. form2)      You can do that by right clicking on "header files ->add->New Item->UI ->Windows forms   2) In the code for your original form (form1.h), add:       #include "form2.h"     3) Now you can add to the class form1 a new public form (let us say ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System DoNotCastUnnecessarily: Release vs Debug

  When I compare the outputs of FxCop for my assemblies in Debug and Release build modes, the results are very different. The Debug report shows 233 more issues that are all related to "DoNotCastUnnecessarily" messages. Is the compiler optimizing things for a release build and that's why I don't see the messages in my Release report That's interesting (and worrying) that the optimizations are disabled if you enable the pdbs. In all my 3 years of using .NET/Visual Studio .NET I never realized that. It's going to have to be something I look at when I get into work today and will probably mean that I w ...Show All
