Visual C++ Debuggin issue
Hi, I'm compiling an application with /Od and /Zi. When I omit the -DEBUG linker flag I get a crash in my application. When I add the -DEBUG flag it does not crash anymore. Any idea how to debug this Thanks, Manu Hi, Reproducible under the debugger, means that when launched from the VS IDE. It has been my experience that often bugs only show up when launched outside the IDE and not within. In my case, it was both. Unfortunately no small code snippet. -DEBUG means /DEBUG option of the linker. So it has nothing to do with the C generated code. The only difference is this linker option. ...Show All

Windows Forms How to disable "Ctrl-Tab" navigating between MDIChildren
Hi. I've tried to find an answer for this, but i think the terms are too general. I'm developing a windows app that uses MDI. We've created our own (simple) framework wherein the forms are navigated through a tabcontrol, i.e. tabbed forms. An unexpected bonus of the MDI was that the user can switch between the open forms with "Ctrl-Tab" and "Ctrl-Shift-Tab", and i respond the the "Deactivate" and "Activate" events to manage which Tab on the control is displayed. There are a few forms that I wish to be "Modal", but still within the tab framework. I've achieved this by merely di ...Show All
