• Visual C++ Can my VC++6 app tell if a piece of hardware is connected?

  I'm writing a VC++ 6 application which communicates with Audio Streaming I/O (ASIO) compliant audio devices.  The devices are attached via USB or FireWire, and the drivers are installed.  My application traverses the Registry and obtains a class ID (CLSID) for each device driver.  Using each CLSID, it requests a COM instance pointer by calling: CoCreateInstance (rClassId, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, rClassId, &pInstance); CoCreateInstance returns a valid instance pointer (pInstance) for each installed driver, regardless of whether the corresponding hardware is actually connected.  If the hardware is absent, my app ...Show All

• Visual Studio Visio and Visual Studio 2005 (Standard)

  I have Visio 2003 (Professional) on my system and I would like to use it with Visual Studio 2005 for reverse engeneering without having the expense of upgrading my Visual Studio edition. Is this possible If not why not - seems to me one purchases Visio in good faith and then purchases VS2005 in good faith but they do not work together! If this is true it would be like being unable to embed an Excel spreadsheet in a Word document! Hoping someone hears... Thanks, Kurt Sorry, but the fact that you have class designer built in to Visual Studio 2005, while a nice feature is a cop out. I do really like th ...Show All
