Introduction

This is a Visual Studio .NET wizard ready to generate WTL projects.

Installation procedure

To properly install this wizard you must follow these steps:

  1. The ZIP file contains two files and a folder. You must copy both files to Project folder for Visual C++ 7 inside .NET main installation folder ( [Root]:\[Program Files Folder]\VC7\VCProjects ). These are the two files:
    • WTL Wizard.vsz
    • WTL Wizard.ico

  2. The folder named "WTL Wizard" and all its content must be copied to ( [Root]:\[Program Files Folder]\VC7\VCWizards )

In order to get this wizard working in debug mode, a change must be made in WTL 3.1 header file atlapp.h. You must comment out the following line:

//
// atlapp.h
//
enum wtlTraceFlags
{
//    atlTraceUI = 0x10000000
};

The next time you create a new project in VC++, you'll see a new WTL Wizard

Note: We've set as default the "Detect 64-bit Portability Issues" option in the pre-processor.
