Look at the buttons section here at CodePeoject. Davide Calabro's CButtonST v3.4 (MFC Flat buttons) seems a popular one, and includes a lot of additional goodies.

You need to override the PreTranslateMessage member function of your CDialog class and call the CMyToolTipCtrl.RelayEvent

Argh....
I have code that looks like this:
in "ObjectCache.h":
template <class T>
class CObjectCache {
...
};
in "App.h":
#include "ObjectCache.h"
#include "DataObject.h"
class CApp {
CObjectCache<CDataObject> m_Cache;
...
};
Can anyone think of any reason why the compiler would be yacking on the m_Cache line? It's telling my that "m_Cache uses undefined class 'CObjectCache<class CDataObject>'
But as far as I can see, the class is defined - everything is defined in ObjectCache.h and it's included. And everything for the contained class CDataObject is defined in DataObject.h that's included.
I've transplanted this code into a plain application, and it works fine. In my MFC application, it's crapping out.
Any ideas at all?

Maybe it's the precompiled headers feature playing tricks again. Make sure your first #include in every .cpp is stdafx.h. If this doesn't work, try a "Rebuild all" as a last resort.

Done.

Doesn't fix it. 
I'm quite stumped. I've even dug through the preprocessor output (/E option) and my template is defined nicely (and so is the contained class).
ARrrrrgh.

Why don't you post your code here? Sometimes some obvious error is just yelling at you from the code and one just does not notice.

Ok, it's gigantic though.  Apologies for posting so much, but I have a feeling even this isn't enough to see the whole problem...
What follows is three class definitions. The first is the template that handles caching. This class has been transplanted to several other contexts and compiles just fine. The second class is one of the classes I'm trying to contain in the cache template. It just houses a bunch of data - you probably don't need to worry about the details. The third class is the MFC document object. It aggregates one of the cache templates for caching CDataSlice objects.
The compile error is:
flawdoc.h(51) : error C2079: 'm_SliceCache' uses undefined class 'CObjectCache<class CDataSlice>'
and it occurs in every file that includes flawdoc.h (which is most of the project). Line 51 is the line that defines the contained CObjectCache<CDataSlice> m_SliceCache in CFLAWDoc.
Thanks for taking the time, Joaquin. If you can find anything, I'll owe you big time.

Could you post the offendig .cpp as well?
Also, I've seen an unmatched #endif, but I guess it's a only copy&paste error.

As stupid as it would have made me look, you got my hopes up there! But yes, just a copy and paste error.
What follows is one of the offending .cpp files (with the corresponding header file as well). I'm sure the only thing you need to look at it the include order at the top of the .cpp.
Flaw.hpp just includes a bunch of constants carried over from the previous version.

The includes are definitely convoluted. We had some serious compilation time problems (like it was always recompiliing and each time took 5 minutes or so). So I read that Large-Scale C++ Design (Lakos - great book) and finally learned how it all worked.
The trouble is, part of this project was written by a C programmer and another part by a math grad just out of school. OO is new to them and so they don't follow the whole dependancy thing. And I didn't have time to explain it all.
So I ripped out all of the #includes, and hit F7. Added the first #include or forward definition (whichever was necessary) and then hit F7 again. 250 files worth. Took a while, but finally things compile at a reasonable speed and the only stuff that needs a "rebuild-all" frequently is the new math grad's stuff.

Could it be some of your safeguard #ifndefs are duplicated in your header files?
I don't think this is a problem but I'll check. I religiously only use one #ifndef per header and none in the .cpp files except MS's debug new stuff.

Another effective way to know wheter the code for CObjectCache is actually included is to insert an #error directive just in the middle of it. If the error does not pop up, something bad is happening

Excellent. I will remember this technique, thanks.
But in this case, it pops up a billion times - once for each time the file is included.

Well, this is shooting in the dark, but I guess your desperation justifies desperate measures. Try (if you like) copying and pasting the whole CObjectCache definition in one of the offending .cpp, just above the class that uses it. This is not a fix, just a test to see how the compiler behaves.

I shot, and it wasn't at all the problem, but it led me to it!!
I guess I don't quite understand templates yet... In the same way you add a forward declaration of a classA to a header file defining classB if a classB contains a pointer to classA (has-a), I had added a forward declaration of my template to one of the other header files.
When I copied the CObjectCache definition in front of the CFLAWDoc class, a bunch of things broke because of redefinitions... and in removing everything that caused the redefinitions, I came across that forward declaration.
Anyways, the forward is gone, the template definition is back to where it should be, and everything compiles and runs just fine.
Thank you sir. While you didn't actually find my problem, it probably would have taken me another day or two to find it without your suggestions.

Hey, glad to be helpful! Never been to Toronto, but came close a couple of years ago (tripped from Nova Scotia to Montreal, beautiful landscape).
The point you raised about forward declarations is interesting. As far a I know one can forward declare templates just like regular classes, and there's no VC++ bug about this feature that I know of. It'd be interesting to try to isolate this behavior in a tiny example (I'll might do it if I had some time spare), maybe you've hit a compiler bug.

Ok, here's something...
When I change it to a pointer member and change the CFLAWDoc constructor to "new" it, the compiler complains about 'CObjectCache<class CDataSlice>' : class has no constructors.
Now I've seen this before but only when the compiler has only seen a forward declaration and not the entire definition. Once again, I checked the preprocessor output and everything seems to be in place.

A shot in the dark ...
try putting typename in front of your CObjectCache variable declaration. If there is some confusion on the part of the compiler, maybe that will clear it up (or output a better error message).

Not sure what you mean really. I can't put it in front of the type in the allocation statement:
m_pCache = new typename CObjectCache<CDataslice>(2000);
because typename is only allowed inside a template. And it doesn't seem to do anything except provide an alias for a type inside the template.

Have you tried renaming the class ? I've had different problems in the past where I found my core problem was a class named after an MFC class, or a function named after one that MFC or ATL puts in there also, somewhere in the inheritance chain.

There is also the problem that if you name your H file after one of the system includes, it won't check for time changes. That one is a ***** to figure out.

I know what you're thinking punk, you're thinking did he spell check this document? Well, to tell you the truth I kinda forgot myself in all this excitement. But being this here's CodeProject, the most powerful forums in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question, Do I feel lucky? Well do ya punk?

Nope, I did a full search and there isn't anything that looks like my filename in the entire VS install. Nor is there anything in a full MSDN search with the same name.
I'm totally stumped.

Just tried it. Didn't help. But thanks.
I've looked through the preprocessor output and it's sitting right there.
It's as if it knows that CObjectCache is defined, and that CContainedObject is defined, but somehow CObjectCache<CContainedObject> isn't.
Does that make any sense?

I need a routine to save an icon to disc as an .ico file, or failing that copy an icon to the clipboard. Anybody know of one?
I'm never gonna work another day in my life.

lookup the ICONINFO structure and search MSDN for the article "Icons in Win32"
