Hi,
How do I generate line number information in the MAP files for C++/VC++ projects? I am using Visual C++ 2005 and could not find any option to generate such information. VC++ 6.0 had an option for generating line number information in the MAP file. This option is present on C++ tab, Debug info drop-down in VC++ 6.0
Thanks and Regards.

It looks like the /MAPINFO:LINES linker option has been removed starting with VS 2005.

May I ask what you need the MAP file for? Many people are under the mistaken impression that to debug a release build you need a MAP file, whereas in reality you can just enable debug information in your release build and use your debugger (almost) as per normal.

Every now and then when I am looking at crash dumps from the field.... if the debugger's not helping (using a PDB), sometimes the map has a clue.

Map files does have information at times which can be useful. More over I receive a screen shot from customers or beta testers which has just offset information. Using map files and line number information is sometimes easier to locate the crash location as discussed in some of the articles on this site.

In my solution I have 2 projects, a static library project and a executable project.
How do you set the entry point on the executable project to the WinMain() inside the static library?
|
|
|
|
|
In the linker/advanced properties of the project, you should be able to set
an entry point.
Remember you may be bypassing CRT library initialization if that applies.
See /ENTRY (Entry-Point Symbol)[^]

I have to use a third-party ActiveX control in my project,it creates many classes when used in VC 6.0 and is very powerful,but in VC.NET,it creates only one class,and only a few methods,and there are many methods that we can not know the meaning by their names,such as Wrapper1(),Wrapper2()...,so I can not use the control easily,can you tell me how I can use it`s all methods,thanks very much!

I have picture box within dialog box.
I want to find it's location on dialog box
I used the function as
CRect myRect;
CWnd *ptr = GetDlgItem(IDC_PICTURE);
ptr->GetClientRect(&myRect);
but this gives me height and width of picture box
but i want to find the exact location of picture box
i.e. top-left coordinate of picturebox according to the dialog box client area.
Please help me for this......

CRect myRect;
CWnd *ptr = GetDlgItem(IDC_PICTURE);
ptr->GetWindowRect(&rect);
ScreenToClient(&rect); Using GetWindowRect() returns the screen coordinates of the control. The ScreenToClient() call converts the screen coordinates to client coordinates, in this case relative to the dialog.

Hi,
I recently installed VS8, but don't like it much and would like to switch back to VS6.
Is it possible to install VS8 and VS6 on the same WinXP system. Will this create any conflict?
Thanks.

Yes, it is possible. I do it without a problem. Just make sure you install VS6 first (uninstall VS8 if currently installed and then reinstall it after VS6).

as John said, yes, Both IDE can cohabit.
BTW, do you know that VC6 compiler doesn't fit to the C++ standard ?
VS2003 is far more compliant, and it's said that VS2005 respect it to about 98%.
it's up to you to use VC6 then, but you'd better used yourself to VS2005 anyways...

We can't blame them for not writing with Industry standard. The finalized version of Visual C++ standard was last released in 1998. I think at the time time, Microsoft released Visual C++ 98 (version 12 I think). still many people are using the same compiler and IDE as they've made up their system using this popular old compiler.

My job still depends on it.

Hi,
I have an application written in VC++6 using DAO 3.5 to connect to MS Access. Will this application work in Windows Vita if installed just the way it is? Or will I have to make changes to it?
Unfortunately, I do not have a Vista machine to verify. The application was made to be compatible with win98/XP and now it is required to make it Vista compatible too.
Thank you.

It should work, but you have to provide all the required DLLs.
to figure out which one you need to bring with your exe, use Dependency Walker[^] (if you have VC6, you already have it under the name depends.exe)
