a CString can cast itself to an LPCTSTR, so CListBox.AddString doesn't need an explict CString overload.

but, i can see class variables in the Class View. click on the class in the top pane, and the members will appear in the bottom pane.

Chris,

Thanks for the tip. I had been clicking on the + to expand the class. Clicking the class does display the variables as you said. Now, how would I delete one of the variables or functions? In VC6 you could do that with the Class Wizard. Do I have to manually remove the members in VC++ 2008?

[Sarcasm] The removal of class wizard is one of the several intended "improvements". [/Sarcasm]

OK, this has nothing to do with visual studio versions, but I'd recommend using a control variable instead!

Again, if anyone has a recommendation for a good book that only covers the MFC part of VS2008

Among other things, Beginning Visual C++ 2008[^] covers MFC as well.

I do hate some of the the "changes" that they've made. But at least the compiler has improved a lot. Smile | :)

The loss of the class wizard drove me nuts at first. I still do a lot of work in VC6 and when the class wizard works, it's very refreshing. However, I'm reminded how often it fails and have found that I'm so accustomed to how VS 2008 works that a few things are now easier in VS 2008. Good news is that VS 2010 brings the class wizard back and improves on it, or at least parts of it (I haven't dug deeply into it.)

Do note that MFC itself hasn't changed much if up-porting an app. There is the feature pack additions (which range from interesting to totally junk) and there are some minor quirks when up-porting MFC.

As for the class wizard replacement; you use the properties. Triggering it is very confusing but you basically have to open the properties pane and .h file and click on the class name or the .cpp file and click in the message map block. A lightning, and two nonsense icons will pop up on the top of the pane which will show you events, messages and overrides.

Like I said, I totally hated this at first, but it's grown on me. I'll still welcome the class wizard back, but won't totally abandon this method. And given all the other niceties of VS 2008, I'm very ready to abandon VC 6 in about three week's time (I've actually already converted the entire solution to VS 2008, but we can't switch until we ship our current release, which is in beta. One very nice thing will be that our .NET and C++ modules will be built with the same solution for now on.)

Thanks everyone for the help and suggestions. I guess I'll just have to grit my teeth and learn the new IDE.

I manually deleted a couple of variables and classes from the test app that I was working on and it went well. Not as easy as the old class wizard but at least it works.

How can I get in MFC to display Operating system version(Vista, Xp, etc..) if possible? Any ApI, or Registry ?

Why? If eBay wanted you to have that info, they would not have got to such lengths to keep it from you. Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

Hello all,

I have began to get very interested in the security of a program. Along side with that I figured it would be beneficial to me to learn how to capture a programs memory. I want to be able to take a snapshot of whats going on behind the scenes.

I know I need to work with the iostream with C++. I am taking a class in C++ now but wanna work on a side project on my own.

So would anyone have any recommendations for me as to where I should start reading?

Thank you all very much in advance for your responses.

Upgrading to... ??? [modified]

Hi all,

since I want to improve my knowledge (just for myself, not related to job yet) I am thinking on speaking with my firm to install a new version of Visual Studio (from the ones available) and start on my own.

I mainly know about c++, MFC and VC6 (I'm noway a guru though, just middle level).

The versions I can get from my firm are VS .Net 2003, VS .Net 2005 and VS .Net 2008 (I am not thinking on learn c# yet, but I will somewhen). I am interested in VC++ (with or without MFC) but with C++ standards proximity in the new VS. I have already read several times that there are some important changes between versions.

So.. which one of them do you think I should choose?

Regards.
