I have done image processing for years. This is code development not deliverable. (I turn the code over to others and they make it run on a hardware processor.) Development has always been done by me reading thousands of images as separate files on the hard disk. In the last …

Is there anyone out there that finds Visual C++ (ver8) Debugger broken? Specifically with regard to variables out of scope. I have asked here about specific problems and none of the proposed solutions work. The debugger works on the easiest of things, but half the time, things that are obviously …

I have about a year of full time experience with Visual C++ 2008. I am productive but I'm still frustrated with the debugger. Is this the right forum to get help with the debugger? My biggest problem is not seeing any value when the variable is deeply burried within an …

What I want to do must be easy because I can't find it on the web. I have existing C code with char* strings all over the place. I'd like to get those strings to the Form1.h file so I can use them there. All I want is... String^ newText; …

The clock() function works fine in Visual C++ Version 6. I used it for evaluating how many milliseconds certain functions needed. But with Version 8 it won't let me use time.h the library that holds clock(). Naturally the error is unreadable, but there's hundreds of them and its obviously complaining …

Using Visual C++ (CLI type) I can place a rectangle of any width and color on the screen where the ends are defined by the calls to ->MouseDown and ->MouseUp. But I'd like to see the rectangle grow while I'm holding the mouseButton down. It seems like I should be …

I have two recommendations for those already familiar with command line C++: [LIST] [*]Here's a trick: put your cursor on a blank place in your code and hit Ctrl-Space. That will call up IntelliSense for all commands that work for the type of program you selected when you ran the …

We use Windows Form1.h to interface an existing C++ program. The existing program is changed by other people and I have to update the interface. To do that I copy all folders of the older project to a different place and then introduce the changes there. The problem is, that …

I've copied an entire project/solution to another folder so I could create a different version. I made some changes in the source code that is unrelated to the Windows user I/O stuff. I've done that before, but this time, it found errors in a... form1.h instead of Form1.h Where did …

Why did Microsoft Visual C++ developers choose "Form1.h" for us to put all of our source code in, instead of a Form1.cpp? I find the Form1.h file to grow without bound; thousands of lines... in an "h" file! Walt

I've been programming in C++ for 20 years and finally got the size of my mains down. I've been programming in C++/CLI for about 20 days, and I'm back to my old buggy-boo, uncontrolled file size. In this case it is the Form1.h file. It has about 20 controls using …

Why can't I declare this near the top of the Form1.h file... int trackArray[4][999]; It strikes error C4368; something about mixed type. What is mixed about the types? Walt

I have a Windows program (Visual C++ CLI Type) that displays video in a sub window. When something happen the user makes a note of the event by hitting a button. The problem is that the event involves a number of choices and finding the right button to click is …

For a CLR type program in Visual C++, I need to record the file date of the version of the program being run. That seems like a very normal thing to do but I can't find a solution (that works) on the web. I'm able to read the date of …

The .h file traditionally holds declarations and the .cpp file the definitions. The #include inserts the human readable ASCII code that is the .h file, right there at the top before compiling. The main purpose of the .h file was to gather together all the declarations (more even than you …

From the point of view of a command line programmer (whose been at it for 25 years) what is the difference between MFC and .net?

Can someone please correct this... Microsoft is in the best position to answer questions, but they are incapable of saying anything negative about ATL, MFC, Win32 or anything else they invented. Beginners are left with the impression that nothing is better than anything else. Can someone (who is willing to …
