try use in your cpp file:

#include "stdafx.h"

or disable use of precompiled header for that file ....

Hi,
Can i hide my system tray somehow..
Programatically..

I've seen a program that when run just hides the
system tray and a small line appears - when you
move your mouse over that the system tray appears again.

Its probably the system tray has been moved to right ..

How can i do that

MFC Extension DLL Problems

The answer is :

// DON'T display a new MDI child window during startup!!!
cmdInfo.m_nShellCommand = CCommandLineInfo::FileNothing;

Put this code at the end of you InitInstance for your app

// stop a new document being created if just run normally
if (cmdInfo.m_nShellCommand == CCommandLineInfo::FileNew)
    cmdInfo.m_nShellCommand = CCommandLineInfo::FileNothing ;

Just before the call to ProcessShellCommand

I am creating my first MFC Extension DLL. Everything I have read so far said that it would be pretty easy but I have am having some problems.

I want to put a dialog in a DLL so multiple apps can use it. I created the DLL using AppWizard and used ClassWizard to create the CDialog class. I added AFX_EXT_CLASS to export the class. The DLL compiles fine.

Now I go over to the app and try to show the dialog. I enter the lib into the linker's input library list. I add the class' header file to the project, and I include the header in the file. I compile the app and I keep getting this error:

error C2065: 'IDD_FACILITY_CALENDAR_DIALOG' : undeclared identifier

IDD_FACILITY_CALENDAR_DIALOG being the dialog in the DLL

I am also using an OCX in the dialog that exist in the app already, and I am getting a Class redefinition on the wrapper files for the OCX.

Any ideas.
Thanks in advance.

Your IDD_FACILITY_CALENDAR_DIALOG is defined in your DLL projects Resource.h file. This file is by default not included in your dialogs header, hence the undeclared identifier error. Either include your Resource.h in the dialog header, or remove the enum containing IDD_FACILITY_CALENDAR_DIALOG (IDD) from the header file. It's only used in the constructor. Use IDD_FACILITY_CALENDAR_DIALOG directly in the dialog cpp instead.

As for the OCX I don't know. Does your wrapper contain #ifndefs to protect the header?

I have included the resource.h into the dialog header. The DLL compiles fine. It is when I compile the app that i get the error. As for using the Dlg directly in the cpp, how do go about doing that?

Also I figured out the OCX problem, I just had to add the include statment before another one in the file. Big Grin | :-D

Thanks for yoyr help.

In your header, you have something like: enum { IDD = IDD_CALENDAR_DIALOG };. This is where your problem is. Remove this line.
In your cpp-file, change

CCalendarDlg::CCalendarDlg(CWnd* pParent /*=NULL*/)
	: CDialog(CCalendarDlg::IDD, pParent)

CCalendarDlg::CCalendarDlg(CWnd* pParent /*=NULL*/)
	: CDialog(IDD_CALENDAR_DIALOG, pParent)

and your problems will be gone. Just note that you wont have the class wizards support if you decide to change the ID of your dialog from the resource editor. In this case you will have to change the identifier in the cpp yourself.

COM Problem -

Hi,
I have an MFC applciation..
it has one class which uses COM to get history
of the system (internet history)..

But if i install it on some win95 machine that
module is not working.. does the machine require
some runtime environment and how do i deploy that
on that machine..

Does it use DCOM ? I believe DCOM needs to be installed on a W95 machine.
