C / C++ / MFC

I have checked my program in a computer without visual studio, with debug version crashed because how missing dlls, but release worked good. But now, with your answer.

The question is... Should the release version of a normal MFC-Win32 program work in all computers (supposing no dll is used at all)? Or better include this vcredist_x86 in all applications?

Greetings.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

Which Compiler are you using.. since in Visual Studio 2005, you required to deploy Manifest file needed to run VC++ application !

In that case, things are even more simple: you just need to distribute your executable and the dll on which it depends. If you statically link to all the dlls, you can just distribute your exe.

The debug version will never work, even if you run vcredist_x86.exe on the target computer (it only install the release versions of the libraries). Now, you could avoid to distribute this executable if you statically link to the C run-time library and to the MFC dll's (but I'm not 100% sure because I never tested it).

I statically link all the time and you are correct - you do not need vcredist_x86.exe if you statically link.

may be the program isn't compatible with the OS you are using. So i suggest to try to run the application with "run with compatibility with Win95,98,nt,..." may be it will work.

LNK4099 problem

Hi,
I am using a 3rd party SDK to build one sample DLL application. I am using their static lib to link with my project.

During linking, I am getting the following warning message:
gdal.lib(cplgetsymbol.obj) : warning LNK4099: PDB 'vc80.pdb' was not found with '..\dev\dw32\gdal.lib' or at '..\dev\dw32\vc80.pdb'; linking object as if no debug info

There are lots of such warnings. I am using VS2005 to build my application.

In code generation I am using Multi Threaded Debug DLL (/MDd).
Can you tell me the way to remove LNK 4099 warnings and what is the cause for this?

Regards
Sunil

I dont know if for that, it will be the same, but I disable usual compiler warnings with

#pragma warning(disable:XXXX)

Hope it helps

Nopes it doesnt work. I have already tried that. In the Linker options, also i tried to add /wd4099 or /ignore:4099..Nothing of them worked.

I told it. "usual compiler warnings"

i was referring to the second part of the intial message, not to the liner error

JudyL_MD19-Oct-07 2:38

Your 3rd party has provided you with a release-mode lib file. The linker is correctly telling you that it can't find the debugging symbols for the library in question. This means you can't step into it in the debugger (except as assembly code). The warning will not affect your use of the library. You won't get the warnings in your release build.

Reading an inf file

Is reading an Inf file same as raeding a normal text file?

If no , then what all has to be done to read an inf file?

Re: Reading an inf file

Nelek18-Oct-07 23:30

I think it depends on what a format it has, Binary - Text and so on..

but it should be similar about the concept.

Yes. There are rules governing what is contained within a "valid" INF file, but it is just a text file.

Hi everybody!
I am learning WIN32 API. I read in MSDN about this but I can't understand how to use it.
Please show me how to use it by example! or can send me a demo it.
Thanks alot....

Hi,

for example I used it in my project to select which functionality to use when Enter is pressed. I have a HotKey to open/close windows for parametrization of objects, but I want to have the functionality to accept and check what was written in a edit. So I made:

void CMyView::OnEdit1SetFocus ()
{
m_bEditFocused = TRUE;
return;
}

void CMyView::OnEdit1KillFocus ()
{
m_bEditFocused = FALSE;
return;
}

//This is the message that has a related HotKey
void CMyView::OnEnterKeyPressed() 
{
	if (m_bEditFocused )
		//Get and validate what in the edit is
	else if (!m_bEditFocused && m_bOtherBool)
		//Do another thing
	else
		//Close this window
	
	return;
}

I hope it helps
