Since STL is the C++ Standard Library that's quite natural.
Another Visual C++ Expression Edition missing feature is the resource editor.

I did notice that for the 2008 express edition they are emphasizing building of native win32 apps.
I recall using the 2005 express edition and it was really annoying as they basically set it up to, by default, disable native app projects, and you had to go through all these steps to re-enable them. As though everyone wants to have .NET force fed to them...
I think they must have gotten a lot of negative feedback or something, because if you go to the 2008 express download page, it specifically highlights native app creation

I have Visual C++ 2008, free download version. In my old Borland C++, an .exe project could be compiled in "static" mode or in "dynamic" mode. In dynamic mode, for running efficiency program code could be moved about at run time. This sometimes resulted in variables changing value unexpectedly, a nuisance which I cured by changing to static mode. Please what is the Visual C++ 2008 equivalent of those "static" and "dynamic" modes?

Are you asking about statically vs. dynamically linking with the MFC libraries?

I guess so from the Google result with the keywords "Borland static dynamic mode".

Without even researching this, I'm just going to say your code is not going
to move and affect any variables at runtime when compiled with VC, unless
you write your code to do it.
This sounds like something from the pre protected mode processor days.

Today a question like
"regarding IUnknown and type safety..."
is missing.

So now you're missing him  I guess he ran out of easy questions and went away to find some harder ones: What is a vtordisp? Why can't you do multiple inheritence in MFC? How can you do synchronisation in pure C++ without relying on API calls, Would your laptop battery last longer or shorter on a trip to the moon at 0.8 of the speed of light and would it make any difference to the total number of clock cycles your code could run for. When he has all the answers to all the question in the whole of space-time then he will post an article telling us the ultimate formula for the universe. Just make sure you don't give him any wrong information along the way or it might lead to disaster 
Nothing is exactly what it seems but everything with seems can be unpicked.

BTW probably the laptop battery will last longer, but anyway its is a small effect (it is a very short trip, 1.6 s).

Shhh, don't tell him, that would spoil the surprise, but you're right of course for tea two is the answer and Wowbanger the infinitely prolonged had the question all along.

I created an ATL dll in vs 2005 and invoked it from MAtlab using loadlibrary (in MAtlab). No problems. But when I try the same thing on a non development machine that has no VS on it, I cannot do loadlibrary -- Matlab gives me an error saying the application configuration is incorrect. I googled and seem to gather it is because I dont have VS on the clean machine. I got the VS redistributable exe (said its for non-dev machines so VS apps can run on them) from microsoft and loaded it on the clean machine but still no success.
What do I need to do?
thanks,
sb

In addition to installing the redistributable runtimes for the version you built for,
also make sure none of the modules are linking to the debug runtime libraries, which
aren't redistributable.

That was the problem, Mark. I had built debug dlls. Soon as I changed the project configuration I was able to load the librar. MAny thanks!

Don't you think it would help a lot if you would provide the exact error messages and on which line they appear instead of posting all your code ?

i never seen such a programmer, who is regretting that he was able to produce only few bugs.
Any way, specify the error and format the code within <pre> </pre> tags, it is difficult for others who finds some extra time from their schedule to answer.

How do you know his bugs are little?

- use
<pre> tags to surround code snippets. - Please report, for each error:
- the line of code wherein the error occurred
- the error message

You know, for us non-web programmers, that's really unintuitive.
WTF is "pre"? Doesn't "code" make a lot more sense around code?

Short for PREserve, or PREformatted.
