Yea that's must be great to hear. VC 6 is not fully following ISO standard for C++. But it's easy to use (if we ignore the problems with class wizard and all). One of the best IDE, I've ever used. The new Visual Studio IDE is not so responsive as the old one. But it's having improved compiler and libraries

That's the approach I've always used - but the only porting I've done was 50-60 kLOC of non-MFC code from VC6 to VC7.1. I was using lots of STL, lots of Boost, so moving to VC7.1 was a blessed relief
I think that if you've stuck to documented parts of MFC (which is not what the OP's done, from what I can tell), you'll be mostly OK.
I suppose I ought to port some of my old VC6 stuff, seeing as I no longer have any VC6 installs, but I have trouble getting enthused as a) they work, b) the customers aren't wanting updates, and c) did I mention, they work Also - one of them is my first ever MFC app (originally written in VC5!). I've looked at it since, and it's horrible - I don't want to dip my toes in that sewer!

many thanks Stuart - it seems (very luckily) for me that anything Im going to port is non-MFC, STL, Boost, ACE (I should have mentioned this up-front)
thanks again

What are you talking about and how does it relate to C++/MFC?

Have you accidentally hit CTL + to enlarge the font displayed - often the new larger font causes fixed forms to look screwy - things overlap. To test this, hit CTL -.

I was going to suggest the Win32_NetworkAdapter WMI class, but the MaxSpeed property is optional.
Using PDH, I successfully queryied the Current Bandwidth counter of the Network Interface object. Give that a go and see if it meets your needs.

Why do we use a pointer to a Device context ?
CDC* pDC
I'm learning from a book and it doesn't tells why he is using a pointer rather than a simple variable

A pointer can be passed more easily than a large structure, and a CDC* is the convention used by MFC when invoking OnDraw () handlers.
|
|
|
|
|
Nothing else? Are there any more benefits using it? I guess not.
Thanks

What more do you want? It gives you full access to the MFC drawing capabilities. (Have you ever tried to implement your own line-drawing routine?)
|
|
|
|

It's actually calling CWnd::GetDC() function which wraps the the following code
ASSERT(::IsWindow(m_hWnd));
return CDC::FromHandle(::GetDC(m_hWnd));
The FromHandle creates a new DC object in the Handle Map[^]. You will have to call CDC::ReleaseDC to release the DC acquired using GetDC. The object will be cleaned up on MFC Idle processing[^]
