OK - something about inline functions needing to have their implementation be in the .H file comes to mind (after the class dec.), but I cannot find anything about it in the MSDN collection. I remember that this was a bug in VC++ 6.0 or something like that?
Peace!

Inline functions are not visible outside of the source file where they are defined. This is why you seem then declared in the same file, usually at the bottom, in which they are defined.

I'm looking for a good book to re-learn programming (in C++). I have Stroustrup but I have the feeling this will be more useful to me once I'm comfortable again. I've been away from programming for at least 4 years and only really learned "on the job" (tools programming windows dialog based apps), but would like to build a more solid foundation this time. I also have Eckels book but again this doesn't seem to be the kind of thing I'm after (though it's excellent on its own merits). I just wondered if there was a good "one book" answer to getting me started with the basics, including setting up compiling and linking properly (and understanding it!), and then building knowledge of the language and libraries etc in a structured, easy to follow way.
thanks in advance.

Since you asked a C++ question in a VC++ forum, which is it that you are ultimately after?

Other than the C++/CLI forum wouldn't this be the place?

By no means was I trying to be argumentative. I just didn't want to suggest Kruglinksi's "Inside Visual C++" book to him and then get a "But that's for Visual C++. I want to learn C++ first." response. Seeing as how he already has Stroustrup's book, I wasn't too sure of which route he wanted to take.

Sorry, I just spotted the VC++ forum and posted here, perhaps the other forum was the better one.
Anyway, as I mentioned originally, I want a Stroustrup style book but one that's more of a handheld walkthrough of C++ in a structured way. I had one or two but I can't remember the name of them - maybe Konig, or Shildt? That kind of thing, but I was also hoping that someone would have a good recommendation that will teach me thoroughly but also be fairly accessible.

Books are one of those things that are highly opinionated. You can ask a dozen people what their favorite is and you'll get 12 different answers. Everyone dis/likes a book for a different reason. I started programming in C and C++ with the help of Schildt and Petzold. Some folks shy away from those authors for various reasons. If you have a book in mind, check out amazon.com for customer reviews.

LINK : warning LNK4089: all references to "SHELL32.dll" discarded by /OPT:REF
I keep getting this but don't know where to fix it. A search on google seemed to suggest I just need to take this out of project settings but i can't find it at all, I assume on the Link tab?
Any ideas?

This is not a problem. This is telling you that even though you are linking with the import library for SHELL32, you are not actually using any thing from the SHELL32 DLL (either by not explicitly calling something from the DLL, or code that did optimized out).
The result of this is that even though you linked with that DLL's import library, the executable will not require implicit (load-time) loading of that DLL.
Remove SHELL32.lib from your libraries, that should resolve the warning.
Peace!

If he is using MFC, then shell32.lib is linked in dynamicly via a #pragma comment(lib, "shell32.lib") statement in afx.h. It can not be removed from from the library list without modifying the MFC sources.

I am using MFC for a dialog app. Can't find the pragma comment, or indeed afx.h, I have StdAfx.h included in my project though

As I said, it is not a "real" problem. In this case, you may have to deal with the warning...

Good morning .. .
I know I can use CString::FormatMessage to format strings when localizating my application ( see this[^] )
Is there an equivalent in STL or for standard C++ or is that too OS/Toolkit oriented to have a unified solution ?

all i know of is sprintf.

CString/CStringT::FormatMessage(...) wraps the standard FormatMessage(...) function.
This function uses a writable character buffer to format the string into. I do not know of a "proper" way to get writable access to the internal buffer in a basic_string object (data() returns a const pointer to the data).
I would suggest that you allocate a temporary buffer, format into it, and then assign the contents of that buffer to the STL string:
TCHAR caBuffer[ 1024 + 1 ];<br />
<br />
::FormatMessage( ... caBuffer ... );<br />
caBuffer[ 1024 ] = _T( '\0' );<br />
ssYourSTLString = caBuffer;
Peace!

no,no ( but thanks for the info ... ) 
I was wondering if there was a standard STL/C++ way to deal with such an issue ? if the STL group or C++ standard had such concerns or if it's too closelly tied to the OS/Toolkits.

"no, no" about what? 
Anyway, yes; the FormatMessage(...) is not a "standard" function, like how one may consider printf(...), a standard function - it is a Windows platform function, so not something one would expect to be handled by standard C++ or STL.
Peace!

I am busy writing up an article for CP that just what you are asking for. I expect to have it ready for posting in a couple of days. If you send me your email address I can send you the demo code that I have ready so far. Then you can test it for me;P

RemoveDirectory(LPCTSTR lpPathName);
is used for where the path must specify an empty directory, but i want to remove a directory and also the files and folders that are in the specified folder , how can do that?
as per MSDN
BOOL RemoveDirectory(LPCTSTR lpPathName);
lpPathName
[in] Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the path of the directory to be removed. The path must specify an empty directory, and the calling process must have delete access to the directory.
Regards.
