Hi All,

I am looking for a linker symbol in 100+ .lib files. I have the linker symbol, but how do I find which library it is in?

regards,
Rich

Maybe a dumb answer, but I bet you can search for the symbol name inside the libs. (with Find in Files, for instance.).

Nope, Find Files didn't find anything with the names that I need (but I know they are there).

Have you searched for the exact variable name, or for the variable name preceeded by an underscore, as in the error message ?

Both. I think Find in Files is not searching properly. I tried looking for WinMainCRTStartup in the Platform SDK files, and it wasn't found.

cheers,
Rich

I can only find it in makefiles, in my SDK, for instance:

C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT SDK\include\Win32.Mak(548):savlflags = $(lflags) -subsystem:windows,$(EXEVER) -entry:WinMainCRTStartup

Drawing on an activex control

I know that one of the ways to draw on static controls is creating a CStatic Class and perform the paintings there (Overriding the OnPaint()).

How can I draw on an activex control? D'Oh! | :doh:

thanx

Activexcontrols are COleControl derived classes and it si basically from CWnd. So u can use all the methods, msgs and overrides that u use for Cwnd. That means u can do the drawings in OnPaint, OnDraw, OnEraseBackGround etc..

Okey mil10.
I am using an activex control (particularly a microsoft web browser) in an MFC application.

Can I place my drawings in the OnPaint() function of the dialog which holds the activex control ?? If yes, would it be drawn on top of the activex control or in the dialog's client area ???

thanx alot Smile | :)

Hum, and why do you want to do such a thing ??? You cannot do that. This is a device context and contains informations about your display and things like that. So it is totally ridiculous to send that on a network.
Why do you want to do such a thing ?

Running Windows NT Service on Windows Server 2003

Does anyone know whether it is possible to run an NT Service under a Windows Server 2003 environment. I have a Windows NT service created using the CNTService class that's been posted on the internet a number of times, and I am trying to run the same service under Windows Server 2003. Unfortunately a DLL that I create an instance for does not get created correctly.

Regards,

Why? Are you receiving compiler/linker errors?

I can't seem to create the instance of the VB DLL that I am trying to access. It says it can't create the object, and yet I have an import statement at the top of my code for the NTService which ensure that the VB DLL is known about.
