Randy, Check out the file MFCJ.ZIP in the forum library, section 15 ("Unmonitored Chat"). It should explain everything you need to know…if not, feel free to ask. Thanks for your interest! Mary Kirtland MFCJournal
John, This is a bug in the NT version of MFC2.0. I believe ExitInstance() is *supposed* to be called in the PROCESS_DETACH case for DllMain(), but it isn't. Basically, you need to write your own DllMain(). I'm pretty sure you just need to modify the case for dwReason == DLL_PROCESS_DETACH…
Check to see if your menu has any item with empty text, or has a vertical separator at the end. If I remember correctly, those are two things that cause the half height menu problem… Hope this helps, Mary Kirtland MFCJournal
> Oh, I think you would have found out pretty quickly… Mary
>> Just what's wrong with "OCX" anyway? Maybe they don't want to explain what the "X" stands for… Mary
Chris, Thanks for asking! The book will not be out until sometime next year. We decided to target a future version of MFC, rather than spend a lot of time digging into the current implementation on Win16 and immediately be out of date… Mary
Mike, Check out the file MFCJ.ZIP in the forum library, section 15 ("Unmonitored Chat"). That explains how to get a subscription. Since I uploaded the file, the phone number has changed. It is now 408-245-0571. (Actually, the address has changed too, but I don't know what it is yet…). Thanks…
Larry, I'll forward your message and ask someone to get in touch with you. Are you in Chicago?? Between the problems SFA has been having on their end, and the reported problems with postal service in Chicago, perhaps it is not suprising that you haven't received anything… I'm beginning to…
Don, We're not that big… Contact Software Frameworks directly. The easiest way is probably via internet – info@frameworks.org. Mary Kirtland MFCJournal
#MFCJournal Issue #2
Message #30353
Here's the latest scoop on issue #2: Issue #2 was mailed June 26-27 via bulk rate mail. Note that bulk rate mail can be a lot slower than first class… WARNING: Magazines are mailed in envelopes with the SFA logo and return address. There is NO indication on the envelop…
Israel, I don't know how VB handles calls into DLLs. I suspect that somewhere in your VB app, you call LoadLibrary() or an equivalent. If so, the DLL gets loaded when that call is made. You might check with folks in the MSBASIC forum to see how VB does its…
Andy, I'm going to have to think about this one for a few minutes… I'll get back to you sometime this weekend. Mary Kirtland MFCJournal
Derived classes access the static members of the base class. They don't get their own copy. Mary Kirtland MFCJournal
Larry, Calling EndDialog() should definitely help… Issue #2 was mailed June 26-27 via bulk rate mail. SFA has a new phone number:408-245-0571. Mary Kirtland MFCJournal
LOL == Laughing out loud.
Mark, as others have indicated, VCNT targets 32-bit exe's only. You can use Win32s to run those exes on a Windows 3.1 or WfWg machine. If you're using Win32, you should be using the Win32 file functions. Hope this helps, Mary Kirtland MFCJournal
