Including stdafx.h in a non-default location  Version: 0.00     Price: $0.00

Read Reviews | Write Review |  Your Rating: 

The vc compiler automatically disambiguates the location of stdafx.h when you #include "stdafx.h", using a set of defined rules (see MSDN for specifics), BUT IntelliSense does not. Therefore even when a piece of code compiles successfully, IntelliSense will not work correctly because it doesn't use the same logic as the compiler. If you specify the exact location of the file, as in #include "..\\stdafx.h", IntelliSense will now work right, but the compiler will call an error since it's looking f...

Syntax Colouring for VBScript in Visual Studio 6  Version: 0.00     Price: $0.00

Read Reviews | Write Review |  Your Rating: 

Visual C++ does not provide nice features such as syntax colouring for many languages other than C++ itself. One of these "poorer relation" languages is VBScript. With the increasing availability and usefulness of VBScript since the original release of Visual Studio 6, it may be quite desirable to use VBScript for purposes such as creating build scripts. However, it can be quite difficult to read yet another programming language without syntax colouring to lend a helping hand. As a result, it ma...

Whether you have been programming for a few months or a few years, chances are you have came across the terms binary (bin for short) and hexadecimal (hex for short) at some point. For the programmers that have begun their careers in the years of late, these enigmatic topics are considered known only to well-seasoned programmers. In contrast, some of the older, more experienced programmers were shown this to be a fundamental concept when programming for computers. This shift in thought results in...

The Boost initiative is the next hottest thing after STL for the C++ community. While the documentation is quite good, it can be overwhelming to get a quick start. This simple article explains a method of building Boost libraries. I wrote it because many questions in the newsgroups are about linker errors, which happen if you try to link against some of the Boost libraries. The original article was written with Boost version 1.33, but the updated version works only with the new Bjam syntax which...

If you develop in any way like I do, then you are probably always writing place fillers and temporary bits that show a message box rather than doing the full action - "I'll write that later".

Did you know that Visual Studio can help you keep track of these? Go to the View menu, Task List. Now the task list is displayed along with the error list, bookmarks and output window. Select "Comments" rather than "User Tasks" and edit your code....

In computing, a connection string is a string that specifies information about a data source and the means of connecting to it. It is passed in code to an underlying driver or provider in order to initiate the connection. Whilst commonly used for a database connection, the data source could also be a spreadsheet or text file.
The connection string may include attributes such as the name of the driver, server and database, as well as security information such as user name and password.(source ...

I recently had a need to create an MSBuild file for a complex (multi-project) solution in VS2010. By default .sln files are not in msbuild format, but they can be called from MSBuild - while I could have done this, I didn't want to - I wanted a proper MSBuild solution. Fortunately, there is a way to convert the .sln file into an MSBuild .proj file....

At times I need to look into a processing step of a pipeline, either to identify a performance improvement or as part of impact analysis. If the step is covered by a unit test, then it is a bit easier to analyze, but alas this is not always the case.

In such a case, a general approach is to isolate a buffer of data being processed and extract it to a data file. Then the data can be analyzed separately or the data can be used to create a unit test. In the latter case, the unit test can be ...
