This article presents steps required to migrate Windows service applications (also called NT services) written using Visual C++ 6.0 and ATL to Visual C++.NET. Most of ATL and MFC code requires only recompilation when upgrading Visual Studio from version 6.0 to .NET. Unfortunately, this is not the case with ATL service applications. Part of ATL7 that handles Windows services has been rewritten, so most of the code that ATL Wizard generated in Visual C++ 6.0 is no longer needed ? actually, the cod... |

The purpose of this library is to provide object properties. Instead of coding setter and getter methods, it is better to use properties because it is a more intuitive interface. Unfortunately, C++ does not offer native properties, but they can be emulated using templates and operator overloading, with a small memory overhead.... |

If you think the built-in Reflection API in the .NET framework is too verbose for many circumstances and has poor performance, you are not alone. I think that too. And yet, being able to write reflective code is an inevitable (technical) requirement in most of the applications I develop. This is why I have built Fasterflect (read either "Faster-flect" or "Fast-reflect") as an alternative API to the .NET Reflection functionality.... |

STL (Standard Template Library) is a good skill for anyone programming C++ in the modern day. I must say that it takes some getting used to, i.e. there is a fairly steep learning curve, and some of the names that are used are not very intuitive (perhaps because all of the good names had been used up). The upside is once learned they will save you headaches down the road. Compared to MFC containers, they are more flexible and powerful.... |

Microsoft Visual C++ NET (2002) supported both the managed code model that is provided by the .NET Framework and the unmanaged native Windows code model. The information in this article applies to unmanaged Visual C++ code only.... |

The following article will go over the steps to build a basic DWinLib program from the files in the above zip file. The first part will include some basic Visual C++ Express 2005 (VCE) setup steps that make creating pure Win32 API programs easier, and may be helpful even to people not interested in using DWinLib.... |

There are a number of config options for the TFS Event Handler Prototype. I will describe all of them in depth here. The first step is to set the Windows Communication Foundation service options, which really only requires you to change one value.... |

EfAesLib is a highly optimized Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) library for the Windows platform 32-bit architecture. The Extreme Fast AES Library is implemented based on the official document: http://www.csrc.nist.gov/publications/fips/fips197/fips-197.pdf.
The library is actually my personal work. I have decided to put it in the public domain and make it free. The size is a little on the higher side because of some optimization to use space in exchange of time.... |

The Firecracker(C) is a product by X10 industries. It is a matchbox sized unit that plugs into a serial port and transmits commands wirelessly one-way to a receiving unit that's plugged into an AC outlet, which then sends the same signal through the home's AC wiring to all other x10 control modules. There are several types of modules, the two main ones being a light controller and an appliance controller. This system can accommodate 16 house codes, with 16 controllers in each house code, for a t... |

Windows programming can be a very tedious task even for experienced programmers. Numerous API functions and windows messages, Component Object Model and other things on one hand make applications very powerful, on the other hand it can be very discouraging since even for a simple application one has to invest a lot of time and effort to build it. The latter is especially true for people in computer related sciences like bioinformatics when the scientist is primary concentrated on its scientific ... |

DTX is a set of classes for editing and automatic read, write and display of datatabase fields. DTX provides automatic read and write of Blob variables (for example. Read and write DBImage). It's very easy to use. Version 1.8 is only for use with MS Access Databases, but is not designed only for Access tables. It includes 70+ ready to use classes.... |

Recently, I've been involved in integrating software into a third party's application. In order to integrate into their system, I had to create multiple XML files per Entity object.
Trying to do this by hand would be a very time consuming and futile exercise, given the number of Entity objects available. There must be a better way...... |

Remote SOF (Remote Service Oriented Framework) represents an extension of SOF (Service Oriented Framework). Before reading this article, I recommend to read the article about SOF here, or the documentation at the website which describes the basic mechanisms of the SOF framework. Remote SOF supports, like SOF, the modularization of software by dividing the code into several components (called 'bundles') which are able to communicate via clearly defined interfaces (called 'services'). Using SOF, ... |

This article is intended to give a brief and simple introduction to compiling your own libraries with MinGW (Minimal GNU for Windows) compiler. This article assumes you have a basic understanding of the C language. First thing you'll need to do is download MinGW. I strongly suggest that you set the windows environmental path to the MinGW directory. This allows you to call the MinGW GCC compiler from any directory on your computer. On Windows7 it is right click on My Computer->Properties->Advance... |

I made this project with a single goal in mind; to create a reusable Managed DirectX class library that can be used as a foundation for basic 2D games. I hope that I have succeeded. As a fellow game hobbyist, I present the GameUtil class library to you, so you too can benefit from its code. You can use it in any way you so desire; start your own 2D game, extend and/or alter the code for your own needs, or just browse the source code for learning purposes.... |

Till now we haven't discuss anything about assembly language. But we can't avoid it so long if we really want to know what is going on under the hood of ATL. Because ATL use some low level technique as well as some inline assembly language to make it as small and as fast as possible. I assume that reader already have basic knowledge of assembly language so I will only concentrate on my topic and not try to write another tutorial of assembly language. If you don't know enough assembly language th... |

Windows is really fun, mostly. But one of the things I miss about UNIX (or the IBM 1401) is the handy way it writes to a line printer. No sissy graphics, no obsequious "Page n of m" ( unless you want to write a lot of extra code), just thousands of sturdy fixed width lines of ASCII characters. Gayle Manufacturing Company (The GM in all the names and labels below) is the steel fabricating company I work for. Most of the routine reports we generate are in line printer format, nothing fancy - just ... |

I've noticed a number of solutions for displaying alternating rows in different colours for ListViews (LVS_REPORT), each with varying levels of success. Most seem to reply on a particular compiler (Visual C++, C#, etc.). Here is a simple solution which uses only Windows API calls so it can be easily converted for use by a variety of compilers and languages.... |

When you write managed C++, you have access to all of the managed code libraries that come with the .NET Framework: the Base Class Libraries, ADO.NET, ASP.NET, and so on. These libraries are modern and powerful. They provide services, such as XML processing, that weren't even thought of when older libraries such as MFC and ATL were first written. In sharp contrast to the historical capabilities of C++ and Visual Basic, on the .NET Framework these two languages share the same class libraries. Eve... |

The Managed Extensions for C++ make it possible to mix native and managed code freely, even in the same module. Wow, life is good! Compiling with /clr, however, has consequences you may not want. It forces multithreading and dispenses with some useful runtime checks. It interferes with MFC's DEBUG_NEW, and some .NET Framework classes may conflict with your namespace. And what if you have a legacy application that uses an older version of the compiler that doesn't support /clr? Isn't there some w... |
