By default Visual Studio 2008 generates UNICODE builds, but you can disable it:
Select Project Properties menu item then (in the appeared window), select Configuration Properties->General node and change the Character Set option.

Your impression is right.
All the 'old' functions have an A at the end (ANSI char).
All the 'new' functions have a W at the end (wide char).
e.g. MessageBoxA() (defined in winuser.h)
...cmk
The idea that I can be presented with a problem, set out to logically solve it with the tools at hand, and wind up with a program that could not be legally used because someone else followed the same logical steps some years ago and filed for a patent on it is horrifying.

I would like to remote debug a dll that I made as a plig-in of a 3rd party application. I have set up the VS2005 debugger so that I can see processes from the remote computer, but I only see .exe, and not my dll. And choosing the exe that uses my dll does not help.
Any idea ?

For filling the tree control it doesn't matter how it is hosted in the application because a tree control is a tree control, period. The same is true for ListViews and yes I don't remember there being a shortage of ListView and TreeView samples and articles on the internet. Mainly here on CodeProject and on MSDN.

What? There are loads of them both here in CodeProject Articles and on MSDN.
For the articles on CodeProject in the left column under "Chapters" click "Desktop Development". In that list you will see both List Controls and Tree Controls.

FWIW - when the new MFC classes are released in the next month or two,
there's new controls for both the tree and the list in the shell (Windows)
explorer.
You can roll your own, of course

How do you use it (i.e. post the relevant code.)?

hi
I want to connect to MySQL database when i click a button in MFC dialog based application.
1)I searched web (including CP) but i didn't find exact info since there seems to be various methods to connect including DSN less (using MySQL++)
2)I have downloaded MySQL database & ODBC connector but i am not able to connect to it even while creating DSN(From Control Panel).
3)I am able to create tables etc on MySQL command line but not able to establish link between database & VC++ App.
Can anyone point me to a simple article which explains connecting to MySQl and inserting a record into it(with DSN or without DSN)
thanx in advance

MySql installation will provide you with soem documentation for api's to be used for all operations with MySql Database.
Some of them are
void *mydata;
mysql_init((MYSQL*) 0);
mysql_real_connect((MYSQL*) myData,dbHost,dbUID,dbPWD, NULL, MYSQL_PORT, NULL,0);
mysql_select_db( (MYSQL*)myData,"MYSQL");
mysql_query((MYSQL*)myData, "select * from mysql.host");

So what are you having trouble with: 1) connecting to the data source, or 2) responding to a button click?

One way is to create a CRecordset-derived object. ClassWizard (Ctrl+W) will ask you what DSN to use.

This type of construction so that a function with an indefinitely long parameter list can pass those parameterson to another function:
/*-----*/
void diprintf(HWND db,short c,char*fmt,...){char C[256];
vsprintf(C,fmt,(&fmt)+1);
SetDlgItemText(db,c,C);};
/*-----*/
short discanf(HWND db,short c,char*fmt,...){char C[256];
GetDlgItemText(db,c,C,256);
C[255]=0; return vsscanf(C,fmt,(&fmt)+1);}
/*-----*/
worked fine for me under Gnu C++ and Borland 4.5 C++, but my (free version) Visual C++ 2008 refused it with these error messages:
1>c:\2d\ppp_vc\ppp_vc\ppp.cpp(274) : error C2664: 'vsprintf' : cannot convert parameter 3 from 'char **' to 'va_list'
1>c:\2d\ppp_vc\ppp_vc\ppp.cpp(277) : error C3861: 'vsscanf': identifier not found
(plus the expected complaints about having char* instead of WCHAR* .)
I cannot find the info that I need in the online help.
Please what should these two funtions be corrected to for my Visual C++ 2008?
