Suggestion 1.
1> Use ATL instead of MFC and don't link to libraries you don't really need.
Suggestion 2.
1) Dynamically link your program with the MFC library. This will give you a minimum reduce of at least 2031%.
2) Go to Project Settings dialog.
3) Click the 'C/C++' tab.
4) In the 'Optimizations' combo box, choose 'Minimize size'. Click OK to close this dialog. The file size is decreased now
5) Build and compile your executable.
Now check the file size.
Suggestion 3.
Download and use some tool to decrease the size of your exe.
You need to google first, if you have "It's urgent please" mentioned in your question.

IF you are using VS 2005, then go to Project>Properties. Under this go to Configuration properties>General option. Under "project defaults" change to "Use MFC in a Shared DLL"

Have you embedded lot of bitmaps in your application??

This is one of the reasons of bigger executable size. I don't think you can do anything about it. You can try reducing the size as mentioned in other replies. Also try to remove incremental link option.
Check following links for more options

I hope it helps.

Are you using Release setting to build? Or Debug?
Do you have any images (BMPs) added to the resource?

If possible, it is better to keep the images separately (as image files along the exe) and load them when required at runtime.

Use LoadImage() instead of LoadBitmap().

I want to Bring a window to top. I am using BringWindowToTop() function. But its not working.How can i do it.
|
|
|
|
|
I have no idea what you mean by "it is not working". Did you check the return value of the function? The documentation says that if the function returns zero, you can check why the function failed by calling GetLastError()[^].
You could try SetForegroundWindow()[^] as well.

Please refer SetWindowPos with parameter HWND_TOPMOST. Is this helpful ?

It was in Visual Studio 2003 - that was the last visual studio where I used MS-RPC.
Looking at the Platform SDK that's installed with Visual Studio 2008 (its default install location in in c:\program files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\), it's still rpcrt4.lib.

I am writing a simple (well, not for me =) ) C++ program that consist of using loops to make a game of paper, rock, and scissors for two players.
My question is:
How do I set up the game for two players? Do I use a char player1 char player2 style of syntax formatting? I just need something to start with here. I understand the loops and the game. I just do not know how to set two seperate players that with be making cin>> inputs.
Thanks!

You can have your program ask whose turn, as:
C:\game.exe
Game starts!
Player-A: format = (value, x, y) <-- playser A's turn to input
3, 1, 1
Status:
3 0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
Player-B: format = (value, x, y) <-- player B's turn to input
5, 3, 1
Status:
3 0 5
0 0 0
0 0 0

Hello,
i want to embed a dialog in an SDI Window. I created a new SDI project
without Doc/View architecure. Then created a new dialog, disabled the border,
system menue etc.. Now, in the designer the dialog looks like en empty gray plane.
I also added a class to this dialog derived from CDialog. I did this with the designers help,
right click on the dialog and "add class".
My goal is to embed this dialog in the ChildView window and make it as large as the ChildView
window. I found an example here on code project thats similiar to my problem but anyway it
doesn't meet my requirements.
So, how can I embed this dialog in the SDI application?
best regards,
cmos

First:

// We let the base create it for us. This will automatically call the
// OnMDINCCreate() overidable in which we do our thing...
