Hi Guys,
there is this home grown class sitting on my hard drive. The result of the last 3 years...
Features:
It supports easier access to ComPorts, certain kind of HID devices (HIDPOS, IBM-SurePos, Cypress-HidCom).
It is extensible for new devices (raw USB bulk?).
The differences of the ports are hidden from the user.
Enumerates all these devices for the UI.
Supports PnP.
....
Almost no documentation 
I started to prepare to publish, but did run in problems. It is just to closly coupled to UI and MFC (contains a few dialogs, references to resource strings, ..).
What do you think, shall I remove all UI stuff to get a small comm lib?
Who wants to test it / contribute?

I think, in general, you can make an article describing how to do what you did and post the code as an example of the implementation. (even with mfc dialogs and rest, just should be compilable).
I admire the amount of work being probably behind your code. Therefore if I could recommend you something, focus on writing a documentation and let the sources as they are. I think even than your article will be valuable source of information.
The idea behind is, that if anyone is interested, he can learn how to do it and then either reuse parts of your code, or if he wants he can write it at his own, but in any case it will save him a lot of time, because he will have the documentation (and possible related links) at one place (and the sources are some kind of bonus). I think, that you will agree with me, that just put together all links and materials to the subjects you implemented is a huge task.
I personally prefer articles with well described idea, how to achieve something (as I am being dumb sometimes, I need quite detailed description ). Then some source code with some sort of implementation is a Good Thing(TM).

Lol, you're in for it now. 
Just drop a short note over to the admins (use the Forum problems or suggestions? link at the top of the page) and point this out, they'll clean it up when they get a chance.

hello,
I am trying to compile a source code written in MFC(Microsoft Foundation Class) language.
I am continuesly facing an error called C2664:
cannot convert parameter 1 from 'class CRobot' to 'class CRobot *'
It says also : No user-defined-conversion operator available that can perform this conversion, or the operator cannot be called.
I tryed to overload both "constructor" and "=". But it doesn´t help.
I think it is simple compiler error but I´m not able to solve it.
If you need to see the code please let me know and I´ll send it to you.
(nounouladanoise@yahoo.fr)
Thanx a lot.

The compiler is telling you it needs a pointer to an object, not an actual object. Try calling the fucntion like this:
CRobot robot;
...
SomeFunction(&robot);

Actually, I need help.
I need a logo for one of my apps. But not being skilled in the graphics or aesthetics department, I am stumped here. Will any one please make it for me? I will give a free copy of my app to you when it comes out, even if you don't need the app.  I think it's going to be within a month or so.
If anyone would like to help me out, you can send an email to rohit at daritesite.com. Or reply to this post and I shall send an email to you with all the details about the app and my requirements.
Thanks.
Regards,
Rohit Sinha

Not to sound like a pest, but I still haven't got a reply to the mail I sent you so I have no way of knowing if you got it. Did you? If you don't have the time to do it or can't do it for any other reason, it's perfectly OK, but just let me know.
And I don't know who voted your post a 1 and why, but the fact that it's still 2.3 after I voted it 5 to bring the rating back up shows that it was a platinum member (I am gold). Now there are not too many platinum members on this site. And this also shows that even platinum members don't know how to vote.

Hi Rohit. This is my first post on this site. Do you still need help with a logo? I'm sorry that this didn't come earlier when you originally asked for help. I'm not a professional graphic artist, but I do have artistic ability, good computer skills and tools, and a desire to help out (I feel what goes around, comes around). If you still need assistance, I can probably help you.
One day I will fill this space with a witty signature.

But I've got it done by a professional graphics designer now. But thanks again.
