Hi,
I have a few years of experience using MFC and Microsoft Visual C++
6.0. As my company gets further into the software business they now
want to start moving away from MFC, and use pure Standard C++. I have a
code project created in Microsoft Visual C++ that needs MFC stripped out
of it. Not a huge project - only about 10 or so files.
I've been reading a bit about Standard C++, and I was wondering if
anyone could point me to some documents or help as to how to start using
Standard C++ from within Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0. For starters, I
realize all my "CStrings" will have to become
"string" File by file I will have to remove CStrings, makes sense.
I understand about using the #include <xyz>. And I see that I will have
to use: "using namespace std" But I am not sure what else I have to set
up in the Microsoft Developer Studio. Perhaps I have to start a new
project/workspace that is just a W32 Application? What do I need to
link to in the Project Settings > Link tab? What else do I need to do
to so that it recognizes the namespace "std" ?
I realize this is probably a very basic question, but I am confused as
to where to start. Anything to get me started will help.
Thanks,
Bill
