RadVC

Just checking out the ads on CP today, I noticed one for a product called RadVC. As an old VB programmer who converted to MFC, this product sparked my interest. Does anyone have any experience with this product? Thanks! Frank "640k ought to be enough for anybody." Bill Gates, Chairman of the Board, and CEO, Microsoft Corporation, 1981

Wow! That's pretty cool. I wish I could tell you something about it, but I looked at it online and it certainly looks cool. Have you tried Visual Studio.Net Beta? Very similar. Microsoft did away with the Class Wizard now that I've finally mastered it and went with a very similar approach.:cool:

I guess you are talking about Visual C#. AFAIK, VS.NET doesn't have any RAD front end for Visual C++ (MFC/ATL). Correct me if I'm wrong.
Sorry, you are. The class wizard has been replaced with VB style property sheets. I only vaguely remember hating them when I tried .Net beta 1, but the class wizard ( which is what the original poster was talking about ) is gone.

Well, the only change I can see in VC7 (VS.NET) is the rearrangement of VC6 tool windows around the IDE, so that the new IDE looks more like a VB IDE (you need to select VB Window layout for this). It gives you the look, but not the feel of a true RAD development, since the development process remains the same as in VC6. You may want to look at Borland C++ Builder IDE to understand what I mean..

JD you're right. There is no RAD designer for MFC/ATL. The Wizard/Resource Editor combination of tools is quite similar to V6. The Class Wizard has been ripped apart into various locations around the IDE. Some people like it, some people hate it. I did try an early beta of RadVC and it was quite interesting. It gives you a very VB like design time experience for MFC. I didn't do much more than play around with it so couldn't comment on its strengths or limitations in a production development environment.
