You can find an article on the IBM website which explains porting an application from MFC to wxWindows: http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-mfc/[^]

Hey, you know Grimbergen. Where did you find that?

You can virtually taste it here: http://www.duvel.be[^] Be warned: it's a lot stronger than Heineken.

Compared to Duvel, Heineken is a lemonade.

The best: Almost every Belgian beer like Duvel, Westmalle, Orval, Hoegaarden, ...;P;P;P The worst: Dutch beer like Heineken. X| Franky.

Well wx.NET already exists: http://www.379.com/wxnet/[^]

I'm using wxWindows for about 2 years now. I choosed wxWindows for several reasons:* open-source: you can solve bugs and become part of the wxWindows community. wxWindows is heavily developed.

• MFC-alike: when you know MFC, using wxWindows is easy.
• It has a lot more than just GUI-classes: ftp, file handling, threads, html, ... and all of them are platform indepedent.
• You can use it with any compiler.
• It's free for personal and commercial use.
• Whenever possible wxWindows uses the platform SDK, which means that wxWindows applications have the look and feel of the platform.
• Many ports are written: wxPython, wxBasic, wxPerl, wxJS (javascript). You can use the wxWindows classes in your favorite script-language.

I'm currently developing a PHP guestbook for the website of the school of one of my kids. I know codeproject has some cool smileys. So I was thinking: can I use those smileys for my guestbook or are they copywrighted by someone?

Consider using wxWindows. wxWindows is a portable C++ GUI framework which you can use on Windows, Linux, Mac, ... You can develop your program in Visual Studio and port the code to another platform, build it and run it. wxWindows classes are similar to MFC classes, so it's easy to get started.

Currently driving with a Opel Astra Break 17DTI. Bought it last year and I'm very happy with it. Our second car is a Opel Kadett 1.6 Diesel with almost 300.000km on it.

I like it also, but there's one problem. When you need to scroll down in the menu, you have to leave the menu, and use the scrollbar of the browser. The problem is that you can't see how far you need to scroll, because the menu is disappeared. I don't know how you can solve that.

I know the MFC Zip/Unzip because I developed an ATL-based version from it : SAWZip. Do you know how to program a DevStudio Add-in?

Hi all, I have a weird problem. When I debug my application in Visual Studio the first time, everything works fine. When I press F5 again my application has an access violation when I move the mouse over the commandbar. Sometimes after stopping the debug, the visual studio crashes also. I use Visual Studio 6, WTL 3.1 and running on Windows98. Franky

Is there a tool or a macro that helps in creating a zipfile of your sourcecode. Often when I post a project to codeproject, there's always a file(s) missing I didn't think of. It would be easy when you create such a zipfile from within Visual Studio.

Hi all, I'm wondering if some of you used V, wxWindows (or another GUI framework). They claim to be portable to other platforms. Do you have experience with these frameworks ? What's your opinion about them ? Are there other and better frameworks ? Franky.

Have you heard about JHotDraw ? It's a drawing framework written in Java. It's free and you can read an article about it at : http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-02-2001/jw-0216-jhotdraw.html Maybe it's possible to convert this to C++ ???

RTF has codes for drawing a line, but the RichEditCtrl in MFC doesn't support this. Does anyone know of a control that supports this ? Or has anyone an example on how to do this with the MFC-control ?
