Heh. For much the same reason I took two terms of Italian at the local community college before vacationing in Rome last year. I must have looked too obviously American, however, because most didn't even give me time to stumble through a greeting in Italian before launching into English themselves. (Either that or they just pointed at various things figuring, being a big dumb American tourist, the best I'd be able to do was grunt and nod when they eventually pointed at whatever I wanted. ;P) Playing the big dumb American tourist did come in handy once, though, when we were riding the public trolleys and the ticket police descended on the car just as the doors closed. My brother and I apparently hadn't bought the right kind of tickets. One police officer tried to explain that fact to us in Italian and by gesturing wildly, but after only getting blank stares back from either of us, he finally gave up and let us continue on our way. -Jag Jag T.

I have no idea if this would work, but possibly the Image abstract class has its default constructor as private and that is what you are calling, so it may require that you use one of its defined constructors, and I noticed the Bitmap class does not use a default contructor either. I think this would work... if it doesn't, then i have no idea. notice this line: public EnhancedImage(string imageFilename) : base( imageFileName ) using System; using System.Drawing; namespace WindowsApplication1 { /// /// Summary description for EnhancedImage. /// public class EnhancedImage : Image { public EnhancedImage(string imageFilename) : base( imageFileName ) { FromFile(imageFilename); } } }

The movie sucked! Period. :) The story, everything. But that might be because I never liked the comic version of the Dare Devil either. :rolleyes: As for the music, Evenescence is.. erhm. perfect for the movie. :) :getting-really-wound-up-and-bitchy-emoticon: :-D -- I was quite impressed until I hit the floor Isn't that what friends are for?

No, thats not name mangling for C-style __stdcall calling convention, but is the name mangling of the C++ compiler (so called "decorated names"). The reason for this is that C++ supports overloading, but at link time every function identifier needs to be unique. So the C+++ compiler codes the numer and types of the functions arguments into the name and links against this name. The @0 in you case indicates a function without arguments. Note that decorated names are always used if the functions are exported with __declspec(dllexport). If possible you should link against the .lib file and so implictly load your DLL. You may also use the VC6 and above delay load feature. -- Daniel Lohmann http://www.losoft.de

I had a second coding job very briefly, but poor communication and a very hectic schedule pretty much killed that. I hated the sort of work anyhow, it was all GUI stuff. They never even released the code I wrote, as far as I can tell. I write magazine articles at home, which is probably too sporadic to be a second job, but it pays pretty well all the same, when the US/AU$ conversion does it's magic.

InstallShield installing device drivers? Good luck! We have to do what you are trying to do - call a custom DLL from within InstallShield. We're going to a full custom installer becuase of this (and other issues.) I know it is possible to run an executable or call a DLL from inside InstallShield - try going to the InstallShield website and searching their newsgroups. You may want to write a DLL and launch your EXE from there. No generalization is 100% true. Not even this one.
