This code works in vc++6; how to make it work in msvc2005?

[tonyjeffs]

This code to create an empty window is from a web tutorial that goes
into interesting detail on message maps.
It is written for msvc6.
I have a stupid way to make it work in 2005; install a different
outdated program and let msvc update it, then substitute the code from
this exercise.

But what is the proper way to make it work?

/*Error: fatal error C1189: #error : Building MFC application with /
MD[d] (CRT dll version) requires MFC shared dll version. Please
#define _AFXDLL or do not use /MD[d]
....What does this mean and why is it not an issue in the version that
works... (same code)?*/

thanks
Tony

I think I can solve this.
Need to incorporate a dll ....

The issue looks like project settings, not the code.

Set

Project Settings/General/Use of MFC to "Use MFC in a shared DLL"

and

Project Settings/C/C++/Code Generation/Runtime Library to "Multi-threaded
Debug DLL (/MDd)"

and it should build fine.

Hi Mark.

I knew that yesterday! I just needed to take a break.
Understandably, it works with use of MFC in static library too.

Thanks
