VC++ New DLL project humor
I started a little C++ Dll test project this morning and a good start for that is to fire up VS.NET 2003, create a new Win32 project and specify that it is a DLL.
VS.NET creates an initial .cpp file for you with some plumbing code. Here's the code it generated, no editing has been done on my part:// TestLibrary.cpp : Defines the entry point for the DLL application. // #include "stdafx.h" #include "TestLibrary.h" BOOL APIENTRY DllMain( HANDLE hModule, DWORD ul_reason_for_call, LPVOID lpReserved) { switch (ul_reason_for_call) { case DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH: case DLL_THREAD_ATTACH: case DLL_THREAD_DETACH: case DLL_PROCESS_DETACH: break; } return TRUE; } // This is an example of an exported variable TESTLIBRARY_API int nTestLibrary=0; // This is an example of an exported function. TESTLIBRARY_API int fnTestLibrary(void) { return 42; } // This is the constructor of a class that has been exported. // see TestLibrary.h for the class definition CTestLibrary::CTestLibrary() { return; }Now, take a good look at function 'fnTestLibrary'.. It's always good to see there are still developers with a good sense of humor around

.NET Tool/Control vendors/creators: new directory site: www.developerfood.com!
A good friend of mine, Scott Wallace, has created a new .NET tool/control directory site: http://www.developerfood.com! If you are a tool / control vendor or a freeware/open source tool/control programmer, feel free to add your tool/control to the directory. The site is free, doesn't sell the controls / tools it lists nor is it affiliated with a tool/control vendor.
