| MICROSOFT FOUNDATION CLASS LIBRARY : mfc1 Project Overview |
| =============================================================================== |
| |
| The application wizard has created this mfc1 application for |
| you. This application not only demonstrates the basics of using the Microsoft |
| Foundation Classes but is also a starting point for writing your application. |
| |
| This file contains a summary of what you will find in each of the files that |
| make up your mfc1 application. |
| |
| mfc1.vcproj |
| This is the main project file for VC++ projects generated using an application wizard. |
| It contains information about the version of Visual C++ that generated the file, and |
| information about the platforms, configurations, and project features selected with the |
| application wizard. |
| |
| mfc1.h |
| This is the main header file for the application. It includes other |
| project specific headers (including Resource.h) and declares the |
| Cmfc1App application class. |
| |
| mfc1.cpp |
| This is the main application source file that contains the application |
| class Cmfc1App. |
| |
| mfc1.rc |
| This is a listing of all of the Microsoft Windows resources that the |
| program uses. It includes the icons, bitmaps, and cursors that are stored |
| in the RES subdirectory. This file can be directly edited in Microsoft |
| Visual C++. Your project resources are in 1033. |
| |
| res\mfc1.ico |
| This is an icon file, which is used as the application's icon. This |
| icon is included by the main resource file mfc1.rc. |
| |
| res\mfc1.rc2 |
| This file contains resources that are not edited by Microsoft |
| Visual C++. You should place all resources not editable by |
| the resource editor in this file. |
| mfc1.reg |
| This is an example .reg file that shows you the kind of registration |
| settings the framework will set for you. You can use this as a .reg |
| file to go along with your application or just delete it and rely |
| on the default RegisterShellFileTypes registration. |

| |
| For the main frame window: |
| The project includes a standard MFC interface. |
| MainFrm.h, MainFrm.cpp |
| These files contain the frame class CMainFrame, which is derived from |
| CMDIFrameWnd and controls all MDI frame features. |
| res\Toolbar.bmp |
| This bitmap file is used to create tiled images for the toolbar. |
| The initial toolbar and status bar are constructed in the CMainFrame |
| class. Edit this toolbar bitmap using the resource editor, and |
| update the IDR_MAINFRAME TOOLBAR array in mfc1.rc to add |
| toolbar buttons. |
| ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// |
| |
| For the child frame window: |
| |
| ChildFrm.h, ChildFrm.cpp |
| These files define and implement the CChildFrame class, which |
| supports the child windows in an MDI application. |
| |
| ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// |
| |
| The application wizard creates one document type and one view: |
| |
| mfc1Doc.h, mfc1Doc.cpp - the document |
| These files contain your Cmfc1Doc class. Edit these files to |
| add your special document data and to implement file saving and loading |
| (via Cmfc1Doc::Serialize). |
| The Document will have the following strings: |
| File extension: mf1 |
| File type ID: mfc1.Document |
| Main frame caption: mfc1 |
| Doc type name: mfc1 |
| Filter name: mfc1 Files (*.mf1) |
| File new short name: mfc1 |
| File type long name: mfc1.Document |
| mfc1View.h, mfc1View.cpp - the view of the document |
| These files contain your Cmfc1View class. |
| Cmfc1View objects are used to view Cmfc1Doc objects. |
| res\mfc1Doc.ico |
| This is an icon file, which is used as the icon for MDI child windows |
| for the Cmfc1Doc class. This icon is included by the main |
| resource file mfc1.rc. |
| ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// |
| |
| Other Features: |
| |
| ActiveX Controls |
| The application includes support to use ActiveX controls. |
| |
| Printing and Print Preview support |
| The application wizard has generated code to handle the print, print setup, and print preview |
| commands by calling member functions in the CView class from the MFC library. |
| ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// |
| |
| Other standard files: |
| |
| StdAfx.h, StdAfx.cpp |
| These files are used to build a precompiled header (PCH) file |
| named mfc1.pch and a precompiled types file named StdAfx.obj. |
| |
| Resource.h |
| This is the standard header file, which defines new resource IDs. |
| Microsoft Visual C++ reads and updates this file. |
| |
| mfc1.manifest |
| Application manifest files are used by Windows XP to describe an applications |
| dependency on specific versions of Side-by-Side assemblies. The loader uses this |
| information to load the appropriate assembly from the assembly cache or private |
| from the application. The Application manifest maybe included for redistribution |
| as an external .manifest file that is installed in the same folder as the application |
| executable or it may be included in the executable in the form of a resource. |

| |
| Other notes: |
| |
| The application wizard uses "TODO:" to indicate parts of the source code you |
| should add to or customize. |
| |
| If your application uses MFC in a shared DLL, and your application is in a |
| language other than the operating system's current language, you will need |
| to copy the corresponding localized resources MFC70XXX.DLL from the Microsoft |
| Visual C++ CD-ROM under the Win\System directory to your computer's system or |
| system32 directory, and rename it to be MFCLOC.DLL. ("XXX" stands for the |
| language abbreviation. For example, MFC70DEU.DLL contains resources |
| translated to German.) If you don't do this, some of the UI elements of |
| your application will remain in the language of the operating system. |
