Here is list of IDE's to be used for ProToolkit version.
WF 3.0 - VS 2003
WF 4.0 - VS 2005
WF 5.0 - VS 2008.

Settings to be done can be found @ http://www.purplerose.biz/Vin/new_page_2.htm

You can add then MFC related namespaces and classes with the help of - #using directive.
HTH
Happy Development..

Why don't you use the standard Pro/TOOLKIT functionalities for creation of a GUI??

 

[nandini lokesh]

Hi DonChunior,


I can use Resource files. But Using MFC it will be more good. so trying do in MFC.

 

[forstudy3]

Suggestion give by DonChunior is also correct and valid.It will save much of your efforts of code maintaining the code.

If you still want to stick with MFC then above linking errors should be resolved..
These are caused due to wrong selection of libs and code generation flag.
PTC does not supports /MT flag projects so required libraries are also not available.Change it to /Md and then specific libs like protkmd.lib....
ALso add #define _AFXDLL.

I had got it working at my end using the settings given by PTC , just requires changes I mentioned above.

[forstudy3]

I had followed same settings as given in PTC
link.Following are the changes I did to my project configuration to resolve the linking errors.

PreprocessorDef - PRO_USE_VAR_ARGS PRO_USE_VAR_ARG _AFXDLL

Set code generation flag as - /MDd
Add libs in linker -
ptasyncmd.lib
protkmd.lib
rodevmd.lib
psapi.lib
netapi32.lib
wsock32.lib
mpr.lib

Ignore Specific Lib-
libcmt.lib

Thanks

Hi Nandini,

You may use Visual Basic for Graphical User Interface and transfer data to Pro/TOOLKIT dll file. This will reduce project efforts, risks, cost, bugs and many other issues.

Happy coding !
