MFC 9.0 has support for the automaticall and manual hiding of menus. To enable that, SetMenuBarVisibility must be called. This method of class CFrameWnd requires AFX_MBV_DISPLAYONFOCUS to be passed in order to hide the menu automatically and show it only when pressing the ALT key. However, ...

I have a look at the Whitepaper for Orcas, and there is little about C++ in Orcas (except the support for Vista-like appearance in MFC). So are there any changes in the language level for the C++ in Orcas (like some improvements to the conformability to the C++ Standard) ?
I've seen some posts to the fact that TR1 is not included in VC 2005. Is there a release where TR1 will be included (Orcas?, VC 2005 SP1?)At the moment, one has to shell around $200 USD to get it from Dinkumware, or wait for the next release of Boost (1.34) to get an incomplete (but ...

The C# XML Documentation in VS2003/2005 is very nice. It would be nice if ORCAS had inline XML Documentation functionality in native C++ projects (similar to C#). I really don't want to have to use Doxygen to get this functionality. It would be nice if the IDE just supported XML docs out of ...

Several times, I've had the devenv.exe file mysteriously terminate.One thing that may cause it is compiling in debug mode, editing the code while debugging, finishing debugging, and then changing the mode back to release. I'm not 100% certain that this causes the problem, but I wonder if the ...

I have always found the specification of WINVER, _WIN32_WINNT and WIN32_WINDOWS massively confusing, but with Orcas only Windows 2000 and above are supported, so shouldn't WINVER and _WIN32_WINNT always be equal? Shouldn't this be enforced? In an MFC project (the only kind I use) this could ...

With all the recent press and excitement surrounding Silverlight there has been a noticeable lack of metion of the C++/CLI story. It appears like the lack of tools support for WPF/BAML in Orcas, that C++/CLI is not going to be a tenable language in the .NET universe. I believe that C++ team at ...
