    Using multiple C++ libraries in a project

    If you want to link in the libraries, you are stuck with the class and method names as defined in the header files that were delivered with the libraries. However, if you want to have your code look like it was ALL developed in the same shop, two possible solutions come to mind. 1) Create...

    How to remotely debug COM object

    I have a COM .dll that I would like to debug. It was compiled under a debug configuration and runs on a remote computer. The program that instantiates the object runs as a service on the same computer. When I tried to perform this on a local computer, I configured the package to "Launch...

    Automatic restting of login passwords

    This has happened twice (so far!). In Windows ME, I set up user logins for all users in my household. I left each person's password empty (except mine, since I'm the "administrator"). One day, no one could log in, since the system was asking for a password, where previously it had...
