What's New in the MFC FAQ?

Ok - enough rambling it's time for the moment you have all been waiting for - new MFC FAQ material! This version of MFC FAQ is only being distributed as an HTML file right here at this location. If you are not reading this at http://www.stingray.com/mfc_faq, then it is probably an old version so you should click on that link and go the site to see if it has been updated.  If you would like to get a free subscription to the MFC FAQ, which is sent via e-mail as HTMLHelp, then click here.

One of the cool things about the MFC FAQ is that many of the FAQs have been answered by members of the MFC team or someone here at Stingray so you can be pretty sure they are going to be helpful.

Disclaimer: One of the things we do at Stingray for product ideas, especially our Objective Toolkit product, is monitor the newsgroups and implement the most commonly asked for features that are not in MFC. For example, how to implement docking windows such as those found in Visual Studio is commonly asked. So the answer to this FAQ is that Stingray's Objective Toolkit does this, but it is not trivial to do with raw MFC. It is not the intention that the MFC FAQ be a total product plug, but to be honest if that's the answer, that's what is going to end up in here. If this bothers you, press "back" now.

To find out what's new in a current release of the MFC FAQ look for these keywords throughout our site:
