Visual C++ 10 和 MFC 10的新特性
- 11 October 2008
Boris Jabes 和Damien Watkins将会在PDC上演示Visual C++10中的新功能。IDE的新功能包括基于SQL Compact的智能提示、 支持自定义插件的新的项目和编译系统、面向大型应用的优化和改善的调试体验。MFC库增加了对Windows 7 中新增的多点触摸检测功能和高DPI支持，以及Windows Vista中集成的功能，例如高彩图标 、 Windows 搜索和重启管理器。Visual C++程序员们才习惯不用MFC来直接调API。
MFC是很老了，不容易学，也不优雅，但是很稳定，也有很多第三方扩展和示例支持。其他的用户界面库还有很多，但是单单用户界面并不能完成一个程序。在调用操作系统的底层功能的时候，有一个面向对象的接口还是很方便的。

In Visual C# 2005 SP1, I added an object data source to a web page that uses my business class as the select method. The method has one parameter of type Guid. The data source wizard generates code like this
<asp:Parameter DbType=”Guid” Name=”rowId” />

MFC Feature Pack发布
- 07 April 2008
Visual C++项目组今天发布了Visual C++ 2008 Feature Pack。这个Feature Pack包含了一些以前需要付费给BCG Soft才可以使用的控件，例如BCG著名的窗口布局和风格自定义功能，不过也有一些有用的控件，例如文件夹列表、文件夹树、属性窗格等等。
这个Feature Pack也包含从Dinkumware获得授权的一些对STL的扩展，实现了TR1草案。这包含新的随机算法、集合类和正则表达式支持。关于TR1的更多信息，可以参考Dinkumware的网站。

Hard Drive Broke
- 17 March 2008
The first 3 Dell support technicians tried to persuade me to clean the temp files, to remove unnecessary startup programs and to reinstall Windows. It does not help if the computer complains an error during self test. I keep saying a self test error can not be solved by twisting the OS, but they won’t listen. After educating the representatives for a week I finally got one that has better experience (and better English) to examine my computer. A full system test shows bad sectors on the hard drive, and totally toasted the hard drive. Luckily I just bought the computer for 6 months so I asked for a replacement. Dell sent me one in 2 days and I sent back the broken one.
Now my back up hard drive started to fail … Time to call Seagate.

MFC更新Beta版
- 08 January 2008
一个面向Visual C++ 2008的MFC更新测试版已经发布，同时也提供了文档的下载。这个版本包含新的界面的特性，例如Office Ribbon、2003和XP风格,Visual Studio风格和MDI标签。另外，这个版本也包含部分TR1的实现，例如正则表达式、更加丰富的集合和智能指针。 另外，在下载页面居然说这个版本还不支持Visual Studio 2008 Service Pack 1的Beta版，正式版才出来几天SP1的测试版就出来了？
