take care,

MFC (Microsoft Foundation Classes) is an object oriented abstraction of
the Win32 API for GUI application development.  It requires C++ rather
than plain C.

FruitBasket-MFCthis is C with MFC right? just to make sure I have things clear, I'm a bit tired due to pain meds right now, and am not as clear thinking as I could wish. ,

I downloaded both jic, but I have used .zip all along so far, and think I will keep doing so, but I'll keep the .rar in case someone requests it.

thanks ken,

You ask for it you got it. Here it is the one the only FruitBasket in MFC. The hardest part of writing this was using the resource editor. It was like being back in Visual studio 6. Why they didn't just make the current dialog editor work for the old resources I don't know. I doubt they will fix this in 2008 but we can all pray. Jamal have you tried the MFC resource editor and do you think it could be made to be accessible like the forms editor?

Anyway even with the problems I was able to make the FruitBasket program in little to no time so here it is. Note most of the guts of the program is in FruitBasketDlg.cpp and FruitBasketDlg.h I am going to try to make a minimalist version of this but the trouble I had with a single source version of this was the command line options. Microsoft has not made it easy to just compile an MFC application. Further more a single cpp file would need all the controls done dynamically rather than in a resource file. While that would get around the problems I had with the resource editor, I find fighting with the resource files easier than writing all the code to create the controls dynamically. This doesn't mean I won't make a minimalist version of the MFC FruitBasket it just means it is not done yet. I will most likely make it when I re make the win32 version I lost.

OK here is the link to the two archives of the MFC version. I made two because some people on this list like .rar and some like .zip. Inthane use which ever you want to on the page it is the same file. The executable is under the release directory.

  .rar:

  .zip
