Error when used in combination with XTP

1. Make the following changes to the settings in the Properties dialog.  To open the Properties dialog, click on the Project menu, then click on the CalendarControlDemo Properties...  menu item.
   
   Configuration Properties->C\C++->General->Additional Include Directories:  Add "..\CalendarControl\Source"
   
   Configuration Properties->C\C++->General->Language->Treat wchar_t as Built: Change to No
   
   Configuration Properties->Linker->General->Additional Library Directories: Add "..\CalendarControl\lib" and "..\CalendarControl\Source"
   
   Configuration Properties->Linker->General->Input->Ignore Specific Library: Add "libcd.lib"
   
   Configuration Properties->Resources->Genaral->Additional Include Directories: Add "..\CalendarControl\Source\Calendar\CalendarControl\res" and "..\CalendarControl\Source"
   
   

2. Add the include file #include <XTCalendarPro.h> for the Calendar Control to the stdafx.h file.  Also, add the #pragma warning(disable:4786) to disable warning message stating that symbols are longer than 255 characters.

   ...
   
   // turns off MFC's hiding of some common and often safely ignored warning messages
   #define _AFX_ALL_WARNINGS
   
   // Disable warning stating that symbols contain more than 255 characters.
   #pragma warning(disable:4786)
   
   #include <afxwin.h>  // MFC core and standard components
   #include <afxext.h>  // MFC extensions
   #include <afxdisp.h> // MFC Automation classes
   
   #include <afxdtctl.h> // MFC support for Internet Explorer 4 Common Controls
   #ifndef _AFX_NO_AFXCMN_SUPPORT
   #include <afxcmn.h>   // MFC support for Windows Common Controls
   #endif // _AFX_NO_AFXCMN_SUPPORT
   
   #include <XTCalendarPro.h> // Calendar Control components
   

3. Add the following line to the CalendarControlDemo.rc2 file in the \res folder.  Make sure that the correct path is included so that the resource compiler can find the resources needed to build the calendar control.

   //
   // CalendarControlDemo.RC2 - resources Microsoft Visual C++ does not edit directly
   //
   
   #ifdef APSTUDIO_INVOKED
   #error this file is not editable by Microsoft Visual C++
   #endif //APSTUDIO_INVOKED
   
    //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /////////////////
   // Add manually edited resources here...
   
   #include "..\CalendarControl\Source\XTCalendarPro.rc"

One more addition to my previous post.

The errors do not occur the moment I include the calendar component in my stdafx.h file, but when I define a variable in my class for the component as follows:

CXTPCalendarControl m_wndCalendar;

The moment I include this line the linker errors occur.

Oleg, thanks for your reply but I already sent you an e-mail explaining that that didn't work as well. In case you didn't get it, here's the mail:

you need to add resource of calendar and toolkitpro.

add

#include "XTToolkitPro.rc" and

#include "XTCalendarPro.rc"

to your rc2 file.

if (!m_wndCalendar.Create(WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|WS_TABSTOP|WS_BOR DER, rc, this, 333))
return -1;

I need to declare the rectangle as CRect(0, 0, 0, 0) instead of my above approach.

Can anybody shed some light on this issue?

Thanks,
Martin

Hi Serge,

yes I already did that as a workaround but I think the above implementation is nicer. Besides I don't understand why the error occurs. It doesn't make sense to me.

But for now it works...
