Hi; just a very quick request ;)

I'm running Visual Studio 2008 and I set up codejock onto it;

I just ran a small test to compile a dummy application created with AppWizard with dynamic linking, but it order to run, it requires the codejock DLL which is more than 10 megabytes!!

I intend to make a very small software which will be downloadable from internet and I just need a few codejock toolkit classes, so I want to ship the lightest executable possible, I don't want to distribute 10 megabytes of DLL;

How do I create a new AppWizard application which will include ONLY the codejock classes I use in my program with static linking ?

A second question: is it possible to static link the codejock classes but to keep the MFC on dynamic linking ??

Thanks in advance for any help provided!

Hi,

There is option "Link with Toolkit Pro static library" in last page.

ok, thanks;)

1 more thing: when I static link, does the compiler includes ONLY the code necessary for the ToolkitPro objects I use in my project, or does it includes the whole code?

ONLY the code necessary

How about resources? When you include <XTToolkitPro.rc> you get all resources, even if you don't need them. Don't you?

Perhaps some "exclude"-defines are needed?

Hi,

_XTP_EXCLUDE_xxx works also for resources:

f.e

_XTP_EXCLUDE_CALENDAR

_XTP_EXCLUDE_SYNTAXEDIT

_XTP_EXCLUDE_REPORTCONTROL
