Reader Reviews
I must admit I have just read the 5 first chapters these last 3 days and I feel I've gained a deeper understanding of COM. - However the authors does not state how to set up the VC++ project settings to get the code to work. - I've been fighting of Linker errors most of the time since I started typing in the code. It may be I am not proficient enough in VC++ but with a little help from the book I could be focusing on COM instead of VC++ quirks. Some of the code included <iostream> and <string> libraries but did not have "using namespace std" in the printed code. Since I have just been studying namespaces this was not the biggest problem for me. I went to www.mcp.com to fetch updates but I was very dissapointed that there was no updates there. Even though I feel that the book has allready given me more in depth insight in COM I am dissapointed that I have to spend a lot of time browsing the CD-project code to see what made the samples work.
