very offtopic… Im trying to resurrect some old MFC code, but the newer Visual Studio Express doesnt support MFC, (which was quite a surprise)
I foolishly thought that a copy of VC++ 5 or 6 would be lying around in someones bottom drawer and going for sixpence on ebay, but apparently not.
Does anyone have a source for such a valued antique?
Visual Studio Community 2015 does provide MFC. The Lexing Plugin uses MFC, and therefore you should be able to use MFC for free.
If I remember correctly, after downloading the community you have to download the MFC package within the application.
If anyone knows how, I’d be grateful… I cant find such an option. There is a NuGet feature but if I try to add something there, I dont have a dropdown list, and I dont know a URL
Found a copy on US eBay. Seems like most Brits prefer to keep our old discs, or chuck them in the skip…
