For use with C/C++, the MIDL compiler generates a header file with struct definitions to match the vtbls of the declared interfaces and a C file containing declarations of the interface GUIDs. C++ source code for a proxy module can also be generated by the MIDL compiler.
windows.h is a source code header file that Microsoft provides for the development of programs that access the Windows API (WinAPI) via C language syntax. It declares the WinAPI functions, associated data types and common macros. Access to WinAPI can be enabled for a C or C++ program by including it into a source file: #include <windows.h>
Since C++20, C++ has offered modules as a modern alternative to precompiled headers, [10] however they differ from precompiled headers in that they do not require the preprocessor directive #include, but rather are accessed using the word import. A module must be declared using the word module to indicate that a file is a module.
Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC) provides several extensions to standard C++ which allow functions to be specified as imported or exported directly in the C++ code; these have been adopted by other Windows C and C++ compilers, including Windows versions of GCC. These extensions use the attribute __declspec before a function
Supports 64-bit and Windows CE executables; Detects if the module is programmed in C or C++; Detects modules not listed in the import address table; Color coding of the list to help highlight problems (broken dependencies are highlighted in red) Traces dependencies recursively, and lists dependencies of all modules in a tree view
The Active Template Library (ATL) is a set of template-based C++ classes developed by Microsoft, intended to simplify the programming of Component Object Model (COM) objects. The COM support in Microsoft Visual C++ allows developers to create a variety of COM objects, OLE Automation servers, and ActiveX controls.
By pointing the cppwinrt.exe tool at metadata, users can generate a library for use with any runtime class implemented in a second- or third-party Windows Runtime component, or implemented in their own application. With C++/WinRT, users can also implement their own runtime classes using standard C++, without resorting to COM-style programming.
In other words, C++ does not have "submodules", meaning the . symbol which may be included in a module name bears no syntactic meaning and is used only to suggest the association of a module. As an example, std.compat is not a submodule of std , but is named so to indicate the association the module bears to the std module (as a "compatibility ...
