Hi Mathew,

Finally I've started replacing on all CString.Format dependency of our service framework the by FastFormat.

I've come across an issue with the ATL based services.
Before to allow for STLSoft to play well with ATL and not start including MFC files that are not required ( aka afx.h) I declared the following defines in the project:
	#define STLSOFT_INCL_H_AFX

Now by bringing FastFormat and it looks like because I do use the “CString Access Shims” it starts including stuff from MFC. The exploring resulted in me adicionally declaring the following defines:
	#define MFCSTL_INCL_MFCSTL_SHIMS_ACCESS_STRING_HPP_CWND
	#define MFCSTL_INCL_MFCSTL_SHIMS_ACCESS_STRING_HPP_CEXCEPTION

So my question, and it’s a request, is there a possibility for you to stream line this #defines into just one?

Thanks

Hi Cláudio

If you can post (or email through) smallest possible project that illustrates the issue, I'll see what I can do. I've been busy - an old story ;`/ - but new releases of both STLSoft and FastFormat are well past due, so a fix would be fitting.

Matt

Hi Matt,

Please find attached a simple example.

In the end what I do is simply go through the ATL Wizard, choosing Service, and just include the STL Shims to get the issue of STL Soft trying to include <afx.h>.

I nailed down the issue to probably STLSoft 1.10 and not FastFormat as I previously stated.

My base line is:
  - STLSoft 1.10 Over STLSoft 1.9.112
  - FastFormat 0.7.1

BR,
