shAt!!
u know that resource editor i was talking about? well i just found out that visual c++ 6.0 has an awesum resource editor that can do everything i had planned for my own resource editor!
so basically if i went ahead with the project i would be re-inventing the wheel =(
good thing i found out soon enuff...i dont think im gonna go ahead with it now, whats the point?? :confused:
im gonna have to find an idea for a new project now :mad:

Not only that but I just learned that RadASM has a pretty decient resource editor as well.. (yes im stubborn sometimes when it comes to software, and i just learned of it now).

RadASM gets its name from its resource editor, I think...

If you like studying/exploring, I recommend you to start the project. One minor plus against other similar software is absolutely a good enough reason to start coding! I'll give you a hint about one minor, invisible feature - windows. Try to use as few as possible separate windows to display it all. Use mhook.exe (from izcellion tutes) to view windows in an app. See windows in radasm - many windows for almost every control. See VC - one window. Accomplishing this task will be an adventure through a lot of different types of code. This will not be seen by users, but I am sure you'll see the power of custom-drawn windows and you might put it in good use in near future ;) . Even if you don't finish the project 100%, you will have learnt some things that you might need in your future coding.
Anyway, won't you feel good if you finish such a big project?
Choose wisely. :grin:

Plus AnotherWay83 vc isnt free. So if anyone, struggles to created such an app, we take whatever power M$ has away from them. Like Radasm, it has so many features, why use such a an app. (like vc)
Sometimes the wheel needs reinventing :)

hmm...i guess u have a point, i mean even tho the VC one is really nice its still not free, and many ppl. would be thankful if there was a solid, free one available...plus it'll force me to not waste all my time watching porn :grin:
ultrano, ill look into what u said abt that windows thing, thanks :D
