CMenuXP is a belittled set of MFC classes that grant developers to supply various graphical user interface elements with an Office XP expect to their MFC apps. What this means is that developers potty supply the flat, non-3D, water-color UI controls that were first introduced in Office XP to their MFC applications. These controls do not have raised edges, do not expect pushed in when clicked, and are not shadowed (except for menus). Instead, when elements are selected, they are outlined and shaded. The following classes are included in the library:
В· CButtonXP: Creates a flat-edged button.
В· CComboBoxXP: Creates a flat-edged combobox.
В· CMenuXP: Allows, among other things, icons along the edge of menus
В· CStatusBarXP: Creates a flat-edged status bar.
В· CToolBarXP: Developers potty easily insert other controls into this toolbar.
В· CBufferDC: Encapsulates double-buffering to reject flickering while drawing.
В· CImgDesc: A menu item paradigm management year.
However, the library has a mate of drawbacks. First, it cannot be used in a lyric other than C++. Second, it is written using MFC, the Microsoft Foundation Classes library. Although some programmers adore this framework, many find it unwieldy. Of flow, the developer who wants to supply the Office XP elan to applications written using MFC may find that this year library potty be of utilization. But developers starting a young project who are looking for a simpler, more secure library may regard to regard other options.
