AI Thread Summary
To transfer projects from Dev-Cpp to Visual C++, create a new project in Visual C++ and manually add all source code and data files. If the original project used libraries specific to Dev-Cpp, modifications to the code may be necessary. Additionally, adjustments to the main() or WinMain() function might be required, but Visual C++ will generate a compatible main function that can be utilized. The project file formats differ between IDEs, which is why direct opening fails. Properly adapting the project ensures successful migration to Visual C++.

How Do I take projects created in Dev-Cpp and transfer it into Visual C++. I mean they are both C++ projects correct? I tried to open these projects in Visual C++, but they just don't want to open...erm I mean I can't open them. Help?

Create a new project in Visual C++ and add all the source code, data files, etc to it.

If you used some libraries that were specific to Dev-Cpp, you may have to modify some of your code. You might need to modify the main() or WinMain() function as well (but when you create the project VC++ will generate a main function that works with VCC+, so just cut-and-paste your code into that).

The format of the "project file" will be specific to each different IDE.

Thread 'Is this public key encryption?'

I've tried to intuit public key encryption but never quite managed. But this seems to wrap it up in a bow. This seems to be a very elegant way of transmitting a message publicly that only the sender and receiver can decipher. Is this how PKE works? No, it cant be. In the above case, the requester knows the target's "secret" key - because they have his ID, and therefore knows his birthdate.

Thread 'Project Documentation'

Trying to package up a small bank account manager project that I have been tempering on for a while. One that is certainly worth something to me. Although I have created methods to whip up quick documents with all fields and properties. I would like something better to reference in order to express the mechanical functions. It is unclear to me about any standardized format for code documentation that exists. I have tried object orientated diagrams with shapes to try and express the...
