information, string tables and bitmaps. It is compiled into a
binary resource that is linked to the project output file.
• Toolbar.BMP
This bitmap exists only if you choose the Add custom command to
toolbar option in the Module Wizard. The bitmap file contains just
three toolbar buttons, but you can easily extend it to include as
many buttons you'd like.
• ProjectName.DEF
Windows definition file. It contains the exposed entry points of
the ProjectName.DLL.
• ProjectName.IDL
The IDL file of our project. You will add interface and method
definitions here. Microsoft's MIDL compiler will process this file
to produce the type library (.tlb) file, in addition to
ProjectName.h, which is included in ProjectName.CPP.
• ProjectName.H
This file contains interface declarations for the COM object, i.e.,
EON module. The MIDL compiler produces the ProjectName.h file based
on the project's IDL file.
• ProjectName.CPP
This is the main implementation file for the COM object housing. It
contains source code for the DLL exports, and offers both ATL and
MFC support. (Note the presence of the_Module and theApp global
variables that are there to support the use of ATL and MFC
classes.)
• EONMODULE.H
This header file contains the class declaration of your EON Studio
module's class CEonModule, which is the class you have to modify to
include module-specific functionality.
• EONMODULE.CPP
The CEonModule class is implemented in this file. It may provide
functions for licensing, connecting new views to the EON Studio
GUI, adding toolbars, etc.
• MODULEVIEW.H
This file holds the declarations of the sub-classed window used as
the module's view.
• MODULEVIEW.CPP
This file contains the source code for the implementation of the
sub-classed window that your module uses as its view (or as split
views). This is where all displaying of GUI objects for various
data exposure should be placed. Here, you should also add code to
support different kinds of module messages (that is, if you have
decided to include module message handling in your module).
• README.TXT
This file contains some brief information about each file inserted
into the new project.
