description: This is the wxMSWResources class, a convenient way of working with resources with wxWidgets in MSW. The main goal of the class is to allow you to create apps that do not require ANY external files, like .mo catalogs, images, etc. It automatically creates a unique temp folder, allows you to extract resources of any kind to it from the .exe´s module, and deletes them all when the app is closing. It also allows you to access resource data directly. Make shure you check out the sample app \"MyPics\" provided as a Visual Studio.net 2003 project to learn its usage.

why did you choose 'system' and 'wrapper' as categories ?
I think 'miscellaneous' and 'data container' could be ok (even if the last one was not 
exactly intended for such class...) but 'system' and 'wrapper' no; check out

http://wxcode.sourceforge.net/categories.php

looking at http://sourceforge.net/users/cpp, I see that this user account is registered to 
  "Craig Prescott", is it right or maybe you mistyped it ?

Hello, i chose system and wrapper because the class manages resources 
specific to MSW, so i tought it would be appropiate, and wrapper because 
its a wrapper arround (part) of the W32API (its resources part). 
However, this is in fact the very first time i add a component to 
wxCode, and to be honest, i did it in kinda of a hurry, cause im 
currently involved in a quite large project due next january. But its no 
biggie, if you feel it only belongs in miscellaneous & data container, 
ill put select those. (can you please tell me how do i change those 
settings?)
IMPORTANT: About my account being registered to "Craig Prescott", there 
must be some mistake, my sf account is erd_1507 (suer ID *1313915) *and 
my name is Ernesto Rangel Dallet. Should i re-submit the request using 
this account?
Thanks!

Hi,
    I've approved and committed the component to the CVS and added you to the developer 
list; you should be able to commit to wxCode the wxMswRes sources in few hours (as soon as 
Sourceforge gets updated); look at http://wxcode.sourceforge.net/maintguide.php for more 
info...

now I understand ;)
However these categories have other meanings in wxCode categorization system so I removed 
the two categories...

now you can do everything from the "edit your component" link in wxcode.sf.net website.

No, not required; for some reason the SFuser for your wxCode subscription was 'cpp'; I 
adjusted it...

Thanks!,
If i may try your patience a little more with my dumb wxCode-newb questions:

Even tho i been writting code for several years now, I have never, ever 
used CVS (to be honest, i have only a vague concept of what it is), and 
i read on the Maintainer guide, that i have to use it to upload the code.
So, considering  were talking about a single 285kb .zip file, plus i 
dont need to add any kind of webpage or anything.(the information shown 
in the components list is enough).
Is there a way i could jump to "Step 3: make a release for your component" ?

Im planning to add another piece of code to wxCode (a very nice 
wxTimeCtrl) soon, will i again have to use CVS to do it? in other words, 
is it absolutely neccesary to use CVS every time i want to add a component?

Thanks again!

a webpage even if very very simple is usually recommended; you can just edit the one which 
comes in the "template" folder of wxCode...

you could do it, but please, do first a try to setup a CVS client on your PC and to upload
your sources to CVS.
CVS is a powerful system used to store any kind of files which could be modified
contemporaneously by multiple developers. To know more about CVS, I suggest you to read
the intro of the CVSBOOK freely available chapters (do a google search)...

if you are using win32 (as I guess from your mail user agent) I suggest you to use 
TortoiseCVS: extremely easy to use and almost painless (follow maintguide)

it is *strongly* advised since CVS is a very convenient way to provide sources to other 
developers.
Also, it lets you to take advantage of some things like wxCode bakefile build system (see 
links to bakefile in maintguide) ;)

Thanks for your submission !

Hello again Francesco!
I took your advice, and looked up TortoiseCVS, however, before i even 
install it, i think it would be "wise" for me to learn what CVS is 
exacly and how to
 use it  :-[ , for that i also found the book you sugested, and im 
looking forward to reading it, But like i mentioned before, i been 
finishing up my current "work-to-eat" project, wich must be done by mid 
january or else it gets canceled (wich would probably result in me 
killing myself) :-)  so to be quite honest, i just cant risk spending 
time to learn about CVS right now, so i  just uploaded the .zip file of 
wxMSWResources (source, sample, etc) and added a release of it.
I prommise once i get "out of the hole"  (hopefully in the first days of 
january) ill learn about CVS and do it the proper way.

Thanks for everything!
