Problems with Windows 10: Visual Studio 2015 desktop express / atlbase.h / atls.lib or atlsd.lib VS2015 does not have 'ATL' projects. I had hoped to use the WTL header files to build old projects under windows 10 desktop. I can get the header files from Win71. DDK but not the lib files. The lib files ought to be available for developers!

for vs2013(two changes): `var strVCKey = "HKLM\\Software\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\12.0\\Setup\\VC\\ProductDir"` `var strDestFolder = FileSys.BuildPath(strValue, "vcprojects");` my machine is 32bit.

Small changes for VS2013. Obvious installation search/replace on setup110.js from 11 to 12. Deprecated GetVersionEx() functions mean some small tweaks to atlapp.h. Trivial ones based on VersionHelpers.h and ::IsWindows[XXX]OrGreater() function calls. I used the #if (_ATL_VER >= 0x0C00) macro to support the old and new.

So powerful, so easy to use (after learning curve, which is mainly C++ learning).
ntrifunovic Posted 2011-02-25

The best UI library I have worked with.
sebas_ledesma Posted 2010-02-17

Too pity Microsoft has dumped this good framework. It's pretty usefull. This and OWL/OWLNext are great frameworks.

Great Library! Anyone needing to do Native GUI programming on the windows platform should seriously consider this for their toolbox.
eikonos Posted 2009-11-24

A great framework for writing Windows apps.

Great FrameWork, but it really needs some documentation to go with it.
