Generate multiple (on-screen)Virtual Keyboards to include into your portable application via a DLL, so that your users can take theirlanguage/keyboard with them on their travels, even if the PC they use does not have their home keyboard installed.

The technique of finding permutations also provides source code for the recursive implementation. Also, learn how to use the STL template function next_permutation().

This article explains how one can use WPF and Windows Forms windows from native code as modal windows, and what are the problems that can arise and what are the solutions.

Learn about a classical arithmetic compression implementation (CACM) optimization.

Correctly managing the release of heap-allocated memory and other resources has been one of the great challenges of C and C++ development for decades. The new shared_ptr class, shipping with Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and Visual Studio 2010, makes dealing with resource management dramatically simpler.
