To build and run the OLEVIEW sample

The application has an SDI interface with two panes. The left pane allows you to browse the registry by means of a tree control. Once you select a node, the right pane will display the pertinent information.

Note that this sample application cannot display information for all the objects, but rather only for objects that support the IViewer interface.

This sample demonstrates the following keywords:

AfxGetInstanceHandle; AfxMessageBox; AfxOleInit; AfxThrowMemoryException; AfxThrowOleException; BitBlt; CBitmap::CreateBitmap; CBitmap::LoadBitmap; CBrush::CreateSolidBrush; CCmdTarget::BeginWaitCursor; CCmdTarget::EndWaitCursor; CDC::Attach; CDC::BitBlt; CDC::CreateCompatibleDC; CDC::DeleteDC; CDC::Detach; CDC::GetPixel; CDC::GetTextMetrics; CDC::SelectObject; CDialog::DoModal; CDialog::OnInitDialog; CDocument::OnCloseDocument; CDocument::OnNewDocument; CDocument::UpdateAllViews; CFileDialog::DoModal; CFileDialog::GetPathName; CFont::CreateFontIndirect; CFrameWnd::Create; CFrameWnd::GetActiveDocument; CFrameWnd::LoadFrame; CFrameWnd::OnCreateClient; CFrameWnd::SetActiveView; CGdiObject::DeleteObject; CListBox::SetCurSel; CObject::AssertValid; CObject::Dump; CRect::Height; CRect::Width; CScrollView::SetScrollSizes; CSplitterWnd::CreateStatic; CSplitterWnd::CreateView; CSplitterWnd::GetColumnInfo; CSplitterWnd::GetPane; CSplitterWnd::SetColumnInfo; CStatic::SetIcon; CString::Format; CString::GetBuffer; CString::IsEmpty; CString::LoadString; CString::ReleaseBuffer; CView::GetDocument; CView::OnDragEnter; CView::OnDragLeave; CView::OnDragOver; CView::OnDrop; CView::OnInitialUpdate; CView::OnUpdate; CWinApp::AddDocTemplate; CWinApp::ExitInstance; CWinApp::InitInstance; CWinApp::OnFileNew; CWinApp::SetRegistryKey; CWnd::DoDataExchange; CWnd::DragAcceptFiles; CWnd::GetParent; CWnd::GetSafeHwnd; CWnd::GetStyle; CWnd::GetWindowPlacement; CWnd::GetWindowRect; CWnd::OnCreate; CWnd::OnDestroy; CWnd::OnSize; CWnd::OnSysColorChange; CWnd::ScreenToClient; CWnd::SetFocus; CWnd::SetFont; CWnd::SetRedraw; CWnd::SetWindowPlacement; CWnd::SetWindowPos; CWnd::SetWindowText; CWnd::ShowWindow; ClientToScreen; CoCreateInstance; CoFreeUnusedLibraries; CoGetClassObject; CoGetMalloc; CreateSolidBrush; DeleteItem; DeleteObject; EnumFontFamilies; ExtTextOut; ExtractIcon; FormatMessage; FreeLibrary; FreeProcInstance; GetBkColor; GetClientRect; GetDC; GetDeviceCaps; GetNearestColor; GetObject; GetParent; GetProcAddress; GetProfileInt; GetProfileString; GetStockObject; GetSysColor; GetSystemMetrics; GetTextExtentPoint; GetTextMetrics; GetUserDefaultLCID; GetVersionEx; GetWindowLong; GetWindowRect; IClassFactory::CreateInstance; IMalloc::Free; IUnknown::QueryInterface; IUnknown::Release; IsWindow; LoadBitmap; LoadIcon; LoadLibrary; LoadLibraryEx; LocalFree; MAKEINTRESOURCE; MakeProcInstance; MulDiv; OffsetRect; Polygon; RGB; RectVisible; RegCloseKey; RegEnumKey; RegOpenKey; RegQueryValue; ReleaseDC; SelectObject; SetBkColor; SetTextColor; SetWindowPos; TabbedTextOut; WinExec; WinHelp; WriteProfileString; _fstrnicmp; atoi; isdigit; isspace; isxdigit; lstrcat; lstrcmpi; lstrcpy; lstrlen; max; strrchr; toupper; wsprintf

Note
Some samples, such as this one, have not been modified to reflect the changes in the Visual C++ wizards, libraries, and compiler, but still demonstrate how to complete your desired task.
