/SUBSYSTEM:NATIV E linker option not available??

I am trying to write a device driver, and I need to set the project's
system link to /SUBSYSTEM:NATIV E (as opposed to WINDOWS or CONSOLE),
but the option isn't under the drop down box. If I try to type it in
myself, it just reverts back to /SUBSYSTEM/WINDOWS. The NATIVE option
should be in the list inherently, but for some reason, it's not
showing up on mine. Anybody know why?

This has nothing to do with .NET. If you're talking about Visual Studio
(you're not being exactly clear) a better group to ask this in is
microsoft.publi c.vstudio.devel opment. FWIW, both my copies of VC++ 2005 and
VC++ 2008 show all subsystems.

And just in case: no, you can't write device drivers in any .NET language.

In his book, "Modern C++ Design", Andrei Alexandrescu presents a Generic Object Factory class (Loki::Factory). One of its advantages (also mentioned in the book) is being able to register the class in the factory without having a central place that needs to be modified each time we add a new type. For example, the registration can be done in the same compilation unit as the class implementation: (code like this has been presented in...

Hi I have a project that consists of an unmanaged DLL (extended stored procedure) and a static library, which I have converted to managed, although it has got one unmanaged function which is exported to the unmanaged. I keep getting the linker warning 'warning - images compiled with /NOENTRY may not run correctly'. It doesn't seem to have any adverse effects, but what does it mean and how do I get rid of it?

After porting a project from VC6 to VC.NET 2003 I have a very strange problem generating link error 1104 for import libraries. I just ported the project and made some small adaptions so it fits the new IDE. The project itself links against some import libraries belonging to dll's I wrote (these dll's have been ported too, of course). To keep things simple I only use one import library here. To tell the linker it should link against

We seem to be having some problems in moving Application into the new environment. My understanding is that Application in the current environment makes use of 4 separate DB2 sub-systems, 2 of which are in SYSA (production and UAT) and a further 2 in SYSB (development and sys test).(on IBM Mainframe) The new SYSC environment only has 2 DB2 sub-systems. Hence the problem of trying to move 4 DB2 sub-systems into 2!

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
