event handling

[dragonslayer008]

I am writing a custom control in C++/CLI. In the Visual Studio
designer, I clicked to handle the paint event. This worked fine
except that Visual Studio put the function definition in the header
file instead of the .cpp file. Is it okay if I move it to the .cpp
file? Or is this potentially a bad idea since it was generated code?

That should be fine. The risk occurs the other way around - i.e., if you add
to a block of code that is generated by a designer, you might have a problem
(but even then, it's usually only a problem if you add it in a way that the
designer doesn't recognize).
