Im building my apps using MS Visual Studio.

I want to have the images im using in dialogs compiled into my apps binaries via the

standard windows resource files.



Whats the best way to handle this with DialogBlocks?



Ive noticed DialogBlocks creates a resource file on creating a new app. Can

DialogBlocks specfiy the images in that file and then set the image type to

wxBITMAP_TYPE_xxxx_RESOURCE ?



Thanks.

I am only using an icon in my .rc and it looks like this:

<;handle> <type&gt; <file&gt;

AFL16 icon AFL_ICON.ico



In my frame code:

#include "wx/gdicmn.h&quot;

wxIcon icon1(wxICON(AFL16));

SetIcon(icon1);

Not automatically, I'm afraid, but you could tailor the generated

GetBitmapResource to load the resources you manually put in the .rc file,

putting the custom code at the front of the comment block or

removing the comment block.
