Projects in Visual C++ 6
Projects in Visual C++ 6 are organised in Workspaces; an application will normally have one workspace. Each workspace can hold one or more projects. In practice this means one project for each exe or dll.If you look in the Win 32 folder where you created the project you'll see a number of files. There's the Source Files either c or cpp files (source code), at least one header file (stdafx.h) plus a .dsp file that holds the project details and a .dsw file that holds the workspace details.
Other files include the .plg which is created when you compile. It's a html file which holds the log of the compilation. Double click it and your default browser will open and display it.
The .ncb and .opt files holds information about the settings and log of Visual Studio- both are binary files so of no further interest to us.
