I am using a static library build of Prof-UIS with a numberof  #defines in Prof-UIS.h uncommented to reduce the final .EXE size. I  have just upgraded from V2.84 to V2.85 and the .EXE size has increased by 3,219KB or over 3MB for the Release Build. I compared the V2.84 and V2.85 versions of Prof-UIS.h and found two new #defines __EXT_MFC_NO_FORMULA_GRID and __EXT_MFC_NO_GEO_CONTROLS which were not included in the V2.85 // trial/commercial features section of the .h. I have added these and done a complete rebuild but they made little difference. I then went back and did a clean rebuild using V2.84 to verify the increase in code size was correct.

I have had a quick look at the .MAP file to see if I could see where all the extra code is coming from but nothing was obvious. I am using VS2008.

I don’t want my .EXE to increase by 3MB for no benefit to my users.

This is the // trial/commercial features section of my Prof-UIS.h file.

Thanks.

Thanks.

#include "ResGeoControls\\ResGeoControls.rc"

added the 3MB, so commenting that out resolved my main issue.

Uncommenting the __EXT_MFC_NO_RESOURCES_*** lines saved another 8442KB which is welcome.

Please comment out all unnecessary resources in the ...\Prof-UIS\Include\Resources\resource.rc file. First of all, you can remove unnecessary languages by uncommenting //#define __EXT_MFC_NO_RESOURCES_*** lines. Then you can comment out the following line if you don’t need geographic controls and, as a result, you will save 3 MB:

#include "ResGeoControls\\ResGeoControls.rc"

If you don’t need Office 2007 themes, then you can comment the next line and save the next 3MB:

#include "Res2007\\Res2007.rc"

Thanks.
