Editing dc++
I have d/loaded dc++ 0.68 and i am wanting to change things, like the name of it for example, the wording, and i want to change the look of the console, i do not have a clue how to do it, do i need some software?
I am wanting to edit the program to have the same look and feel as the [WH] theme (balck white and orange) as my website is this colour, can anyone help at all, just editing the console will be good, i can teach myself from there.
Cheers

First of all you have to have access to Microsoft Visual Studio .NET (With C++ support) which is a Integrated Development Environment.
Then you need the sourcecode (available from CVS).
To understand what's going on in the code you also need some knowledge about Windows-specific C++ code (www.codeproject.com is a good source of info)

is it poss
Is it possable for you to be able to do this for me? or is that out of the question, the following is what i want doing really
Want doing:-
Name changing to [WH]dc++ wherever it says dc++
Colour theme changing to black,orange and minimum white
Segment downloading
Other stuff (not wanted but would be nice)
Where the [wh]DC++ text is at the top of the console text saying designed for whiteleys hubs by - Your name here (Or whoever can do it)
Segment d/loading
That would be all really, is this a easy job and would i be able to do it with no experience in c++ ??

Re: c++
The bonus is that Visual C++ Toolkit is free, but I'm not sure you'll be able to use it to compile DC++ without a bit of ingenuity.kevwhiteley wrote:I have got microsoft visual c++ toolkit 2003 installed on my PC. but it is forign to me lol
CVS is a tool for keeping track of versions of software. Unless you know what you're doing, you don't need (or want) to deal with the source code in CVS - it hasn't been released and often has known bugs.kevwhiteley wrote:how do get the cvs files and where from
