While changing my code to MFC 9, I get the following error when compiling
this code:

IMPLEMENT_DYNCREATE(CMySplitterWnd, CSplitterWndEx)

error C2039: 'classCSplitterWndEx' : is not a member of 'CSplitterWndEx'

I went searching and found this:

http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=350585

So it is a bug in MFC, and with my Compiler patched with the latest updates
I'll still get the error.

Are they waiting for VS 2010 to fix this, or is there a workaround for VS
2008 other than compiling the code to use the MFC9 dll.

thanks

Rick,
    The bug is minor enough that it doesn't justify the expense and risk of publishing a fixed version for MFC 9. It is fixed in VS2010.
    The workaround is to put CSplitterWnd as the base class:
IMPLEMENT_DYNCREATE(CMySplitterWnd, CSplitterWnd)
    I don't mean to actually change the CMySplitterWnd definition, just "lie" to IMPLEMENT_DYNCREATE and skip over CSplitterWndEx.
Everything (except one feature) will work as normal: you won't be able to use the IsKindOf (IsDerivedFrom) feature to know that
CMySplitterWnd is really derived from CSplitterWndEx. Does that pose a problem? I'm guessing not.
