I have Visual Studio 2005 Standard Edition installed. Recently I installed Visual Studio 2008 Standard Edition. After installing Visual Studio 2008 Standard Edition the project type being generated for Win32 DLLs using MFC appears to be incorrect. It could be it was incorrect before in VS 2005 and I did not notice it.
In either Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2008 I choose:
New Project | Win32 Project ( giving a name ) | Application Settings - click Application Type DLL and click Add Common Headers for MFC | Finish. I end up with a source file which says at the top: "Defines the entry point for the DLL application." and a _tmain routine which is clearly the entry point for an application, not a DLL.
