WTL Wizard for Visual Studio 2022

Since the official version of WTL 10 does not support Visual Studio 2022, we tried to fix this version. In 2017 I released a completely new version to allow WTL to continue to run on VS2017. Later, the official version of WTL 10 was released, but unfortunately WTL did not support the new version of Visual Studio. We try to keep WTL working for us.


Update for WTL 10 (Old Version):

The old version of WTL Wizard 2017 has been placed in the Release version.

Since WTL 10 is released and it now supports Visual Studio 2017 It's time to return to official WTL version. Let's enjoy WTL 10!

Old soldiers never die; They only fade away!

Windows Template Library (WTL) is a C++ library for developing Windows applications and UI components. It extends ATL (Active Template Library) and provides a set of classes for controls, dialogs, frame windows, GDI objects, and more.

WTL Wizard is Visual Studio project wizard for WTL. Since current WTL built-in Setup and Wizard cannot works for latest release version of Visual Studio 2017. The project will create a workable Setup Tool and Project Wizard for Visual Studio 2017. The old design of WTL cannot meet new Visual Studio 2017 requirement. To solve the issue, old "Files" are cloned to "Files_15" and all updates are patched in new "Files_15" folder. The old "Files" is still kept to work for old Visual Studio.

Update Story, because the official version of WTL does not support the new version of Visual Studio. We had no choice but to restart the project and let WTL continue to work for us.
