Hello everyone,
I've been considering MFD development recently, as I would like to be able to create a few tools for various things in Orbiter. I now feel that I have a fairly strong grasp of the C++ language, but I know very little about the specifics in creating an MFD.
I have the CustomMFD solution set up in Visual Studio 2010 now, but the solution has a CustomMFD.rc resource file and a resource.h header defined, but not included for the project to use. What exactly is a resource file, and how is it supposed to be used?
