       CLUSTER ADMINISTRATOR EXTENSION : Dummy

========================================================================





AppWizard has created this Cluster Administrator Extension DLL for you.

This DLL demonstrates the basics of modifying the interface of

Cluster Administrator and is also a starting point for writing your DLL.



This file contains a summary of what you will find in each of the files that

make up your Cluster Administrator Extension DLL.



DummyEx.h

    This is the main header file for the DLL.  It declares the

    CDummyApp class.



DummyEx.cpp

    This is the main DLL source file.  It contains the class CDummyApp.

    It also contains the OLE entry points required of inproc servers.



DummyEx.rc

    This is a listing of all of the Microsoft Windows resources that the

    program uses.  It includes the icons, bitmaps, and cursors that are stored

    in the RES subdirectory.  This file can be directly edited in Microsoft

    Developer Studio.



res\DummyEx.rc2

    This file contains resources that are not edited by Microsoft 

    Developer Studio.  You should place all resources not

    editable by the resource editor in this file.



DummyEx.def

    This file contains information about the DLL that must be

    provided to run with Microsoft Windows.  It defines parameters

    such as the name and description of the DLL.  It also exports

    functions from the DLL.



DummyEx.clw

    This file contains information used by ClassWizard to edit existing

    classes or add new classes.  ClassWizard also uses this file to store

    information needed to create and edit message maps and dialog data

    maps and to create prototype member functions.



ExtObj.h

    This is the header file which defines the classes which implement the

    COM interfaces by the Microsoft Windows NT Cluster Administrator program

    for adding property pages, wizard pages, or context menu items.  It

    defines the CExtObject class.



ExtObj.cpp

    This is the source file which implements the CExtObject class.



ExtObjID.idl

    This the Interface Definition Language source file for defining

    the COM object implemented by the extension DLL.  This is the object

    that will be loaded by the Cluster Administrator program.



RegExt.h

    This is the header file which declares the functions used to register

    the Cluster Administrator extension DLL with both the cluster and the

    client machine.



RegExt.cpp

    This is the source file which implements registration for the Cluster

    Administrator extension DLL.



/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Other standard files:



StdAfx.h, StdAfx.cpp

    These files are used to build a precompiled header (PCH) file

    named Dummy.pch and a precompiled types file named StdAfx.obj.



Resource.h

    This is the standard header file, which defines new resource IDs.

    Microsoft Developer Studio reads and updates this file.



/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Property page files:



BasePage.h

    This is the header file which defines a class which provides base

    property page functionality for use by extension property pages.  It

    defines the CBasePropertyPage class.



BasePage.cpp

    This is the source file which implements the CBasePropertyPage class.



BasePage.inl

    This is the source file which implements inline functions for the

    CBasePropertyPage class.



PropList.h

    This is the header file which defines classes for manipulating

    cluster property lists.  It defines the CClusPropList and CObjectProperty

    classes.



PropList.cpp

    This is the source file which implements the CClusPropList and

    CObjectProperty classes for manipulating cluster property lists.



ResProp.h

    This is the header file which defines a property page titled "Parameters"

    to add to property sheets for resources for which your extension DLL is

    written.  It defines the CDummyParamsPage class.



ResProp.cpp

    This is the source file which implements the CDummyParamsPage class.

Other notes:



To register your extension DLL so that it can be used with the Cluster

Administrator program, use the RegClAdm.exe SDK tool on each machine on

which the Cluster Administrator is to be executed.  RegCladm.exe is

located in the BIN sub-directory of your Visual C++ Installation Directory

(typically C:\MSDEV\BIN):



    RegClAdm [/cclustername] DummyEx.dll



AppWizard uses "TODO:" to indicate parts of the source code you

should add to or customize.



This DLL uses MFC.  Because the Enterprise Edition of Microsoft Windows NT

Server includes MFC DLLs from Visual C++ 4.2, you will need to distribute

MFC42U.DLL from the version of Visual C++ that builds your extension DLL.
