The information in this article applies to:
- The ClassWizard, included with:
- Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Enterprise Edition, version 6.0
- Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Professional Edition, version 6.0
- Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Learning Edition, version 6.0
- Microsoft Visual C++.NET (2002)

SYMPTOMS
========
When using ClassWizard to add Methods and Properties to an ATL interface in a
MFC Application, ClassWizard will add the following line to the top of each
function:
AFX_MANAGE_STATE(AfxGetStaticModuleState())
AfxGetStaticModuleState() is used to maintain MFC global state information inside
a MFC regular DLL. Using AfxGetStaticModuleState() in an MFC EXE will not change
to the correct module state. In addition, it will cause the MFC DLL startup
source to be linked into the EXE increasing it's size.
AfxGetAppModuleState() should be used in MFC EXEs.
RESOLUTION
==========
Change the AFX_MANAGE_STATE line to read:
AFX_MANAGE_STATE(AfxGetAppModuleState())
If the same code is used in an EXE and MFC regular DLL, use a #define:
#ifdef _USRDLL
# define AFXMANAGESTATE AfxGetStaticModuleState()
#else
# define AFXMANAGESTATE AfxGetAppModuleState()
#endif
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the
beginning of this article.
MORE INFORMATION
================
MFC classes which use global and thread based MFC data need to use a specific
MFC module state. As a result, entry points need to switch module states using
the AFX_MANAGE_STATE macro to the module state associated with the EXE or DLL.
Entry points that would be affected include callback functions, custom windows
procedures, and COM interfaces that are called from inproc servers.
