Resource file Description: use resources (continued)

# @ Resource Nodes @ dialog box
You can use the @ Resource Nodes des @ dialog box to modify the normal work arrangement of the environment. This arrangement stores all resources in the. rc file of the project and stores all symbols in Resource. h.
To open the @ Resource endpoints des @ dialog box, right-click the. rc file in Resource View and select @ Resource endpoints des @ from the shortcut menu @.
Symbol header file
Allows you to change the name of the header file defined by the symbol of the storage resource file. For more information, see Changing the Names of Symbol Header Files.
Read-Only symbol command
This allows you to include header files that do not contain symbols modified during session editing.
For example, you can include a symbolic file shared by several projects.
You can also include the MFC. h file. For more information, see Including Shared (Read-Only) or Calculated Symbols.
Compile-time instruction
Allows resource files that are created and edited independently by using resources in the primary resource file, including compile-time commands (for example, commands containing resources by conditions), or resources in custom formats.
You can also use the @ Compile-time directives @ box to include Standard MFC resource files. For more information, see Including Resources at Compile Time.
Note that the items in these text boxes appear in. rc files marked with TEXTINCLUDE 1, TEXTINCLUDE 2, and TEXTINCLUDE 3 respectively. For more information, see TN035: Using Multiple Resource Files and Header Files with Visual C ++.
Once the Resource file is changed in the @ Resource endpoints des @ dialog box, you need to close the. rc file and re-open it for the change to take effect. For more information, see Including Resources at Compile Time.
