Deprecated ANSI APIs
The Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) library is migrating toward classes and methods that are based on the Unicode character set. Consequently, the ANSI versions of several MFC methods are deprecated. Use the Unicode versions of these methods in your future applications.
Starting with Windows Common Controls version 6.1, which ships in Windows Vista, the following ANSI methods are deprecated.
CButton class
AFX_ANSI_DEPRECATED BOOL GetIdealSize(LPSIZE psize) const;
AFX_ANSI_DEPRECATED BOOL GetImageList(PBUTTON_IMAGELIST pbuttonImagelist) const;
AFX_ANSI_DEPRECATED BOOL GetTextMargin(LPRECT pmargin) const;
AFX_ANSI_DEPRECATED BOOL SetImageList(PBUTTON_IMAGELIST pbuttonImagelist);
AFX_ANSI_DEPRECATED BOOL SetTextMargin(LPRECT pmargin);
CComboBoxEx class
AFX_ANSI_DEPRECATED HRESULT SetWindowTheme(LPCWSTR pszSubAppName);
CEdit class
AFX_ANSI_DEPRECATED BOOL GetCueBanner(LPWSTR lpszText, int cchText) const;
