今天再看官网推荐的Teechart的使用方式，感觉他们还是推荐使用VC++6.0的导出头文件格式，来引入所有的类，并操作teechart控件。
All the files necessary can be found under the New VC classes folder below the utilities folder; these files should be copied to your project folder (using Windows Explorer) and then should be added in to the project (in Solution Explorer -> right click over "Source Files" & "Header Files" folders -> Add Existing Item...).

长期使用teechart，2010年之前在Delphi使用，这几年使用的是VC++。有段时间自绘了曲线显示窗口，但是要处理的动作和效果实在是太多了，虽然可以自定义的东西很多，但是工作量实在是太大，现在已经是大龄程序员了，没有那么多的时间和精力去自己画了，只好重用teechart。
VS使用上的困惑:有几个软件用的是VS2005及以上版本开发的，但是因为在这些编译器中teechart导出的函数接口有改动，导致变成效率底下：
添加相关类MFC Class From Typelib--->add class from registry---->available type libraries选中teechart pro activex control v8，后面会显示具体的注册路径。把接口interfaces IAxes之类的全部选中，导入到程序中，就可以使用了。导出文件举例如下：

VS版本的导出文件：

几大变化：

语句的不同

使用高版本的VS导出的头文件使用过程比较繁琐，尤其是返回值，需要查询具体的类型。
官网推荐还是使用VC++6.0的版本，并且附上了一个文件夹，可以直接使用New VC Classes具体的使用过程还是查询Tutorial 15 - MS VC++ Applications

官方文档中几个有用的例子：

标题的更改

#include "Titles.h"
#include "Strings.h"

COleVariant var1(CString ("ACME Monthly Sales"));
COleVariant var2(CString ("Year: 2014"));
CTitles hd = m_Chart.GetHeader();
hd.GetText().Clear();
hd.GetText().Add(*(LPCVARIANT)var1);
hd.GetText().Add(*(LPCVARIANT)var2);

//if items (header lines) already in list (+ alternative COleVariant declare syntax)

m_Chart1.GetHeader().GetText().SetItem(0, COleVariant("ACME Monthly Sales"));
m_Chart1.GetHeader().GetText().SetItem(1, COleVariant("Year: 2014"));

Canvas绘图

#include "Canvas.h"

m_Chart1.GetCanvas().MoveTo(0,0);
m_Chart1.GetCanvas().LineTo(100,100);
m_Chart1.GetCanvas().TextOut(50,50,"My output text");

坐标轴label的文字修改

CString strLabel(*LabelText);
strLabel += " Period";
strLabel.SetSysString(LabelText);

坐标轴label 的数值更改

{
  if (Axis == atLeft)
  {
    *MoreLabels = true;

    //Only label if following cases are true   
    switch( LabelIndex ) 
    {    
      case 0: *LabelValue = 900; break;
      case 2: *LabelValue = 5000; break;
      case 1: *LabelValue = 10000; break;
      default: *MoreLabels=false;
    }
  }
}

界面绘图：

CString text;
  int value1,value2,total;
 
  value1 = 4;
  value2 = 6;
  
  total = value1+value2;
  
  text.Format(_T("Serie : %d"),total);

  m_Chart1.GetCanvas().TextOut(10,10,text));

常量定义部分：官方给出一个头文件TeeChartDefines.h，为什么不能通过添加类的方式引入，原因是MS VC++ doesn't natively support import of TeeChart constants. You need to create you own defines file and #include it in your project. We offer a pre built defines file in the Examples\Visual C++ folder. Including the file in your project will allow you to use constants by name as matching the Enum declarations in the Online help file.

• How to use TeeChart constants in MS VC++.
• Where are descriptions of functions such as GetSeries(), Add() and other similar functions?
• Changes made at design time with the Chart Editor do not always save.
• How do I add/change text of the Chart Header and Footer at runtime in MS VC++ ?
• Can I obtain any additional examples with use of TeeChart Pro for VC++?
