Creating Converting Visual Basic OCX using GDI + to C ++

We have an OCX created in VB6 which uses GDI+ to create an enhaced commandbutton ( with transparancy, rounded corners, etc ...). This control works fine but we're now seeking to improove the overall speed of the control ( i.e. when a lot of buttons need to be redrawed on the screen ). That's why I think it might be interesting to convert the ocx to C++. Keep in mind that the OCX must still be usable in VB6. You'll recieve the full functional OCX and source-code in VB6 which must be converted to Visual C ++ (mfc ??) or any other language that will perform faster that vb6. The control is placed as an controlarray ( about 50 controls) on a form with autoredraw set to true. When we perform a loop trough all controls to e.g. change the caption and backcolors, it takes about 1-2 seconds to accomplish the changes, while the same routine with a standard commandbutton finish much more quicker. We do had found alternive controls to the standard commandbutton which where as quick as the standard commandbutton, but none where really performing as requesting some other tasks. The control has a +/- 20 properties and 4 methods and about 500 lines of code in Vb6. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working ocx with a testprogram in VB§ 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased. (No GPL, GNU, 3rd party components, etc. unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the coder's Seller Legal Agreement). ## Platform The ocx needs to be running on W2K and Windows XP and accesible from VB6.
