Windows Template Library (WTL) is a C++ library for developing Windows applications and UI components. It extends ATL (Active Template Library) and provides a set of classes for controls, dialogs, frame windows, GDI objects, and more.
WTL Wizard is Visual Studio project wizard for WTL. Since current WTL built-in Setup and Wizard cannot works for latest release version of Visual Studio 2017. The project will create a workable Setup Tool and Project Wizard for Visual Studio 2017. The old design of WTL cannot meet new Visual Studio 2017 requirement. To solve the issue, old "Files" are cloned to "Files_15" and all updates are patched in new "Files_15" folder. The old "Files" is still kept to work for old Visual Studio.
