I want to retrieve the product version during the install time of a .msi in the source file of the .dll which is linked with the .msi. Is there a way to do this with C++/Visual C++.
Thanks.

The question is a bit difficult , what i understand is you want to do some validation , have a look at http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/31021/Getting-version-from-MSI-without-installing-it

Well, you could have had a look at the WIX-HowTo first, they extract the dll-version for error-generation ("your... dll is outdated...")

I want to link C compiler like GCC to my website which will gives the online errors and results.
How can I possibly do this?
Something like http://codepad.org/
You don't link the compiler to the website.
You just take the form input(code) and pass it to the compiler on your server and then display results it has returned.

I need some framework/library/codec pack for decoding image files of various formats (like DirectShow or libvlc for audio/video). I would prefer portable open source C/C++ project. What would you advise?
You could have a look at SDL_image, for instance.
Maybe you can try with OpenCv

You're going to have to ask a better question. What platform are you targeting? What framework are you using? "Beautiful" is in the eye of the beholder.
