I have a Dialog Applicatio with a CTreeCtrl in it . On a right click event I need to get the position of the mouse so that i can show another dialog at that location .
What method do I need to call ?

GetCursorPos() returns the position of the mouse, then use ScreenToClient() to translate it.

I think I need a new quote, I am on the prowl, so look out for a soft cute furry looking animal, which is really a Hippo in disguise. Its probably me.

Thank you. that worked . I needed just the GetCursorpositon function .
I couldnt actually get the significance of the screentoClient method. Please can u explain ?

I am trying to set up an 2D array using COleSafeArray but I get an error ("INVALID INDEX) when I set the index to include negative values.
In short, I want an array with -10

You need to give index[1] some value, i.e., initialize the array. In the way you are using it the position 1 of the index has nothing in it. if you add something like
index[1] = 0;
before your for loop your code should work.

 I derived a class from CButton, let's call it My_Button for the sake of discussion. Then I derived another class from My_Button, call it My_Button1. I thought I could create message handlers in My_Button that would handle common actions for all my button classes, but for some reason, My_Button (my base class) doesn't respond to the messages. Here's what happens... If I create a message handler (OnMouseMove) in the My_Button class, it won't capture mouse movement, but if I add that handler in the My_Button1 class, it does! Am I missing something? Shouldn't my new base class also handle it?
Thanks.

Check the BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP macros in .cpp files. Probably Your_Button1 goes straight to CButton (not to Your_Button) when handling Windows messages - it has CButton as 2nd macro argument and should have Your_Button.

Thanks, that did the trick. Guess you can tell I'm new at this. Seemed obvious once you provided the answer. Of course, doesn't it always? 
Thanks again for the speedy reply.

Hi,
Can anyone explain the following problem, to do with CArray and CPtrArray?
My member variables are:
CArray<CMyClass,CMyClass> m_objects;
CPtrArray m_pointers;
I try to initialize them like this:
for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++){
m_objects.Add(CMyClass());
m_objects[i].m_nMember = i;
m_pointers.Add((void*) &m_objects[i]);
}
In my paint function, I just loop through the pointers, cast them and output the value of m_nMember. Like this:
for(int i = 0; i < m_pointers.GetSize(); i++){
int value = ((CMyClass*) m_pointers.GetAt(i))->m_nMember;
//draw value to the screen
}
I'd expect the output to be: 0 1 2 3 4, but it's not; 1 to 4 are always correct, but the first value is always nonsensical.
I was able to solve the problem by using a different initialization:
for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++){
m_objects.Add(CMyClass());
m_objects[i].m_nMember = i;
}
m_pointers.SetSize(m_objects.GetSize());
for(i = 0; i < m_objects.GetSize(); i++){
m_pointers.SetAt(i, (void*) &m_objects[i]);
}
But still I would like to understand why the first approach doesn't work. Anyone have a clue? Is it a bug or something?
Thanks,
Tom

The CArray is a dynamic array. If you add data to it and the currently allocated memory is already full, the storage is reallocated and the data are copied to the new memory (using copy constructors for classes).
Because you have not specified the length of the array in advance, the initial length was only 1 and the array was reallocated before inserting the second item - so your first pointer points to nowhere => it's wrong to use pointers to container data this way.
Also it is good practice to allocate the array using SetSize(), if you know the required size in advance.

You can use the ARP utility.

HI,
Did you have seen some materials or VC++ source code about
CD image file system: ISO or udf ?
Any information or ideas?
Thanks a lot!

Hello ,everyone,
I want to simulate an animal's movement on a specified terrain.
According to the terrain's changement,I can also change the
animal's moving direction and velocity.
Besides,the animal behaves in random on the rerrain.
In the first step.we can just take the animal as one point.
Anyone has any good idea or code example for me?
thanks a lot.

what sort of animals?
flocking behavior? herd movement?
slugs are always nice.
cats would probably be kinda hard-- they go all over.

hi,
I think in the first step,we can simulate a slug's random movement.
All your advices are good.
Do you have any idea?
thank you so much for your quick reply.

The majority of stuff I've seen is heuristic mitigation of plain ol' random walks. (such as modeling ant trails for finding optimum paths instead of using simulated annealing.)
Maybe you are more interested in the AI stuff though that focuses on goals and desired behavior. (The random walk stuff is usually used to further some other goal than modeling the qualitative behavior of an animal.)
Game developer resources/books are probably what you want right?
Or are you just trying to model animal movement as part of an ecological simulation? (that's where the random walk stuff is employed)
In any case, Google is your friend.

take a look at the Terrarium source over at www.gotdotnet.com. for a better approach you will need to dig into some more advanced studies. look here [^]

I created a dialog template using the resource editor, I've change its style to Child and No Border. Now I want to create a class for this template, which inherit from CDialogBar.
The problem is: when use ClassWizard to do this, there is no CDialogBar in the selection for the base class. If I select CDialog there and replace CDialog using CDialogBar manually, later when I want to add any function to my dialogbar class, class wizard will pop those for CDialog.
What do you do? Thanks a lot!

Probably there are 'CDialog' references in MFC-generated code (message map etc). Also, you can delete .clw file - it will be recreated by ClassWizard.
What exactly do you want to override in CYourDialogBar?

For example, I have an edit box in my dialog bar. Some time ago, I have created an edit class which will allow the edit box to accept numbers only.
Now, I want to subclass the CEdit using my CNumEdit.
When the edit box is in a dialog, I do this in OnInitDialog(). Which is what classwizard will point me to. But instead, I should do it in Create() since CDialogBar don't have OnInitDialog().
Maybe I should use the "Class Info" tab of the class Wizard to select "Window" message only, since I know CDialogBar is not dialog, but a CWnd instead.

I belive CDialogBar will get WM_INITDIALOG. Lack of entry in message list in ClassWizard is just a VC IDE problem. You can always add the entry to message map manually - just have a look at some CDialog-derived class in your program.
