Hello all,
I tried remote debuging in VC6.0 with an NT machine as host (source code) and an 2000 machine as remote. Everything worked well except breakpoints. I couldn't set breakpoints.
What I was trying to debug is a DLL running form an executable for which I don't have source code or PDBs.
Any ideas on how to solve this?
Thanks in advance.

I am trying to use text in a PaintShop Pro or PhotoShop type application. Does any body have any ideas on how to do this. I am specifically interested in ideas about how you let the user manipulate the text object. For example the user can stretch the text object in either direction, or rotate the text or...
I have started working on 2 solutions. The first is when I create a text object given a font name, font size, color and attributes (bold, italic...) I put it into a rich text control and grab the bitmap that is generated by the rich text control. Then stretching or rotating the text is basically stretchBlting or rotating a bitmap. This works well but looses quality (especially when printing).
The sceond solution is when I create a text object given a font name, font size, color and attributes (bold, italic...) I create a logical font, using the LOGFONT structure. This gives rotation by creating the font rotated. It also gives great quality when printing. But this causes problems with stretching. I have not gotten this approach to stretch into long or heigh text.
OK, does anybody have any recomemdations about these approaches? Or another approach?
Thanks for any advice!

Hi,
The .dsp and .dsw files are rather easy to understand
but doesn't anyone know where I can find an official
description of the format of VS project and workspaces ?
Thanks!

ouch ... I asked about this recently ... Chris Richardson and Neville Franks provided a lot of help (particularly since I was looking at using the VS Interface to do this - they persuaded me not to .. this applies more to VC6 by the way, the interface is better in VC7)
have a look at http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/IncludeFinder.asp[^]
From Chris >> "The classes you may be interested in will be in DSObjects.h, DSObjects.cpp, VC6Objects.h, and VC6Objects.cpp"
I do have some info I found on using the automation interface - 1 or 2 artciles from the web, but havnt analysed them thoroughly yet - reply back if you want me to dig them out (may take a day or so) ...
cheers, Garth

Hello all,
Suppose I want my application can edit a .doc file, so I decide to embed a MS Word ActiveX control into my app. Unfortunately, I can't find one. I only find SpreadSheet ActiveX control comes from Microsoft.
Anyone can give me a way to embed a MS Word into my application?
Thank you very much for your help.

Hi, me again
I am trying to write a program that loops an input until the escape key is pressed. But how do you put a single char into the input buffer so when the program requests a input the char will be displayed and removable by backspace key? Below is the basic what I have come so far but the problem is that “cin.putback(c);” does neither display the char “c” nor is it removable for the user, when pressing backspace key. I could add “cout << c;” but that only solves one problem, what do I need to do to make the char editable/removable for user when inputing?
char c;
while (1) {
c = getch();
switch (c) {
case 27: // Escape key is pressed
return 0;
case 13: // Enter key is pressed
//...
break;
default: // Some other key is pressed
cin.putback(c);
// Place char c into the input buffer,
// but it won't be displayed nor editable when input requested.
cin.getline(Text, 256);
// request input from user,
// the char c will be included in Text when user has finished input.
//...
}
}

Hi,
I am using the winldap.h API to query Active Directory for a binary field called objectGUID. I am trying to use the ldap_get_values_len function to do this but am having a few problems. I need to retrieve the data and convert it into base64. I have some example conversion functions but none of them deal with the result from ldap_get_value_len function.
Does anyone have any code that does something similar or can anyone suggest a solution.
thanks

Hi!!
A program allocated memory from heap using new, something like this
int * a = new int[20];
i.e program created ten int objects using heap. Later in the program suppose we only require first ten of these while other are found useless, then how can we delete the objects from int[10] to int[19]
|
|
|
|
|
I dunno if you can delete the last 10 only, but the safest bet is to make a new int[10] and copy the 10 you want into it. Easier, just use std::vector instead.

Hi..
I think it's not possible using new , delete
use malloc , realloc , free stuff to make it (include stdlib.h and malloc.h)or use STL or make a linked list instead of using arrays
|
|
|
|
|
A linked list will have completely different behaviour to a vector/self rolled array wrapper. You need to be careful that this is the sort of behaviour you want ( fast insert, slow lookup )

Hi, all
How do you print a text to the right side of a console line? In other words how do you print right aligned text in a console? I do not want to use Windows console function because this process should also work in ms-dos.

If you assume that each row is 80 columns wide, then pad each row with spaces at the beginning to get the right-aligned effect.

but how does this work when the screen size is changed, wich can be done in XP/2000?
And when I try to compile this with VC++ it says:
: error C2065: 'setw' : undeclared identifier
What besides iostream.h do I need to include?

OK, I think its time we have a discussion about Microsoft's UI as it relates to its new controls in XP. If you were to go Start->ControlPanel you will note a nice collapsable bar on the left side, and a clean right side with a faint image in the background.
The left side bar has kinda been covered on CodeProject in articles:
http://www.codeproject.com/miscctrl/jobwnd.asp#xx395129xx[^]
http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/MenuWithDescription.asp[^]
and
http://www.codeproject.com/cs/miscctrl/collapsiblepanelbar.asp[^]
The last one is by far my favorite, as Derek really did a good job on the look, theming etc. Of course... its in C# which doesn't help me.
Anyways, in my quest to learn more of using these new UI features in XP and the future Windows Server 2003, I am finding it difficult to get the right TERMINOLOGY on what the controls are actually officially CALLED. And I still can't fathem why these controls are NOT accessable programatically to us.
So, would anyone like to start a discussion on:
a) What is the official name of the control on the left side on the Control Panel window? Is there an actual control we can use/get access to?
b) What is the official name of the control on the right side? (Please don't guess and say its just an IE window... Windows Spy isn't able to say everything about the darn thing) If it is simply an HTML control... that is an interesting way to deal with colors and the background. Anyone actually do this themselves?
c) Does anyone have any MSDN references to these controls?
There has been some hacks at this, and I think Derek got the closest. But I wonder why we need to reinvent the wheel here. Is that supposed to be a standard widget in XP? If so... why isn't there any info in VS .NET about it. If it isn't, why not?
I can't justify another MSDN incident to call MS to try to find this out, in case I get another "sorry that information is not available" as I have been getting lately on other things.
This topic seems to be an interesting point for discussion. Anyone like to throw the first electrons into the pot?

Hi,
Does anybody know if there is an easy way to assign a shortcut key to a menu item, and if there isn't an easy way, is there a way that doesn't go through PreTranslateMessage function?
