You're a programmer, right?

Try doing a search on CP. I'm certainly not going to do it (the search) for you.

List box customization..Problem with setting the item Height.

Hi all.
I am trying to customize a List box to load the jpg preview images in it.
I have managed to load all the jpg files in a list box; one below the other from the selected location.
But by default the preview height is 16 pixels. I tried to change it to 200 by following way…
void CListBoxEx::MeasureItem(LPMEASUREITEMSTRUCT lpMeasureItemStruct)
{
lpMeasureItemStruct->itemHeight = 200;
}

but the height is remaining the same (16 pixels).

How can I set the height to the desired pixel amount?

Thanks

Did you create your ListBox with Owner-draw style (LBS_OWNERDRAWVARIABLE)? If not try creating with the style.

Yes I have set the property of "Owner Draw" to "variablr" under style tab.
Also checked the option of "Has String" under it.

In WM_DRAWITEM handler, did you set the property CtlType of DRAWITEMSTRUCT to ODT_LISTBOX?

You can use GetExitCodeThread[^]. If the value returned by the thread is STILL_ACTIVE, then your thread is still running.

I suppose (but it was not clear) that CPingThread is a class that inherits from CWinThread and that it implements the thread function ?
CWinThread has a public member m_hThread (see here[^] ). You can pass this handle to the function (as explained in my previous post)

This is not a good way to check if a thread has exited. Here’s what MSDN has to say on this issue:

Warning: If a thread happens to return STILL_ACTIVE (259) as an error code, applications that test for this value could end up in an infinite loop.

Here's how you do it without such dangers:

if (WaitForSingleObject(hThread, 0)==WAIT_OBJECT_0)
{
	// Thread has exited.
}

Don't forget to close the thread handle when you're done with it.

Open the driver associated with the USB device withe the CreateFile function and then you can use ReadFile or WriteFile to read or write data. You can also use DeviceIOControl to exchange driver specific commands.

What do you mean by mode exactly ? (I don't remember having learned something like that in statistic...)

What kind of data ?

A std::vector ? Or a plain C++ array ?

Also, try to use a relevant title. I don't really see how your question is related to Visual C++ (or, yes, I see but in that case ALL questions could have the same title).

He means this:
Mode (statistics)[^]
If the vector contains discrete values (integers), then the problem is just to find the most commonly occurring value.

I dont think you can use that, but you can give a try.

You can try other things like - make sure you dont have any whitespaces in yout temp/tmp directory names.
- make sure that you dont have any whitespaces in your object(.obj) file names
- make sure you are using link.exe that you think you are using
