Re: ON_NOTIFY_RANGE and Textbox's KillFocus

Hi,
Will this Suffice

ON_CONTROL_RANGE(EN_KILLFOCUS,IDC_EDIT1, IDC_EDIT10, OnKillFocus )<br />
//in the message map<br />
 virtual void OnKillFocus (CWnd *pWwd);// in the header

IDC_EDIT1 and IDC_EDIT10 they should have continuous values in the resource.h.

Differnt Ways
You can also try this map the WM_COMMAND and trap the EN_KILLFOCUS or if the edit controls are derived from a common class then trap its WM_CHILDNOTIFY and in that the EN_KILLFOCUS , these are the differnet ways in which you could centralize you code.

FarPointer.

Using ON_CONTROL_RANGE, I could get the things to happen, as per FarPointer's idea.
But the handler should be defined as
" virtual void OnKillFocus (UINT nID) //in the header".

Thanks for the valuable response.

How to set the End of File to a file opened by "fopen" with "r+"

Hi,

How can I set the End Of File of a file which is opened using the fopen in "r+" mode? Is there an equivalent function for "SetEndofFile" to use with fopen and FILE?

If I try to use CFile and its SetFileLength, I am getting the "sharing access violation" error. But no other function is using the file.

Thanks in advance.

I dont think there is any thing called end of file "marker". End of file means that there is no more data in that file.

Were you able to open the file?

Hello.
This is one (AFAIK the only) way to do it:

<code>
FILE *fd = fopen("blabla", "w");

if(_chsize(_fileno(fd), (long) 12345L) == 0) {
//OK
else {
// not OK
}
fclose(fd);
</code>

Before I get flamed for my response:
1.
No, I do not check fd for errors. This is just a code snippet.
2.
Yes, it uses old C functions.

I could do it with _chsize function, as Kakan said.
But the file should be opened in "r+" mode, instead of "w".
I have not known the _fileno function to get the handle from FILE object.

Thanks for the valuable reply.

Hello.

You can change the file size as long as you have the file opened for writing, so "r+" (append) is OK.

The _fileno() function is in the runtime library, so you do have it, for sure. It's declared in stdio.h.
If it's missing, the try using fileno() instead.

Print image to fit the page

Hi.
I'm building an MFC app, and at this time trying to add printing facilities.
What i need to do, is to print the image (all the windows of my app show different images) so that it fits the printing page...i've been trying to find the correct calculation (working on OnPrepareDC) with different page/window/screen measures (GetDeviceCaps(...)), but i don't seem to get it.

The pseudo code of OnPrepareDC:

<br />
SuperView::OnPrepareDC(pDC, pInfo);<br />
if (IsPrinting)<br />
{<br />
pDC->SetMapMode(MM_ANISOTROPIC);<br />
CClientDC dc( this );<br />
//This line could be some transform of the ClientRect (??)<br />
CSize szScreen = dc.GetDeviceCaps(...);<br />
//Set the total size...<br />
pDC->SetWindowExt( szScreen );<br />
<br />
CSize szPage = pDC->GetDeviceCaps(...);<br />
CSize szfinal = SOME_CALCULATIONS(szScreen, szPage);<br />
//Set the viewportsize...<br />
pDC->SetViewportExt( szFinal );<br />
}<br />
...<br />

If someone understood the message, and knows something about it...will save my life.

Thanks,
Alberto

Do a search for RegOpenKey - you will likely find usable examples of how to use the registry-related functions.

Of the top of my head, can't think of a way in C, but in C++ you can simply use some form of static initialiser.

Be warned though, that they can cause problems if not handled correctly. I'd recommend asking yourself if you really need to do this?

1. Get yourself a sledge hammer
2. Take a deep breath
3. Swing the hammer back and give the program (The display, where it is being shown) a merciless blow.
4. The program should have crashed by now.

Big Grin | :-D

This is a code sample

<br />
#include<iostream><br />
using namespace std;<br />
<br />
class GoGoGo<br />
{<br />
  public:<br />
    GoGoGo() <br />
    { <br />
      cout << "This runs first!";<br />
      //put ur code to crash the program here..<br />
    } BeFirst;<br />
}<br />
<br />
int main()<br />
{<br />
  cout << "Main is second :(";<br />
  return 0;<br />
}<br />

Google for interview questions and u will find a lot of stuff. I learned this from google some months back.

You need to declare an instance of class GoGoGo before this will work - i.e.:
