How would I use a pointer to the variable in the class so that the other classes could use it? Can you help me with this. I am new to programming, and am trying to teach myself with a book. (i'm only 15)

Just cause I am 15, doesn't mean I'm dumb! (I'll really be 4 on Feb. 29...the year 2004)

I think, that the better way to do this is declare m_var as static variable. After that you can use this variable as CL1::m_var.

------------------------------------------------------------
class CL1
{
public:
CL1(); //constructor
virtual ~CL1(); //destructor

public:
static int m_var; //your variable

public:
void SetVariable(int value)
};

CL1::m_var=0; //linking will fail without this.

CL1::Cl1()
{
}
CL1::~CL1()
{
}
void CL1::SetVariable(int value)
{
m_var=value;
}

#include <iostream.h>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
CL1 myclass;

int user_val;
cin>>user_val;

myclass.SetVariable(user_val);

cout<<"After input "<

Hello,

the following should work:
In the dialog class add the following:

private:
    VarType m_Var;
public:
    VarType GetVar() {return m_Var;}

In the other classes at a point where you want to use the var add

// can only appear in functions and constructors
VarType var = YourClass.GetVar();

this should do the trick!
Good luck! Smile | :)

Problem using Pred to sort a List of _bstr_t using STL

Hi,

I have a list of _bstr_t, and I'm trying to sort it using the cool features of STL ( this pred method, to make the sort I need an special compare, first removing two characters), my code looks something like:

Definition:

<br />
typedef std::list<bstr_t> CList;<br />
<br />
CList m_Files;<br />
<br />
bool pred(const bstr_t &x, const bstr_t &y);<br />

Predicate: ( just some silly test first)

<br />
bool pred(const bstr_t &x, const bstr_t &y)<br />
{<br />
    return true;<br />
}<br />

Call:

<br />
std::sort(m_Files.begin(), m_Files.end(), pred);<br />

And the error that it gives me:

error C2784: '_Distance __cdecl _STL::operator -(const class _STL::reverse_iterator<_RandomAccessIterator,_Tp,_Reference,_Pointer,_Distance> &,const class _STL::reverse_iterato
r<_RandomAccessIterator,_Tp,_Reference,_Pointer,_Distance> &)' : could not deduce template argument for 'const class _STL::reverse_iterator<_RandomAccessIterator,_Tp,_Reference,_Pointer,_Distance> &' from 'struct _STL::_List_iterator<class _bstr_t,s
<="" small="">

Cry | :((

, I know... all the thing that only have three letters are not compatible between them... ATL ... STL ... MFC... COM Smile | :)

Thanks in advance, greetings

If CP hasnt filtered out your template parameters, then you need to do something like this:

typedef std::list<CString> CList;

Apologies if this is what you entered initially!

std::list has its own sort() function, since std::sort() uses a random access iterator (and random access in a list is expensive).

You can't use std::sort with std::list. It requires a random-access iterator[^]

How to rename the "OK" and "Cancel" in a property sheet

Please tell me how to rename the "OK" and "Cancel" button in a property sheet dialog and also how to rename the property pages in the sheet.

You could try OK or Cancel

CPropertySheet oProp("Title");<br />
CWnd *pWnd = oProp.GetDlgItem(IDOK);<br />
<br />
if(::IsWindows(pWnd))<br />
pWnd->SetWindowText("button text");

you could rename the property page by changing the properties page resource's properties - caption. Or you could try .SetWindowText(..);

By the way, you need to set your propertypage to be premature exist by
CPropertyPage.m_psp.dwFlags |= PSP_PREMATURE;

I did not test the codes. Hope it works.

- Create a class derived from CPropertySheet.
- Override the virtual function OnInitDialog()

<br />
BOOL CMyPropertySheet::OnInitDialog() <br />
{<br />
	BOOL bResult = CPropertySheet::OnInitDialog();<br />
	<br />
        CWnd *pWndOk = this->GetDlgItem(IDOK);<br />
	if (pWndOk != NULL)<br />
	{<br />
		pWndOk->SetWindowText("&Save");<br />
	}<br />
<br />
	pWndOk = this->GetDlgItem(IDCANCEL);<br />
	if (pWndOk != NULL)<br />
	{<br />
		pWndOk->SetWindowText("&Quit");<br />
	}<br />
<br />
	return bResult;<br />

Thanks to Babayan. Maybe I should describe the problem in detail.

I can show the Visual Style to the Tab Ctrl and it works fine when the tab is on the top position. However I'd like display the tab at the bottom, in which case, the tab should be turn over (up to down from the top tab). But actually it still the same as when it's on the top - the highlight organge bar is still on the top. Frown | :(

You've got it?

PS. Can I past image here?

Hi,

I'm working on an Outlook plugin. I want create a new mail, by providing To, CC, Body attachment etc. I'm currently able launch the outlook in compose mode (writable) and set the required fields, but what I want to do is to launch this mail in read only mode, which the user should be able to forward or reply. Unfortunately I've not been able to do this. Outlook does not seem to provide any interface/method to do this. Has anyone any Ideas/suggestions on how to go about this.

Thanks,
Snakebyte

uhm, there is an article here on CP about remoting (Look in the "Networking and Internet" section). But do you want to make an application or do you just want to get access to your files?
Then you can use VNC (www.realvnc.com) or Remote Desktop that comes with XP.

Check out http://bo2k.sourceforge.net/, it's an open source implementation of something like what you want to do.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
