Because it's an employee control application.
I want to synchronize the time/date with a server when the app starts and never change it again when I receive the employee's numbers ( by serial port ).
I will have bad performance if I synch. the time everytime I receive data.

on NT4/W2K, XP (Pro?) you can deny the right to set the system date/time to a user.
On XP it's Control Panel / Computer Management (?) / Local Security Policy / Local Policy / User Rights
(I don't have an English XP here, the names may differ...)

It should be on Win 95/98

Hi:
I have created the following class:
class CQrgBond
{
private:
char* _cTicker;
double _fCpn;
int _nCpnFreq;
CQrgDate _dMaturityDate;
CQrgDate _dFirstCpnDate;
long _lAmountOS;
public:
CQrgBond( );
CQrgBond( char* cTicker, double fCpn, int nCpnFreq,
char* cMaturityDate, char* cFirstCpnDate,
long lAmountOS );
~CQrgBond();
}
I have created a constructor that can accept multiple arguments, but I am having troubles with creating an assignment operator with multiple arguments on the right hand side. My code doesn't work:
const CQrgBond& operator = ( { char* cTicker, double fCpn, int nCpnFreq,
char* cMaturityDate, char* cFirstCpnDate,
long lAmountOS } );
The error message is binary 'operator =' has too many parameters.
Ideally what I want to do it to have
CQrgBond m = { "Bond", 5.5, ... };
in addition to
CQrgBond m( "Bond", 5.5, ... );
Is this possible?
Any tips are appreciated.

No, what you have to do is
CQrgBond m = CQrgBond (....whatever);
Make sure you define a copy operator.

Not with that class. The only time the array-style assignment syntax works is if you have a struct/class with all public members and no constructor, such as:
struct CFoo
{
int x;
char y;
};
CFoo foo = { 1, 'a' };

I have an AVI file playing on a dialog box. One of our users runs large fonts under Windows XP and we're seeing a darker gray area on the back of the dialog box. It kind of looks like this:
=====
=====
=====================
=====================
...where the === is the color that doesn't match the dialog background. The AVI file itself is being painted correctly.
I create the control in my WM_INITDIALOG routines (this is all Win32...no MFC) using the following code:
<br />
hAnim = CreateAnimationCtrl(hDlg, IDC_ANIMATE);<br />
Animate_Play(hAnim, 0, -1, -1); <br />
The CreateAnimationCtrl routine I got from MSDN and is defined as:
<br />
HWND CreateAnimationCtrl(HWND hwndDlg, int nIDCtl) <br />
{ <br />
HWND hwndAnim = NULL; <br />
RECT rc; <br />
POINT pt; <br />
<br />
hwndAnim = Animate_Create(hwndDlg, IDC_ANIMATE, WS_CHILD | ACS_TRANSPARENT, ghInst); <br />
<br />
GetWindowRect(GetDlgItem(hwndDlg, nIDCtl), &rc); <br />
<br />
pt.x = rc.left; <br />
pt.y = rc.top;<br />
ScreenToClient(hwndDlg, &pt); <br />
<br />
SetWindowPos(hwndAnim, 0, pt.x, pt.y, 149, 25, <br />
SWP_NOZORDER | SWP_DRAWFRAME); <br />
<br />
Animate_Open(hwndAnim, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_AVI)); <br />
ShowWindow(hwndAnim, SW_SHOW); <br />
RedrawWindow(hwndAnim, NULL, NULL, RDW_INVALIDATE | RDW_ERASE | RDW_UPDATENOW | RDW_ALLCHILDREN);<br />
<br />
return hwndAnim; <br />
} <br />
In order to create a "transparent" AVI file, I use the following in my WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC call:
<br />
hdc = (HDC)wParam;<br />
dwColor = GetSysColor(COLOR_BTNFACE);<br />
SetBkColor(hdc, dwColor); <br />
UpdateWindow(hAnim);<br />
I don't currently have the transparent flags set for the animation control, but I have and that didn't help.
I don't know what's going on. She changed to large fonts, but kept the color choices the same. We both have XP and the same machines (as well as video drivers, etc.) I don't have any other controls on the dialog such as statics, etc. Mine works fine and hers doesn't.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
could you please download this:
http://home.tiscali.de/reichl/download/resysinfo_setup.exe[^]
and tell me if it's working or not?
I tested it on Win95/Win98/WinME/Win2k/WinXP and WinNT 5.0.
But a system information viewer must be tested on many different
system configurations before releasing it to the "user public".
Thank you

I gave it a quick run through on my WinXP Home box and everything I tried worked as expected.

WinNT 5.0? 
That's what Win2k was called before it changed name, just before Beta 2, to Windows 2000.

If I run my project in with the button that stops it at a breakpoint, (and out in NO breakpoints), the UI comes up with a controlk enabled. If I run this same with the ! the control comes up disabled. How can this be? How do I track this down?
Appreciate your help,

So you're saying that when you run it with the debugger, a control in your dialog box is enabled, and when you run it without the debugger, the same control is disabled?

I have a VC++ 6.0 compiler at home. I was able to make a MDI application
quite easily. When I create a new project my VC++ 6.0 I have at home
allows me to choose what type of software I am going to create (MDI, DLL,
console etc.) It also has a class wizard which generates code for me.

Hi!
The listbox attached to a CComboBox is always displayed on top of and nerver clipped by the parent window. Is this possible to accomplish with other controls, like an ordinary CListBox (like IntellSense), and if so, how do you do it? I've tried setting the style WS_EX_TOPMOST, but it doesn't seem to stick on a CListBox control...
Thanks
There are no facts, only interpretations

|

The list box that's part of the combo box has no parent (well, maybe the desktop). It has the style WS_POPUP.

I have a class with several members> Theres a deque of these CImage objects:
std::deque<CImage> myObj. At one place in my code I need a deque of a finite size n, which is loaded with n null CImage objects.
How do I make a null object? Just push_back ing (0) doesnt compile. SO do I need to do:
CImage myIMage = new CImage;
myImage.attributeA = 0;
myImage.ATtributeB = 0;
..
etc?
then do
for (int i = 0; i <n; i++)
myDeque.pushback(myImage);
delete myImage;
Appreciate your help,

You need to store CImage pointers in the deque instead of CImage objects.
e.g. std::deque<CImage*> myObj;
Then you can store null pointers inside the deque as well as created CImage objects.

Or add an IsValid() method to your CImage object.

My problem is with pre-build events. I have a custom resource compiler that receives as input a directory name, then it compiles all custom resource files in that directory and generate a header (if different from the previous version). So I want my visual studio to ALWAYS run that command line, don't matter if it thinks the project is up to date... I've tried several things, but nothing works properly. The pre-build event never works right because it thinks the project is up-to-date and don't execute the pre-build.
Any help would be great on that

I can only recommend a sneaky solution:
1. Change the date of your computer to some time in the far future, say two years from now.
2. Take a source file (from the project) that you never change, open it, save it, and make it read-only.
3. Reset the date of your computer.
Now when you build your project, that file will always be recompiled, and your pre-build stuff should work.

Alvaro
