As suggested, use Guidgen.

If these concepts are foreign to you, perhaps a simpler project is in order.

Assuming you know what a GUID is, specifically the U part, this question makes no sense.

Run the utility and see what it produces. Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

Use guidgen (among the tools in your VisualStudio Tools Menu, or on your HD among the other VisualStudio tools).
This is - as trivially follows from the phrase "...for your interface..." - YOUR_INTERFACE_GUID.
The same way, you create a guid for your application and use it whereever YOUR_COMPONENT_GUID is asked for.

Yeah, I cud use that VisualStudio Tools Menu Guid utility..But that is for Component of interface?

If it is for interface then how can i generate for Component? Is there any other utility?

Thanks.

Have you even tried it? Everytime you call the tool, you get a unique guid. A different one.
So when asked by the tutorial you are following, you create a guid for the interface.
Later, when asked to create one for the app, you create another one.

Its really that simple.

As others have said, use guidgen. But sometimes your program may need to create them on the fly:

CString GUIDgen()
{
 GUID guid;
 CoCreateGuid(&guid);
 BYTE * str;
 UuidToString((UUID*)&guid, &str);
 
 CString unique((LPTSTR)str);

 RpcStringFree(&str);

 unique.Replace(_T("-"), _T("_"));

 return unique;
}

Hi,

I want to display a report containing four columns and to provide printing option for that. My code is:

<br />
<br />
void CColorView::OnDraw(CDC* pDC)<br />
{<br />
<br />
	CDocumentationDoc* pDoc = GetDocument();<br />
	<br />
	if(pDC -> IsPrinting())<br />
	{<br />
<br />
		pDC -> SetMapMode(MM_ISOTROPIC);<br />
		<br />
		pDC->SetMapMode(MM_ISOTROPIC);<br />
		pDC->SetWindowExt(500, 500);<br />
		pDC->SetViewportExt(4500, 6500);<br />
<br />
	}<br />
<br />
	pDC -> TextOut(30, 10, "COLOR");<br />
	pDC -> TextOut(280, 10, "DEV-TYPE");<br />
	pDC -> TextOut(600, 10, "VALUE");<br />
	pDC -> TextOut(730, 10, "QUANTITY");<br />
<br />
	int xinc = 40, yinc = 20, ytemp = 50;<br />
<br />
	int size = FootPrintArray.GetSize();<br />
<br />
	for(int i = 0; i < size; i++)<br />
	{<br />
<br />
		footprint = (FootPrint*) FootPrintArray.GetAt(i);<br />
<br />
		BYTE red, green, blue;<br />
		<br />
		red = ((BYTE*)(&footprint -> color))[0];<br />
		green = ((BYTE*)(&footprint -> color))[1];<br />
		blue = ((BYTE*)(&footprint -> color))[2];<br />
<br />
		CPen penShadow(PS_SOLID, 1, PALETTERGB(red,green,blue));<br />
		CPen* ppenOld = pDC -> SelectObject(&penShadow);<br />
<br />
		CBrush brCenter;<br />
		brCenter.CreateSolidBrush(PALETTERGB(red,green,blue));<br />
		CBrush* pbrOld = pDC -> SelectObject(&brCenter);<br />
<br />
		int yval = ytemp + (i * yinc);		<br />
<br />
		pDC -> Rectangle(30, yval - 10, 70, yval);<br />
		pDC -> TextOut(100, (yval - 10), footprint -> FtPtName);<br />
		pDC -> TextOut(600, (yval - 10), footprint -> Value);<br />
		pDC -> TextOut(770, (yval - 10), footprint -> Quantity);<br />
<br />
	}	<br />
<br />
	// TODO: add draw code here<br />
<br />
}<br />

It is getting printed now.. i can able to take pdf from my view. But in this the row values of the columns 2 and 3 may vary to any large value at run time. How to calculate and print? Suggest me some ideas.

With Regards,
Sangeetha.

Font of controls in property pages

Hi I have created 2 class derived from CPropertyPage and one class from CPropertySheet.
Font of these 2 dialogs(property pages) are Tahoma (I set it in resource editor), but when run the exe font has been changed to a another font.
I tried SetFont in my propert sheet and propert pages classes but it does NOT change the font!
Please help

I think it must work correctly without any code, just like changing font of a dialog in resource editor, for this you don't need to write any code!
But here is my try :
in my property page and property cheet constructor :
{
m_font.CreateFont(8,
0,
0,
0,
FW_NORMAL,
FALSE,
FALSE,
0,
ARABIC_CHARSET,
OUT_TT_PRECIS,
CLIP_DEFAULT_PRECIS,
DEFAULT_QUALITY,
DEFAULT_PITCH | FF_ROMAN,
_T("Tahoma"));
}

in their OnInitDialog() :

SetFont(&m_font);

but after I compile the project and run the program, the font of propert pages are not Tahoma, I think it's MS Shell Dlg

That may be to late. The Text may have already been drawn.
Try SetFont() in Create() or PreSubclassWindows().

wrong... i once wrote the following code in a OnInitDialog() handler, and the code was working as expected :

//...
CFont* pf = m_staticTransparent.GetFont();
LOGFONT lfLogFont = {0};
pf->GetLogFont(&lfLogFont);
lfLogFont.lfWeight = FW_BOLD;
m_fontBold.CreateFontIndirect(&lfLogFont);
m_staticTransparent.SetFont(&m_fontBold);
//...

You might consider asking your question here as the author would obviously be more familar with the code. Asking the same question 2+ hours later shows little patience on your part.

In any case, why are you not stepping into the DeleteKey() (which is simply a wrapper around RegDeleteKey()) to find out the reason for the failure?

Socket send problem

23-Aug-07 1:31

I am writting a little server ..

And using nob-blocking socket.. my problem is

send(socket,data,sizeof(data),...);
send(socket,data,sizeof(data),...);

This would be no problem for blocking socket .. but since blockign sockets would kill my server..
Data get somehow mixed .. by the recver..

I need something like a check.. to check if data is still sending..

send(socket,data,sizeof(data),...);
if (??DATA_STILL_SEND??)
{
wait bla bla bla..
}
Send(socket,data,sizeof(data),...);

I hope you can help me somehow ~.~
