You can use CreateFile to open an existing file with without Sharing. i.e. passing dwShareMode of CreateFile()[^] as zero.
Or you can open a file using OpenFile()[^] by passing 'OF_SHARE_DENY_READ |OF_SHARE_DENY_WRITE' to deny sharing.

[LockFile] locks the second file to prevent another process from accessing it while writing to it.
Sample code:
#include <windows.h>
#include <stdio.h>
void main()
{
HANDLE hFile;
HANDLE hAppend;
DWORD dwBytesRead, dwBytesWritten, dwPos;
BYTE buff[4096];
char DataBuffer[] = "This is some test data to write to the file.";
DWORD dwBytesToWrite = (DWORD)strlen(DataBuffer);
BOOL bErrorFlag = FALSE;
hFile = CreateFile(TEXT("one.txt"),
GENERIC_READ,
0,
NULL,
CREATE_ALWAYS,
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,
NULL);
if (hFile == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{
printf("Could not open One.txt.");
return;
}
bErrorFlag = WriteFile(
hFile,
DataBuffer,
dwBytesToWrite,
&dwBytesWritten,
NULL);
hAppend = CreateFile(TEXT("two.txt"),
FILE_APPEND_DATA,
FILE_SHARE_READ,
NULL,
CREATE_ALWAYS,
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,
NULL);
if (hAppend == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{
printf("Could not open Two.txt.");
return;
}
while (ReadFile(hFile, buff, sizeof(buff), &dwBytesRead, NULL)
&& dwBytesRead > 0)
{
dwPos = SetFilePointer(hAppend, 0, NULL, FILE_END);
LockFile(hAppend, dwPos, 0, dwBytesRead, 0);
WriteFile(hAppend, buff, dwBytesRead, &dwBytesWritten, NULL);
UnlockFile(hAppend, dwPos, 0, dwBytesRead, 0);
}
CloseHandle(hFile);
CloseHandle(hAppend);
}

hello guys. I want to have a list of all the installed programs.
More specifically, I want to know how many voice messangers ( or programs with the capability of voip: like yahoo messanger) are installed on my system.
Can your suggested answer be applied to other type of softwares (like getting names of windows media player and Cyberlink Power Player).
Thanks for any answers or pointer (even a void one, I will cast it accordingly ) on this.
This world is going to explode due to international politics, SOON.

Hello,
Stuck on a Microsoft drawing problem: The brush I'm using to draw text is being ignored, and SelectObject () returns NULL when I try to select it into a device context:
HFONT hFont = CreateFontIndirect(& logFont);
HFONT oldFont = (HFONT) SelectObject (hDc, hFont);
HBRUSH oldBrush = (HBRUSH) SelectObject (hDc, hbrush);
TextOut (hDc, 0, 0, fontName, wcslen (fontName));
The brush comes from the nativeBrush member of a .NET System.Drawing.Brush, which works correctly both before and after this.
I've tried using DrawText () instead, with the same result. Can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong? Thanks!

Brushes are used to fill the interior of filled shapes. They are not used to draw text.
TextOut() and DrawText() use the text and background colors currently selected by the device context. These can be set using SetTextColor() and SetBkColor() .
SelectObject() returns the object that is going to be replaced. This may be NULL if there is actually no such object selected into the device context. It is not an error condition. The return value is usally used to restore the old state after drawing has been done.

Hmm... I'm using the same brush to draw text in the .NET half of the application. These are complex patterns (linear gradient and hatch brushes), and the text correctly appears with these textures in GDI+/.NET.
I'm using GDI (no plus) in this part because GDI+ doesn't support OpenType or PostScript fonts (only TrueType).
So how can these patterns be used in text under GDI?

I'm sorry, I don't think that there is a solution with GDI.

Thanks for the input!

Yeah, it shouldn't be a problem to do what you're asking for.
You need to make use of _both_ TextOut and Paths.
Basically, the process goes like this (sorry code is in a PDF ebook that prevents copy and paste)
1. Create your font
2. Select it into your hdc
3. Call BeginPath(hdc)
4. Call TextOut
5. Call EndPath
6. Use StrokePath for the outline, FillPath for the interior.
7. Select the old font back into the hdc
8. delete your font from #1
Ah! found a CHM version of the same book. Here's the code given there:
(I'll leave it as, unedited, for completeness)
void PaintRoutine (HWND hwnd, HDC hdc, int cxArea, int cyArea)
{
static TCHAR szString [] = TEXT ("Filling") ;
HFONT hFont ;
SIZE size ;
hFont = EzCreateFont (hdc, TEXT ("Times New Roman"), 1440, 0, 0, TRUE) ;
SelectObject (hdc, hFont) ;
SetBkMode (hdc, TRANSPARENT) ;
GetTextExtentPoint32 (hdc, szString, lstrlen (szString), &size) ;
BeginPath (hdc) ;
TextOut (hdc, (cxArea - size.cx) / 2, (cyArea - size.cy) / 2,
szString, lstrlen (szString)) ;
EndPath (hdc) ;
SelectObject (hdc, CreateHatchBrush (HS_DIAGCROSS, RGB (255, 0, 0))) ;
SetBkColor (hdc, RGB (0, 0, 255)) ;
SetBkMode (hdc, OPAQUE) ;
StrokeAndFillPath (hdc) ;
DeleteObject (SelectObject (hdc, GetStockObject (WHITE_BRUSH))) ;
SelectObject (hdc, GetStockObject (SYSTEM_FONT)) ;
DeleteObject (hFont) ;
}
Make it work. Then do it better - Andrei Straut

Wow, that's some fancy coding! People elsewhere are saying it's impossible. Thanks enhzflep!

You're welcome
Yeah, Charles Pretzold always was a smart cookie.
I'm so glad that I remembered having read a section in his books about the topic.

Hi enhzflep,
I incorporated code from your example into my function, and it works with the CreateHatchBrush call to create a new brush.
Unfortunately, when I substitute my already-created brush, it doesn't work; I just get solid white filling the text outlines.
I've verified the brush handle is the same as the nativeBrush member of my .NET Brush, which draws correctly both before and after. Can you see anything I'm doing wrong?
DLLEXPORT void drawWithGdiFont (HBITMAP hBitmap, HBRUSH hbrush, LPCWSTR fontName,
LPCWSTR text, int sizeToUse, bool bold, bool italic, int br, int bg, int bb)
{
HDC hDc = CreateCompatibleDC (NULL);
HGDIOBJ oldObj = SelectObject (hDc, hBitmap);
SIZE size ;
LOGFONT logFont;
::ZeroMemory(& logFont, sizeof(LOGFONT));
wcscpy ((&logFont)->lfFaceName, fontName);
logFont.lfHeight = sizeToUse;
if (bold)
logFont.lfWeight = 800;
else
logFont.lfWeight = 500;
logFont.lfItalic = italic;
HFONT hFont = CreateFontIndirect(& logFont);
HFONT oldFont = (HFONT) SelectObject (hDc, hFont);
SetBkMode (hDc, TRANSPARENT) ;
BeginPath (hDc) ;
TextOut (hDc, 0, 0, fontName, wcslen (fontName));
EndPath (hDc) ;
HBRUSH oldBrush = (HBRUSH) SelectObject (hDc, hbrush);
SetBkColor (hDc, RGB (br, bg, bb));
SetBkMode (hDc, OPAQUE) ;
StrokeAndFillPath (hDc) ;
DeleteObject (SelectObject (hDc, oldFont));
SelectObject (hDc, oldBrush);
DeleteObject (hDc);
}
Also, it seems like the background color here is the second color of the hatch pattern. But how do I set the color between the letters (which is also called the "background color"?)
Thanks!
Alan

Hi,
I am developing a file download utility using MFC. The application downloads a simple file over the internet. During download, is there a way to detect if the network connectivity is lost? Because the CHttpFile->Read function doesn't exit if the connection isn't lost.

Sorry. That was a typo. What you said is right. I found a solution for this by setting a timeout using the CInternetSession class.
However I have ended up with another similar problem. I am reading a file over the network drive using CFIle class. Now if the network drive access is lost (due to any reason) can we get to know this. The read() function continues without breaking. How can this be solved?? Please help...

I give some code :
BOOL CYourDoc::DownloadFile(CString sAddress, CString& sResult)
{
CString sTemp;
BOOL bRet = FALSE;
CInternetSession ISession;
CInternetFile* pIFile = NULL;
CMainFrame* pFrame = (CMainFrame*)AfxGetMainWnd();
try
{
pIFile = (CInternetFile*)ISession.OpenURL(sAddress);
while(pIFile->ReadString(sTemp))sResult += sTemp;
bRet = TRUE;
}
catch(CException* pException)
{
pException->GetErrorMessage(sTemp.GetBuffer(255),255);
sTemp.ReleaseBuffer();
pException->Delete();
pFrame->SetMessageText(sTemp);
}
if(pIFile)
{
pIFile->Close();
delete pIFile;
}
ISession.Close();
return bRet;
}
I this code, when something happened, throw an exception, there you can do whatever you want ... I hope this help you ...

Hello Friends
I am creating a application in which I am saving a image as bmp using BITMAPINFOHEADER.
But this structure' height/Width variable is saving image size in Pixels and that i coming fine If i check in Photoshop. But Its Document size[height and width in inches] is not coming fine.As its resolution is by default 72.
And then this Document size is not matching up with mine application ht/width in inches.
Is there any other member varible of BITMAPINFOHEADER structure where I can directly set image size[ht/wd] in inches?
Or any other way So that i can get actual size of image If i open it in some image viewer?
Regards
Yogesh Sikri

Check out the biXPelsPerMeter and biYPelsPerMeter members that are in pixels/meter units: BITMAPINFOHEADER[^].
|
|
|
|
|
Now,I setted it value to 0x0ec4. and Image size in Inches are coming fine when I look in photoshop. Thanks A Lot.
But,its coming fine for bmp and tiff.For tga ,its coming default res 72.
Any Idea?
Regards
Yogesh

Hi
What is the best way to create an edit box (derived from CEdit) that can draw a red line under wrong words for example. and then user can right click on it and correct it from a sugested menu list. (Like what visual assist does in Visual Studio)
Doing it insdie OnPaint() is not easy because we must take care of single or multi line, and maybe some other thing.
An example or project will help a lot.
Regards

Have you think to use CRichEditCtrl instead of CEdit ?
