Actually Michael I have read the same info.
I was wondering since my function took DLLVERSIONINFO*
struct and cbSize == sizeof(DLLVERSIONINFO2) how
would I set the new members. Put it this way, is this safe?
Or will it even work?

STDAPI DllGetVersion(DLLVERSIONINFO* pDllInfo)
{
	// DLLVERSIONINFO
	pDllInfo->dwBuildNumber         = BUILD_NUMBER;
	pDllInfo->dwMajorVersion        = MAJOR_NUMBER;
	pDllInfo->dwMinorVersion        = MINOR_NUMBER;
	pDllInfo->dwPlatformID          = PLATFORM_ID;

	if (pDllInfo->cbSize == sizeof(DLLVERSIONINFO2))
	{
		// DLLVERSIONINFO2
		DLLVERSIONINFO2* pDllInfo2 = (DLLVERSIONINFO2*)pDllInfo;
		pDllInfo2->ullVersion = MAKEDLLVERULL(MAJOR_NUMBER,
                                                        MINOR_NUMBER,
							BUILD_NUMBER,
							DLL_SRVPACK);
	}

	return (S_OK);
}

Thank You

If you are doing this in a MFC diaog application. Add Print/print preview support[^].

Get the text from your edit control and use Printing a long CString across multiple pages[^]

Once you have the basic printing working, Further printing tips[^] may be of use.

You've probably got a cpp file without #include "stdafx.h" in it but with precompiled headers selected in the project settings.

Babelfish translated you compile message as: Unexpected file end during the search for the directive for the before-compiled header file.

Not bad Blush | :O

)

It means that the file being compiled does not include 'stdafx.h' which is the pre-compiled header needed. You can either #include 'stdafx.h' at the top of the file, or change you compiling options for this file so that it does not use pre-compiled header.

Hope this helps,

CProgressCtrl problem in long function

IGx8921-Dec-03 9:21

21-Dec-03 9:21

My app (if you play Freelancer, you've probably used it) has a function that takes up to 60 seconds to complete, and updates the current status using a CProgressCtrl. The problem is, sometimes after a little while (usually around half way) the progress control stops updating (even though I'm calling ProgressCtrl.RedrawWindow() every time), thus making the user think my app has stopped responding. Is there any way to get around that problem, without having to go through all the work and trouble of making a separate worker thread?

Re: CProgressCtrl problem in long function

Michael Dunn21-Dec-03 11:40

Yes, don't send as many messages to the control. I once had an app that read in a big database (like 50K records) and sent a msg after every record. It did exactly what you describe. Once I changed it to send a message every few hundred records, it worked perfectly.

Finding out which button has focus

blindcop21-Dec-03 8:22

Hi! I have a list control that I only show when it has the focus. I have done this by having a button that displays the list, and then catch KillFocus on the list to hide it.

If I click on the button again (more of a switch) I want to hide the control. The problem is that the KillFocus event is handled first, so the button thinks the window is hidden so displays it again.

How can I tell which control is getting the focus when I am in my KillFocus event?

Cheers in advance,
Dom

Accurate window sizes

nukenuts21-Dec-03 3:09

21-Dec-03 3:09

I've created an application with a splitter window and
two views. I want both views to have a height of 480 and
widths of 640 and 150 respectively

in the OnSize function of the main frame I have:

void CMainFrame::OnSize(UINT nType, int cx, int cy)
{
CFrameWnd::OnSize(nType, cx, cy);

// Don't adjust the splitters if the application
// is minimized or the splitters have not been
// initialized.
if (m_initSplitters && nType != SIZE_MINIMIZED)
{
// Adjust the row/column info to compensate for
// the new size
m_splitter.SetRowInfo( 0, m_mainViewHeight, 0 );
m_splitter.SetColumnInfo(0, m_mainViewWidth, 0 );
m_splitter.SetColumnInfo(1, m_tileViewWidth, 0 );

// Apply our changes to the splitter
m_splitter.RecalcLayout();
}
}

in the PreCreate function of the main frame I have:

BOOL CMainFrame::PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs)
{
CRect rect(0, 0, 640 + 150, 480);

AdjustWindowRectEx(&rect, cs.style, true, cs.dwExStyle);

cs.cx = rect.right - rect.left;
cs.cy = rect.bottom - rect.top;

if( !CFrameWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs) )
return FALSE;

return TRUE;
}

The height of the splitter is 480. (Used CSplitterWnd::GetClientRect())
However, the heights of the views is 476.

The splitter width is 790.
But the widths of the views are 640(correct) and 139 respectively.

How can I correct the sizes of the view windows?

Then please enlighten anyone witrh the same problem as you. How did you solve it? What was wrong?

"Never mind. I just solved it." will never get you as far as a response the next time you ask a question.

O.K., here's what I did:
I derived a class from CSplitterWnd so I could access the protected members relating to it's border size and the size of the splitter itself. Then in the precreatewindow() of my main frame I used this info to calculate the correct size of my main frame. I also added in the scrollbars sizes.

BOOL CMainFrame::PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs)
{
// Set the size and style of the window
cs.style &= ~WS_MAXIMIZEBOX;
// cs.style &= ~WS_MINIMIZEBOX;
cs.style &= ~WS_THICKFRAME;
cs.style &= ~FWS_ADDTOTITLE;

int totalWidth = m_mapViewWidth +
m_tileViewWidth +
m_splitter.GetSplitterSize().cx +
(m_splitter.GetBorderSize().cx * 2) + (SCROLLBAR_WIDTH*2);

int totalHeight = m_mapViewHeight +
(m_splitter.GetBorderSize().cx * 2) + SCROLLBAR_HEIGHT;

CRect rect(0, 0, totalWidth, totalHeight);

AdjustWindowRectEx(&rect, cs.style, true, cs.dwExStyle);

cs.cx = rect.right - rect.left;
cs.cy = rect.bottom - rect.top;

if( !CFrameWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs) )
return FALSE;

return TRUE;
}
