Re: Visual C++ Help hangs Mark Terrano30-Jul-01 14:42 Mark Terrano 30-Jul-01 14:42  Same here. One time after a crash this behavior started and my only remedy was to reinstall MSDN. After which everything worked fine (I did try recreating my project dynamic files, etc). --Mark Terrano www.ensemblestudios.com (Creators of the Age of Empires series) Shell Namespace Extension ov19-Jul-01 5:47 ov 19-Jul-01 5:47  I'm writing an extension to windows shell. It was placed to the "My Computer" and have created some subfolders (my hierarchy). Explorer is showing all of them and I have no problem with it. But when I'm opening notepad and try to open a file from my extension (or just browse through it) - there is no my extension at all in the CFileDialog window. How can I implement such feature? I've started to think about DDK, but I don't think that My Documents folder was created via DDK, but it is accessible from the standart save/open file dialogs. How can I do the same? With the best regards, Vitaly. Re: Shell Namespace Extension 19-Jul-01 9:30 19-Jul-01 9:30  There is a KB article describing what you have to do to get your NSE to show up in the common file dialog. Dont have a link to it where i am, but try searching for it. (you will not get that many hits if you search on "namespace extension") The bad news is that i will only work on win 2000 and newer systems. (without some serious "hacking" with yor NSE) Undo + RichEdit + Syntax Hihglighting Joan M19-Jul-01 5:13 Joan M 19-Jul-01 5:13  Hello, I have found a class that has allowed me to make a syntax highligthing editor in a very easy way, it works very fine excepting the fact that it has not tha capability of undo what has been done. I would like to know if there is any way of keeping the undo buffer unaltered when the RichEditCtrl is being "colorized". Or how should I do in order to make my own undo buffer. As always thank you very much. CRicheditCtrl in WTL 19-Jul-01 5:05 19-Jul-01 5:05  Ok, I tried to place a Rich Edit Ctrl on a Dialog in the Resource editor for my WTL app. When I run the app the dialog can no longer be created. I had to add an initialization for the IP Address control to get that to work. Is there something I need to do to get Rich Edit controls to work in a WTL app? Please Help Me Re: CRicheditCtrl in WTL Bjarke Viksoe19-Jul-01 6:08 Bjarke Viksoe 19-Jul-01 6:08  Yes, you need to load the rtf dll to use... So in your tWinMain()... HINSTANCE hInstRich = ::LoadLibrary(CRichEditCtrl::GetLibraryName()); ... int nRet = Run(lpstrCmdLine, nCmdShow); ... ::FreeLibrary(hInstRich); Use the define in stdafx.h to detemine rtf verion... #define _RICHEDIT_VER 0x0200 Have a look at my website below. Lots of nice WTL samples there.

SendMail.exe is a command line application that sends mail to the e-mail specified. SendMail.exe does some processing before sending the mail. This processing will fail if more than one instance of my application tries to do the same. Hence I create a mutex (during installation of my application) so that only one instance is doing the processing. So the sequence of operation in SendMail.exe will be : 1) Wait for the mutex 2) Obtain the mutex, do the processing 3) Release the mutex REQUIREMENT : Suppose 4 SendMail.exes are launched. I want these exes to do the processing in the SAME ORDER as they were launched. For e.g. the processing should be done in the following sequence : 1) SendMail1.exe 2) SendMail2.exe 3) SendMail3.exe 4) SendMail4.exe PROBLEM : Using a mutex, this sequencing is NOT possible. Mutex usage only ensures that all the applications waiting for it will get it but the ORDER in which they will get is not known. Could anyone tell me how to achieve my requirement. Any idea is welcome. Thanking you in advance. Have a nice day. With best regards Rama Siemens Re: Sequence exes 19-Jul-01 4:57 19-Jul-01 4:57  You could use the regisry to store a kind of queue. when sendmail.exe recieves the mutex, check to see if it is next in the queue, if it is then do processing and remove queue entry, if it isn't then release the mutex so another task gets it. it does seem a particularly wierd thing to want to do though. Re: Sequence exes Tomasz Sowinski19-Jul-01 5:02 Tomasz Sowinski 19-Jul-01 5:02  Can't you just acquire and release the mutex in the process that launches sendmail.exe? Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com The semantics of CSplitterWnd::OnDrawSplitter? Tommy H D Svensson19-Jul-01 4:08 Tommy H D Svensson 19-Jul-01 4:08  Does anyone actually know what and how the undocumented OnDrawSplitter works...? Cause this is a case I'm dealing with: If I in a four view splitter window create four CTestView objects which only put a string on the pDC with TextOut, these views turn out great! And that's even after overriding OnDrawSplitter. Exactly as it should be. But I have another more complex View I want to apply the same splitter on and then it doesn't work. What happens is that this complex view sort of lays on top of the neat stuff that OnDrawSplitter just performed. /Tommy Re: The semantics of CSplitterWnd::OnDrawSplitter? Tomasz Sowinski19-Jul-01 4:25 Tomasz Sowinski 19-Jul-01 4:25  Does the complex view work OK when you do not override OnDrawSplitter? Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com Re: The semantics of CSplitterWnd::OnDrawSplitter? Tommy H D Svensson19-Jul-01 4:53 Tommy H D Svensson 19-Jul-01 4:53  The thing is that when using the complex view it seems like my OnDrawSplitter is totally ignored... like it's being bypassed. But I'm not even calling the CSplitterWnd::OnDrawSplitter from my OnDrawSplitter. Re: The semantics of CSplitterWnd::OnDrawSplitter? Tomasz Sowinski19-Jul-01 5:00 Tomasz Sowinski 19-Jul-01 5:00  You should ensure first if this is the problem with complex view or your own OnDrawSplitter. Just comment out your OnDrawSplitter - if everything works OK, then it's a problem with your implementation of OnDrawSplitter. If view still looks bad, that's the view problem. Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com Re: The semantics of CSplitterWnd::OnDrawSplitter? Tommy H D Svensson19-Jul-01 5:09 Tommy H D Svensson 19-Jul-01 5:09  Here it is: The complex view inside a splitter pane never looks "bad". It's just that the splitter borders are the default ones. And they're the default ones on the splitter view pane no matter if I use my own OnDrawSplitter or not. When using my OnDrawSplitter my simple TestViews seems fine... But maybe you're right, it could be the complex view's fault. How do splitter depend on window styles? Tommy H D Svensson19-Jul-01 4:00 Tommy H D Svensson 19-Jul-01 4:00  Hi all, I can override the window settings in my frame class' PreCreateWindow function. Butdoes anyone know how these settings affect the fact that I'm using splitter windows? Can I not have a 3D style and still use splitters? Anyway, I get a lot of strange debug errors when setting different style values. Every time line 414 in winsplitt.cpp bugs out. Anyone got a clue...? /Tommy Re: How do splitter depend on window styles? Tomasz Sowinski19-Jul-01 4:10 Tomasz Sowinski 19-Jul-01 4:10  On my machine line 414 has the following assertion: ASSERT(cyIdeal >= 0); It doesn't look like window styles have something to do with it. Or maybe you have different service pack installed (mine is SP5)? Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com Re: How do splitter depend on window styles? Tommy H D Svensson19-Jul-01 4:51 Tommy H D Svensson 19-Jul-01 4:51  But maybe it has! What happens if you do not have a 3D style window is probably that there is an error in calculating the pixels for borders that are not there and maybe that's why you can't use splitters in a certain way when having a ??? style. Re: How do splitter depend on window styles? Tomasz Sowinski19-Jul-01 4:57 Tomasz Sowinski 19-Jul-01 4:57  You didn't answer my question: is assertion you're getting inside CSplitterWnd::SetRowInfo? Greping over mfc\src and mfc\include shows that SetRowInfo isn't called by MFC. Have a look at stack after assert and you should see who's calling SetRowInfo with invalid cyIdeal. Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com Re: How do splitter depend on window styles? Tommy H D Svensson19-Jul-01 5:06 Tommy H D Svensson 19-Jul-01 5:06  Hi again and thx for helping out, How to see what SP I have? How can I detect what and who makes the call to SetRowInfo? Re: How do splitter depend on window styles? Tomasz Sowinski19-Jul-01 5:14 Tomasz Sowinski 19-Jul-01 5:14  How to see what SP I have? Good question. There's no such info in help/about. Visual Basic displays it in splash screen, so if you have this thing installed have a look. But it surely isn't service pack problem. The winsplit.cpp file has an ancient modification date (somewhere in 1998). How can I detect what and who makes the call to SetRowInfo? I've already told you that in previous post. Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com Re: How do splitter depend on window styles? Tommy H D Svensson19-Jul-01 5:19 Tommy H D Svensson 19-Jul-01 5:19  "Have a look at stack after assert..." Sorry, but I don't know what that means. Re: How do splitter depend on window styles? Tomasz Sowinski19-Jul-01 5:25 Tomasz Sowinski 19-Jul-01 5:25  When your program ASSERTs, open the 'Call stack' window. From the main menu select View/Debug windows/Call stack. There's also an icon on the toolbar. Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com
