Our entire development team here has been suffering from a strange VC IDE problem. I was wondering if any of you have come across this.
Our project is pretty big. 10 dsp files around 4000 files and 3.5 million lines of code.
Often during development, the IDE stops responding, the CPU gets pegged at 100 (or near there) and no redraws happen in the IDE. On my 650MHz machine (with 256MB of RAM) this state lasts 10-15 minutes and then all resumes. It got better when I added tons of header files to the MSVCINCL.DAT files is used to exclude files from the file dependencies. I talked to MS tech support and they said that it seems to be a dependency update pause (!). They said the file limit is around 9600 files so that isn't it.
One of my co-workers got a GHz machine and the pause is barely perceptable.
I was wondering if there are any work-arounds any of you know about?
TIA

Often the workspace .ncb file will become corrupt, and this can cause a lag. Also, best of luck to you if you are using VSS... 
You can safely delete the workspace .ncb file. It will get regenerated. If you find this fixes your problem, you may wish to write or find a utility to delete the file automatically. Several exist, though I will shamelessly plug one I wrote called NukeNCB.
Best of luck,

Like Nick, I've found that deleting *.ncb files seems to cure almost every problem I have with the IDE.
I don't use any VCS system yet but I make zip backups of my source directories at least once a day. I've got the batch file that does the zipping setup to delete any .ncb files, among others, before it makes the archive.
Be aware that the *.ncb file is locked while the project is loaded in the IDE. I seem to recall that the IDE occasionally fails to release the file lock when you close a project from the File menu. I now just exit the IDE to make sure that everything is closed properly.

Howdy all.
First, I want to apologize for what I am about to do. Yes, I am going to ask a how to related question.
See, I am messing with CListCtrl objects and find that I want to insert an image in a subitem. I can do this, it isn't hard. My problem is that once the subitem image is added, the main item also seems to be forced to have an image. I was wondering if anyone else had this happen to them.
Thank you.

I messed around with it for a few minutes, and it looks like just doing a ListView_SetImageList() call forces every column 0 item to have an icon. 
I.e., if you do:
LVITEM i = {0};
i.mask = LVIF_TEXT;
i.pszText = _T("blah");
ListView_InsertItem ( hwndList, &i );
The "blah" item gets image #0 in the image list, even though LVIF_IMAGE wasn't in the mask.

I'm having one of those "stupid" problems.
I have a basic ATL ActiveX control with a child TreeView. In the control's message map, I handle WM_NOTIFY for TVN_KEYDOWN, with the intent of catching VK_F5 and VK_DELETE. However, my handler is never called for these key presses.
I do process PreTranslateMessage(), and allow these keystrokes to reach the control, just as I do VK_LEFT/RIGHT/UP/DOWN, which do make it into my TVN_KEYDOWN handler.
Spy shows that the control isn't sourcing a WM_NOTIFY for those keystrokes. ??? Why the heck not?? Is my container messing with me? The listview control is receiving WM_KEYDOWN/UP messages for all keys.
Regards,
Nick Hodapp

I haven't fixed this problem yet, but I think I understand the issue. I think that my container -- including the Test Container, has an accelerator table defined to map keystrokes to commands. The tree control, upon receiving WM_KEYDOWN is calling TranslateMesssage(), and upon finding that the keystroke is mapped, discontinues processing.
Ugh. Fine. I will unleash my subclassing power upon the meek and prevail.

Hi every body,
During long processing, i display a modeless dialog like this :
CModelessDlg * DlgAttente; // CModelessDlg is my class
DlgAttente = new CModelessDlg;
DlgAttente->Create(IDD_DIALOG_ATTENTE,this);
DlgAttente->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
DlgAttente->m_Message="Please wait, processing is being......";
DlgAttente->UpdateData(FALSE);
m_message is a variable bind to CStatic control ( label ). It shows my messages.
This code work well, but if i display another window, for example, windows explorer, Bloc Notes, then close it, my modeless dialog don't refresh. The message show on it by my CStatic disappear without trace.
Can anybody help me ??
Thanks in advance

You need to process waiting Windows messages during your "long processing". If your long processing is a loop, simply add code like this inside the loop:
MSG msg;
while (::PeekMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0, PM_REMOVE))
::DispatchMessage(&msg);
This will periodically dispatch waiting messages -- including the WM_PAINT messages that are waiting to be processed for your dialog.
Alternatively, do your "long processing" on a separate thread.
Regards,
Nick Hodapp

I know that somehow you can draw a unicode character from a font that contains the character using the glyph index. MSDN contains a brief article about a tehcnique for mapping the unicode number to a glyph index so it can be rednered using exttextout - however I can not get this technique to work. Can someone please lend a hand and provide a simple example of how to draw a foriegn character on a dc in windows 95/98. Ie can do this, there must be a way

You can use ExtTextOut and glyph index to display any glyph in a font;
Or you can use TextOutW or ExtTextOutW to display UNICODE string without using glyph index.

How can I get serial number of hard drive in Win32?
|
|
|
|

G'day Vaslieyev,
One way that I know of is with the ::GetVolumeInformation() function. There may be other ways though.
Hope this helps.
Steve

Check out the GetVolumeInformation() win32 api function...
CString sRootPath = "C:\\";
char sVolumeNameBuffer[MAX_PATH];
char sFileSysNameBuffer[256];
DWORD nFileSystemFlags = NULL;
DWORD nVolSerialNumber = NULL;
DWORD nMaxFNameLen = NULL;
::SetErrorMode(SEM_FAILCRITICALERRORS);
::GetVolumeInformation((LPCTSTR)sRootPath,
sVolumeNameBuffer,
sizeof(sVolumeNameBuffer),
&nVolSerialNumber,
&nMaxFNameLen,
&nFileSystemFlags,
sFileSysNameBuffer,
sizeof(sFileSysNameBuffer));

I'm having a hard time forcing my ATL control to size itself.
I tried SetWindowPos and MoveWindow. They each return 1, meaning "OK", but the control never changes size.
Is there something else I need to do to make the resize happen?
(i'm testing it on an MFC dialog app, but i want to be able to use this anywhere).
-c

When Creating you ATL Control make sure that you expose the AutoSize Stock Property. Then in the InitialUpdate or InitDialog Function of your app set the AutoSize Property = false; I suppose that alternately you can find some mechanism to set it inside the control to always be false, but I just did a quick run through and didn't dig to deeply.

(I hope this is in the right forum).
I want to get the contents (in source code) of a CHTMLView after it has loaded into a CString. I am currently overriding the OnDownloadComplete virtual function, and attempting to get the documnts html using the GetHtmlDocument() function. The only problem is that it is of type IDispatch rather than a CString, so I can't use how I wanted to.
Can anybody help me to get the contents of the CHTMLView into a CString?
Thanks in advance,
James Corrie

Hi everyone,
I need help with converting Text Files into Access table and hope you can help me out.
I have 2 TEXT FILES, first that contains the table name, and its attribues, and the SECOND file contains the values of the table.
So if the first TEXT FILE that has the following table values:
tablename
field1, integer
field2, string
field3, integer
field4, string
then another TEXT FILE will contains the values for the table:
1, john, 6, smith
2, steve, 7, clark
3, carrie, 8, wayne
4, dan, 9, chait
5, erin, 10, alan
what i need to do is to read the values from the FIRST TEXT FILE that contains the table attributes and create the table.
Then i need to read the SECOND TEXT FILE and plug in the values. so at the end, i'll have a Access table like:
field1 field2 field3 field4
1 john 6 smith
2 steve 7 clark
3 carrie 8 wayne
4 dan 9 chait
5 erin 10 alan
But i need the readings of BOTH TEXT FILES to be dynamic so it'll work if the TEXT FILE has x number of columns, and x number of rows.
and i also need the reading to be dynamic so it can read the values from the SECOND TEXT FILE no matter what kind of values it contains, ie, integer, string, char, etc...
If anyone can help me out, Please let me know.
Thanks in Advance.
Steve
