Hi !
Thanks for the response but I have a linker error: error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__TransparentBlt@44.
And also, I am using MFC objects (CDC, CBitmap, ...) and this function is not defined in the CDC class. So maybe it can lead to problems if I mix CDC with HDC...

That means you are not linking to the right library for this function. Do you have VC7, or if you're using VC6, do you have a platoform SDK installed apart from the one that came with it ( you must do, otherwise you wouldn't get to the linking stage ). If the latter, perhaps your lib directory is not set up, but your include directory is.

No - a CDC is just a wrapper around a HDC, they boil down to the same thing with some helper functions. TransparentBlt is not supported by W95, and VC6 did not come with TransparentBlt, etc, because they did not exist. therefore, VC6 users need to have a more recent platform SDK installed in order for the compiler to know how to call those functions. It sounds like your compiler can find the header files that define this function, but not the lib file required at linking time, therefore I think you have VC6 and a Platform SDK that is not installed properly.
And obviously, if you use TransparentBlt, your exe won't run on W95. If it needs to, I wrote a W95 compatible version of TransparentBlt and AlphaBlend years ago, it's hosted on the Windows Developer Journal site. If you google 'Graus AlphaBlend TransparentBlt', you're bound to find it.

That could be the problem: I'm using VC6 and I didn't install any extra SDK...

Thanks, I found it, it seems interesting. I'll have a deeper look at it when I have time.
Thanks for your help

Search for article ExBitamp; I included a function called TransBlt in ExBitmap.cpp that works on Win31 and above (you can probably improve on it).

i have a a string (CString) of length 18 = "999999999999999.99" and i want to convet to a double value as 999999999999999.99 i have used the atof function but the value is getting truncated . i have tried in VC++ still the same value .

A double will always be an approximation. You're asking for too much precision on the left hand side, so it's rounding on the right.

No - the problem is that the precision exceeds the 15 digit precision limit for a double.
The example had a 17 digit number (excluding the decimal point) and should be handled correctly by using a long double.

i have tried even that. i got the 15 digit in a int64 data type and the float value in a float type . the 2 were added in a long double type but the result was still rounded off

See my reply to Christian...
Doubles and long doubles are synonymous unless ... I seem to recall there is a true long (80 bit i.e. IEEE long double) library in the win32 sdk.

I have been reading an article about accessing USB devices via C# and the article states a GUID for a specific USB device driver. I was wondering how does one find that information for other USB device drivers.

Iam using MDI Doc - View Architecture . Iam creating MDI child windows at run time .But these child windows are not enabled for scrolling.
I did the following to enable the scroll bars.
BOOL CChildFrame::PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs)
{
// TODO: Modify the Window class or styles here by modifying the CREATESTRUCT cs
if( !CMDIChildWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs) )
return FALSE;
cs.style = WS_CHILD|WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW|WS_CAPTION|WS_MINIMIZEBOX|WS_SIZEBOX|WS_VSCROLL|WS_HSCROLL;
//cs.dwExStyle = WS_EX_RIGHTSCROLLBAR;
return TRUE;
}
The first problem is that doing this causes the title of the child windows to vanish. But the scrolls are enabled.
Now the second problem is do I need to override the OnVScroll() and OnHScroll() functions to implement scrolling .If so how please let me know.

I'm afraid you have it around the wrong way - you obviously don't understand the DOC/VIEW architecture.
The frame (DOC) is merely a container for the view (VIEW) - so I suggest you read a little further (or back) into your class notes and see what type of VIEWS (C...View) are available.

You need to add the scroll bars to your view, not to the frame.

Along with doing this in the view and not the frame you should change the following:
cs.style = WS_CHILD|WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW|WS_CAPTION|WS_MINIMIZEBOX|WS_SIZEBOX|WS_VSCROLL|WS_HSCROLL;
to
cs.style |= WS_VSCROLL|WS_HSCROLL;
that way you do not have to know (nor care) what other creation flags are already set.
As for actual scrolling (w/o using CScrollView), you'll have to maintian a position indicator for the upper left hand courner (where drawing is supposed to start), then add or subtrack from that value (depending and direction of scroll). To do it right requires a bit more than that but it is a good starting position.
Good luck!

Hi,
I'm planning to develop a small doc/view MFC application that logs a lot of text. Much of the text will need to be in color. There will be a LOT of text being logged...so I'm wondering what the "line" limitations are on something like this.
Is the default "view" generated with MFC the best for something like this? Something better?
Any other tips you might have?
Thanks,
Phil

Look at the sample code below, I've been seeing "far" for a while in
other sample code. Can anyone tell me what it is?
typedef struct tagPENRECORD {<br />
DWORD dwPenType;<br />
POINT PtsToDraw[NUMPOINTS];<br />
<br />
} PENRECORD, *PPENRECORD, FAR *LPPENRECORD; <br />
Thanks

Back with 16-bit Windows, memory was addressed as segment:offset. You had "far" memory and "near" memory. That is no longer the case with 32-bit Windows. The preprocessor redefines both near and far to empty.
