Hi,
I am doing a project in win32. I have two dialog boxes running at the same time. At one point I want to close on of the dialog from the dialog proc of the other.
How do I get the handle of the dialog.
Pls help.

If you both share the same parent window, then enumerate child windows of the parent window. If it is not you, then it must be the other dialog.
|

They dont share the same parent window...How do I do in this case..
|
|
|
|
|
If they are created from the same program, why don't you pass the handle of the first dialog box to the other via its constructor?
|
|
|
|
|
If both dialogs exist in the same thread then send message is your friend. However, if they are from different threads (separate apps) then post message is your friend.
I have always found it best to just tell (send it a custom message) the dialog that should close to do so. That way it can perform any clean up operations it needs to.

Opps, I missed that part when I replied earlier. If you know the caption you can use find window to get a CWnd pointer.
static CWnd* PASCAL FindWindow(<br />
LPCTSTR lpszClassName,<br />
LPCTSTR lpszWindowName <br />
);

I have a record list with many colomns.
Under one of the colomns, i would like to set the text color red based on some logic., but only for that particular record in that particular colomn.
I currently do something like:
COLORREF cr;
if (indicator)
{
cr = RGB(255,0,0);
m_RecordList.SetTextColor(cr);
strValue = "YES";
m_RecordList.SetItemText(i, INDICATUR, strValue);
}
Then i would set the color back to black for the next record.
This obviously does not work because when the color is changed, it changes the entire record list.
What can i use to just get that record in that column text to be red?

hello all, i have a question:
c# has the feature of 'static constructors' meaning that the static constructor is guaranteed to be called before any part of the rest of a class is used or instantiated. i.e. the following code:
class MyClass {<br />
private static int mydata[];<br />
<br />
public static MyClass() {<br />
MyClass::mydata = new int[20];<br />
}<br />
<br />
public static doSomething() {<br />
}<br />
}
before DoSomething is accessed, the test() static consturctor is guaranteed to be called. any equivalent of this in c++ ? (alternative to doing everything in the WinMain() or the _main()

LOL - I stared at it for a while, and just assumed my C++ was too rusty, because I could not see how it helped

No, but this[^] article explains how to emulate static constructors in C++.

Aside from creating an elaborate framework, or initializing all globals/statics in an init function your only real option is through the use of #pragma init_seg().
The pragma specifies when the global/static variables in a source file (.c/.cpp) are to be initialized. There are 3 defined groups: compiler, lib, user that are initialized in that order.
e.g.
Given (in various .h files):
extern int g_a;
class C {...}; // uses g_a
extern C g_c;
fileA.cpp (source with g_a):
#pragma init_seg(lib)
int g_a = 0;
fileC.cpp (source for class C):
#pragma init_seg(user)
C g_c();
Normally it would be a crap shoot on whether g_a is initialized before g_c.
However, with the pragma's, the compiler will make sure g_a = 0 before g_c is constructed.

Is there a basic windows dialog we can use when making an application that has a "Browse...", "Open...", or "Save..." option, or do I have to create my own? How would I use it, if there is one provided for me already?

Hello,
how can I read a file line by line and get the first character of each line ? I have a config file where comments are specified with a ; as the first character.
Please help
With kind regards,

I like to use fstream. For example,
#include < fstream.h ><br />
fstream SomeFile;<br />
SomeFile.open(pathToOpen, ios::in | ios::nocreate | ios::noreplace);<br />
if(!SomeFile){<br />
output = "Error!";<br />
}<br />
SomeFile.getline(TextBuffer, 5000, '\n');
In the example, SomeFile is an fstream object. Open the file with open() (Check MSDN for full stats and flags with this). pathToOpen is a string with the path of the file you want to open. If the string is just a file name it will look in the current path. The ios statements are different flags. This one opens as input (you are reading from the file) and not overwriting or creating the file. An error statement. Then, for your question, the getline(). TextBuffer is a character array the line will be stored at, 5000 is the number of characters to be read, and the last option says to stop at the newline tag if one is read before 5000 characters.
It's easy from there to look at TextBuffer[0] (the first character of the line) or to scan the TextBuffer array until you reach the first word (and make sure it's not prefaced with a ';'. Can comments begin after a line? You can write a loop to look through the TextBuffer until the ';' is reached and replace it with a '\0' (null terminating character). I wouldn't suggest replacing the '\n' in the code with a ';' because, while that might work sometimes, does every line have to have a ';' character? It may then read in several lines.
Hope this helps and is descriptive enough!

Hi,
Thank you for your quick answer.
<br />
ifstream fin(strFilename);<br />
char buffer[2000];<br />
while(!fin.eof())<br />
{<br />
fin.getline(buffer,2000,'\n');<br />
str += buffer;<br />
}<br />
This is the code i have now. But it seems the while loop is kicked into an endless loop. Do you know why?
With best regards,
Benedikt

If you have your program display the text it reads in every loop iteration, it might be easier to see what is going on.

This part should work, but I'm not as familiar with using ifstream as just plain fstream. As an alternative, you could try
<br />
fstream fin;<br />
fin.open(strFilename, ios::in);<br />
But what you have should work. I have two other thoughts:
Is the file referred to by strFilename in the same folder as your program? It's possible that the call ifstream fin(strFilename); is simply not opening the file. If strFilename is a string with the whole path, is the file really there? If strFilename is a string with just the file, is the file in the same directory as the program? Don't forget your error checking!
Second idea, as mentioned in a response earlier, have you tried outputting the buffer at each iteration. If so, is anything being outputted? If not, then the file was probably never opened and fin does not point to a file descripter. Is the contents outputted appropriate? What are the contents of the file? If my previous guesses are incorrect, I guess I'd have to know what the file is.
Hope this helps!
