Why don't you check out the Class Members in CString?
Well, here goes:
Solution 1, CString:
CString cs = "C:\\MyDocuments\\myDialog\\release\\myapp.exe";
CString pureFileName;
int lastSlashOffset = cs.ReverseFind((TCHAR) '\\');
if(lastSlashOffset >= 0 && cs.GetLength > (lastSlashOffset + 1)) {
pureFileName = cs.Mid(pureFileName + 1);
}
// pureFileName contains the file name.
Solution 2 (good old splitpath):
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
void main( void )
{
char path_buffer[_MAX_PATH];
char drive[_MAX_DRIVE];
char dir[_MAX_DIR];
char fname[_MAX_FNAME];
char ext[_MAX_EXT];
strcpy(path_buffer, "C:\\MyDocuments\\myDialog\\release\\myapp.exe");
_splitpath( path_buffer, drive, dir, fname, ext );
printf( "Path extracted with _splitpath:\n" );
printf( " Drive: %s\n", drive );
printf( " Dir: %s\n", dir );
printf( " Filename: %s\n", fname );
printf( " Ext: %s\n", ext );
}
Output
Path extracted with _splitpath:
Drive: c:
Dir: \MyDocuments\myDialog\release\
Filename: myapp
Ext: .exe

This is the code that i have Tested with VC.6
it is actually the correction of the answer posted to the
quetion .
If ur using CString so its VC++ and for VC++ this format
is preferable.
<br />
CString str1="C:\\MyDocuments\\myDialog\\release\\myapp.exe";<br />
int indx=str1.ReverseFind('\\');<br />
indx++;<br />
if (indx!=-1)<br />
CString fileName=str1.Mid(indx);<br />

#include "shlwapi.h"
CString strPathName = _T("C:\\MyDocuments\\myDialog\\release\\myapp.exe");
LPTSTR pszFileName = PathFindFileName(strPathName);
CString strFileName = pszFileName;
Never forget to search MSDN.
That's all, folks! 
One always gets the deserved.

Similarly you can use _tSplitPath() api also

i want to chang the data of VT_DATE to the one of VT_BSTR with the VariantChangeTypeEx(&vargDest,&varSrc,2052,0,VT_BSTR) function, but only a part of the data is changed. for example,2005-12-20 0:00:00 is converted to 2005-12-20 of VT_BSTR, but 1899-12-30 21:30:00 is converted to 21:30:00 of VT_BSTR. both 2005-12-20 0:00:00 and 1899-12-30 21:30:00 are from sql server, and 2005-12-20 0:00:00 is smalldatetime; 1899-12-30 21:30:00 is datetime. how can i get the complete VT_BSTR data?

hi everyone, i want to write some letters on a sphere to give the letters third dimension, and i don't want to use openGl or DirectX, how ?
thanks in advance!
|
|

|

why not use one of them? If you want to do it yourself then you need to understand the maths involved.
If you just want a simple solution then draw the letters at the middle of the string bigger than at each end.

|
|
|
|
sounds like a good idea, i'll try. thanks again

i have tried,it looks uglily, maybe it is the time to review maths

In vc6 project with vss, what do the two icons in front of each file mean (one with a downward arrow, one without)? Thanks.

I have referred to the FAQ but the answer does not solve the problem actually...
Below is my code of creating srevice:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SC_HANDLE hService =
::CreateService(
handle, // handle to SCM database
servicename.c_str(), // name of the service to install
servicename.c_str(), // name that is displayed on SCM
SERVICE_ALL_ACCESS, // can be accessed only by administrators
SERVICE_WIN32_OWN_PROCESS, // service runs its own process
SERVICE_AUTO_START, // started by SCM when StartService() is called
SERVICE_ERROR_IGNORE, // error logged but service started
ss, // pathname of the executable
NULL, // service does not belong to any group
NULL, // service does not use a tag
NULL, // requires NtLmsSp and EventLog service to be running
".\\Administrator", // user name to log on
"s" // password
);

Hi!Dear,
I got a Link error when compile my windows app on visual studio c++ 6.0.
It says:
"LINK:fatal error LNK1104:can not open file '..\..\baseclasses\debug_unicode\quartz.lib'".
My Project Options:..\..baseclasses\debug_unicode\quartz.lib kernel32.lib ...
And when I changed by Project Options as:
:..\..baseclasses\debug_unicode\kernel32.lib quartz.lib ...
then the link error says:
"LINK:fatal error LNK1104:can not open file '..\..\baseclasses\debug_unicode\kernel32.lib'"
But I am quite sure that I have added the directories of these libray files.
Then,how to kill this matter?
Thanks!

Do these files exist ? Apparently, they are not visible to the compiler.

Yes, but if you've added their directories to VC, then you need to link to just the file, and not a relative path to the file. Try removing all but the lib name and see how you go.

If I remember correectly, quartz.lib is part of media player 9 so reinstall that.

Which is faster when doing a file search on your pc programmatically? CRC's or byte-for-byte checking?

Offcourse CRC, but what the use of that in file search

hello
I am experimenting with simulating a key press using the SetKeyboardState
<br />
while(true)<br />
{<br />
<br />
DWORD thread_acum=GetWindowThreadProcessId(GetActiveWindow(),NULL);<br />
<br />
UINT vk,scan;<br />
<br />
LPARAM lparam;<br />
<br />
vk = VkKeyScan('s');<br />
<br />
<br />
AttachThreadInput(thread_acum,GetCurrentThreadId(),TRUE);<br />
<br />
<br />
BYTE byKeybState[256];<br />
GetKeyboardState(byKeybState); <br />
byKeybState[vk] =! (BOOL)::GetKeyState(vk);<br />
<br />
<br />
byKeybState[vk] =!(BOOL)GetKeyState(vk);<br />
SetKeyboardState(byKeybState);<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
AttachThreadInput(thread_acum,GetCurrentThreadId(),FALSE);<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Sleep(1000);<br />
<br />
}<br />
why does this not work? No key is pressed

Why Don't you use SendInput Api or KeyBD_event api..

because I have the latest version of zonealarm installed on my sytem and it doesn't allow these functions any more
I am not trying to do anything illegal with this but I saw it in a article and said hey I should try this
and it doesn't work
So far za doesn't object to me using this function but it doesn't work
for the others you mention above and for PostMessage(WM_KEYUP) it gives me worning messages
so there are 2 reasons
1. I don't wanna upset za
2.I wanna do it with this function

Hello,
I am working on a project and I am stuck at one place. I have 2 applications.
1-> ActiveX Control (Developed in MFC)
2-> A Windows C++ application.(No MFC...purely Windows)
How can I use the functions defined in ActiveX into this C++ application. I tried adding the ActiveX header file in my C++ application but then I get an error of CWnd, CString etc classes of MFC not found.
Please let me know if you or any of your friends know the solution. Please email me at dubeyashok@yahoo.com
Thanks in Advance.

Ashok,
I'm no expert yet on mfc, but from what I've seen, mfc is nothing more than a bunch of wrapper code around the win32 functions. So, I don't think there is any reason why you cannot do this. I would suggest creating a dummy mcf application with ActiveX support. Take a look at the stdafx header file. Also, there your Windows app must call AfxEnableControlContainer(); You'll see all of this in your dummy application.
You should get pretty far with this approach.

Hi.
You can access its methods as you would access any other COM object's methods.
Use CoCreateInstance to create the object (based on its CLSID)and that will give you a pointer to the object's IDispatch interface.
Ex:
IDispatch* pDisp;
CoCreateInstance(clsid, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, iid, &pDisp);
clsid is the Class ID for the ActiveX object and iid is the Interface ID for the IDispatch interface of the object.
After that you can use pDisp->GetIDsOfNames() to get dispatch ids based on method names, and with that dispatch id you can use pDisp->Invoke() to call the method.
Remember to call pDisp->Release() to decrement the reference counter for that interface so the object can be destroyed.
