I just need pointing in the right direction. I've used CFileDialog successfully to open files and read the contents (NB: do I need to specifically close an ifstream, or will it be done automatically once it goes out of scope?)
I've also edited this so that a "Save as" dialog comes up. But I'm not sure what the proper way to then write to this file. I've set the PROMPTOVERWRITE flag like this
CFileDialog fileBrowser(FALSE,".csv",NULL,OFN_OVERWRITEPROMPT,"Comma Separated Value Files (*.csv)|*.csv|",NULL);
int ret = fileBrowser.DoModal();
if(IDOK == ret) then write stuff to the file
so I want to know the proper way to write data to this file, presumably using an ofstream? do i then need to set ios::trunc to make sure if they overwrite the file it erases the old contents properly?
I can probably make this work, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't being a complete muppet

Well, you should know, your're designing the application and the file structure. Right? 
Seriously, what do you mean by "proper"?
Just to be sure:
The CFileDialog class is simply for getting a filename and a path to a file that you either wants to read or write. The CFileDialog class does not perform any read or write operations on the file selected by the user. The OFN_OVERWRITEPROMPT flag only instructs the CFileDialog to warn the user if you opened a "SaveAs" dialog and the user selected an existing file. It has nothing to do with how the file is opened later.
BTW, you need an extra '|' at the end of your filter string.

Hi All,
I have created a window using the Win32 api functions. Now I created a message loop inside a member function of the class like so:
{<br />
UINT uMsg = 0;<br />
<br />
while (true)<br />
{<br />
if (::PeekMessage ((LPMSG) (&uMsg), m_hWnd, 0, 0, PM_REMOVE))<br />
{<br />
::TranslateMessage((LPMSG) (&uMsg));<br />
::DispatchMessage((LPMSG) (&uMsg));<br />
}<br />
else<br />
{<br />
if (MessageQueueEmpty () == FAILURE)<br />
{<br />
return FAILURE;<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
return SUCCESS;<br />
}<br />
However after the first iteration, this becomes NULL. If I make uMsg static, it works fine.
Why?? 
regards,
Rich

This code has a few problems. Here’s is an edited down version of your code which shows the biggest:
UINT uMsg = 0;
::PeekMessage((LPMSG)(&uMsg), m_hWnd, 0, 0, PM_REMOVE)
The first parameter to PeekMesage is a LPMSG but your variable is of type UINT. You would get a compiler error if you tried the following code:
::PeekMessage(&uMsg, m_hWnd, 0, 0, PM_REMOVE)
You "solve" this by adding the following C-style cast:
(LPMSG)
This will never work, all you've done with this cast is say to the compiler, "Yeah I know a LPMSG isn't the same as a UINT* and you normally wouldn't compile this code but I'm the man, just blindly push ahead and compile it anyway". The problem is a UINT isn't a MSG, cast or no cast.
Here's what it should look like (edited down version):
MSG m;
::PeekMessage(&m, m_hWnd, 0, 0, PM_REMOVE)
A word of advice:
Never use C-style casts (a type in brackets). Always use function style casts instead. When you find yourself tempted to write (UINT)i write static_cast<UINT>(i) instead. If the cast doesn't make sense the compiler will complain (you can still get into trouble but the chances are a lot less). If you want to make the compiler do what you say as a C-style cast does use a reinterpret_cast. Casts are ugly (but occasionally necessary) and generally indicate a design flaw. The function style casts syntax allows you to spot casts more easily. Also C-style casts are not fine grained enough where as function style casts come in four types: dynamic_cast, static_cast, reinterpret_cast, const_cast so it is clearer and harder to abuse.

Hi Steve,
Thanks for the answer. Very helpful even though I can't believe I didn't see it.
thanks again,
Rich

Hi,
I am using a richedit as a chat buffer.
When a new chat message is received, I use this:
chat_window_rich.SetSel(GetWindowTextLength(chat_window_rich), -1);
chat_window_rich.SetSelectionCharFormat(cf);
chat_window_rich.ReplaceSel(buff);
Where buff is the new text, and cf is the color and formatting of the new text.
However, for some reason, sometimes if a person has text highlighted and a message is received, some or all of the highlighted text will just delete. I have no idea what could be causing it.
I also have a check to see if the user is scrolled up, in which case I turn off redraw and manually set the scroll position back to where it should be. Could this also be part of the problem? People say that they see the problem more often when they are scrolled up.
Thanks!

Does anyone know "offhand" how I can intercept when the user clicks on a Tab (Tabcontrol) on a propertysheet (that is not in wizard mode,) or uses the keyboard to navigate between property pages on a property sheet. I would like (under certain circumstances) to disable the user from changing between property pages on the property sheet, but stll be able to do this programatically. Thanks in advance

Oh well... solved the problem myself in the end... here is what I came up with incase anyone has a similar situation.
Override the PreTranslateMessage function in your CPropertySheet derived class...
BOOL CmyDerivedClass::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* px_msg){
if(m_bStopUserClickingonTabs &&
(px_msg->message == WM_LBUTTONDOWN || px_msg->message == WM_LBUTTONUP))
{
// Get the Tabl Control
// ********************
CTabCtrl* pTabCtrl = GetTabControl();
ASSERT(NULL != pTabCtrl && ::IsWindow(pTabCtrl->m_hWnd));
if(NULL != pTabCtrl && ::IsWindow(pTabCtrl->m_hWnd)){
CRect rect;
pTabCtrl->GetClientRect(&rect);
if(rect.PtInRect(px_msg->pt)){
return TRUE;
}
}
}
// Call the base class
// *******************
return CPropertySheet::PreTranslateMessage(px_msg);
}
This will not of course stop the user using the keybaord to switch between property pages, but this is sufficiant for my needs. If anyone has a more "elegant" method, then please, drop a line...

Does it still use microsoft dll ??

if you are talking about MFC, then the answer is no. But you can develop core win api applications with it.
if you are looking for a good toolkit, try QT from trolltech. it is free for developing non-commercial applications and it supports mingw as a compiler. if you are not lucky with QT, you can hava a look at wxwindows.
hope that helps you out.

Not without knowing what the exact error is, and what statement is causing it.

Hi,
Which is the last message processed by a normal WindowProc?
Is it WM_DESTROY ?
Thank you...
- NS -
|
|
|
|
|
I think WM_NCDESTROY is amongst the last.
Steve
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, as per my knowledge WM_DESTROY is the last message processed by WinProc function. Because after recieving this message it starts destoying the memory used by window, and released the window resources. And obviously, the message queue will be no longer exist after resource release, and the window no exists to receive any msg...

Hello Friends !
I'm trying to build the recordset with custom fields those are not taken from any table. This i can do in VB as below
Public ResponseInfo As ADODB.Recordset
Set ResponseInfo = New ADODB.Recordset
ResponseInfo.CursorLocation = adUseClient
Do Until <somecondition_overhere>
ResponseInfo.Fields.Append "MsgFieldName",adVarChar,250
Loop
ResponseInfo.Open
ResponseInfo.AddNew
'some blaa blaa manipulation with ResponseInfo
This is working fine in vb. but what i implemented in VC++ (Using #import "msado15.dll")is not working. Because Open() doesn't take 0 parameters. so, is ther any other logic to build such dynamic recordset (recordset holding dynamic coulmns, those are not from tables). I wanna to add columns of recordset dynamicaly, that too the columns are note associated with any table (this is mendatory point).
Please get me some help...!
-Malli...!

guess it depends on what you're trying to do. if you actually want to add them to a table later, why not just use a 'CREATE TABLE' statement, execute it, then make a recordset based on that table. then populate it with whatever you want. Or make a dummy SELECT statement from a real table something like this:
select cast('' as varchar(250)) as MsgFieldName from realtable
I just tried this in query analyzer and it works. You could do that for all the field names so that if you actually have a connection, it won't matter which table you pick, just pick any. Add the other fields as appropriate.

Thanks BlackDice !
I was using the same logic before i.e. create table wala. Yours one is really nice code ! It worked fine ! one more problem i suffered is that, i couldn't update the rows of the recordset. I've put the code showing how I coded. Can you get me some help, to update the recordset (insert record or update values of fields).
sprintf(SqlTempQuery,"select cast('FieldValue' as varchar(20)) as testcolumns from tmptable");
pTemRec->Open(SqlTempQuery,_variant_t((IDispatch *) pConn, true),adOpenDynamic,adLockBatchOptimistic,adCmdText);
pTemRec->AddNew("testcolumn","10"); //this line gives runtime error//
Error Description what I got from catch block is : "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done."May I get more light on the issue... Get me some logic to get work done...!!!
