hwndListbox

Its really bad coding convention.Thats why I assumed it as list box.

I dont see any reason why ListView_GetItemCount should not work with list view, if it contains items.

Dear prasad,
well i am new comer in the win32 programming so sorry for asking some stupid
questions.

ListView_GetItemCount(hwndListview);
is working but now there is problem with the fetching out string from the
listview's first 0 column.

1) for string it is not supported,
2)it might support for WCHAR but when i convert it into string its not convert into string it gives ? mark at debugging time.
code :

<br />
string Utility::ConvertWCHARToString(LPCWSTR source)<br />
{<br />
	try<br />
	{<br />
		size_t len = wcslen(source) * sizeof(LPCWSTR);<br />
		char* tempOutFile = new char[len];<br />
		     WideCharToMultiByte(CP_ACP,0,source,-1,tempOutFile,(int)len,NULL,NULL);<br />
                                      //tempOutFile Give me the value ????????<br />
                                       @ the time of debugging<br />
		string s = tempOutFile;<br />
		if(tempOutFile)<br />
		{<br />
			delete[] tempOutFile;<br />
		}<br />
		return s;<br />
	}<br />
	catch(exception ex)<br />
	{<br />
		throw ex;<br />
	}<br />
}<br />
<br />

3)so i have taken char buff[500],
for that it works fine, but when it convert into string(buff_input) it gives first char and terminate .
i also knew the reason for that i have remark when i had debug the code
in char buffer it show me the null(0) value after every character.
like e.g buff[0] | a
buff[1] | 0
buff[2] | b
buff[3] | 0
buff[4] | c

means @ all the odd position it gives me the null so the string will terminate
immidate after buff[1] so it shows first character only when convert into string

ListView_GetItemText(hwndListview,i,0,(LPWSTR)&buff,MAX_PATH);
std::string buff_input(buff);

which one is suitable (1),(2),(3)? give me the guide line master

It is because, you are using UNICODE configuration.

amitmistry_petlad wrote:

Modify this to,

THCAR buff[MAX_PATH]={0};
ListView_GetItemText(hwndListview,i,0,(LPWSTR)&buff,MAX_PATH);
std::wstring buff_input(buff); //wstring for wide char string

Remember, TCHAR becomes wchar_t for UNICODE and char for ANSI. And std::wstring you need to use for wide char string(which is case in UNICODE), in ANSI you need to use std::string.

I want some information about VC++.net that can we use all API in VC++6.0 in VC++.net. Is there any API which can not used in VC++.net but in VC++ 6.0.

Provided link should satisfy your query. There are some functions you use, but marked as depreceted.

hi every one
please tell me where do delete "achdata pointer" in this code ?

char* achData=new char[100];//where do delete this pointer?<br />
	strcpy(achData,"Hello");//this pointer must initialize out of loop<br />
<br />
	for(;;)<br />
	{<br />
		char *ch=new char[100];<br />
<br />
		strcat(ch,achData);<br />
<br />
		if(ch)<br />
		{<br />
			delete[] ch;<br />
			ch=NULL;<br />
		}<br />
	}<br />
	<br />
	if(achData)//This code will not run never<br />
	{<br />
		delete[] achData;<br />
		achData=NULL;<br />
	}

I assume this is a joke, because of the smiley face marking the problem line.
You will never get to the code that deletes "achdata" because of the infinite "for" loop.

The smiley face was unintentional - a result of for( ; ; ), with the spaces removed.

So was this a joke? If not then

this code is bad:

char *ch=new char[100];
strcat(ch,achData);

You haven't initialized ch before using strcat() on it.

You are in an endless for loop so your "if(achData)//This code will not run never" will
never get called.

accessing a part of a char array

Johpoke25-Dec-06 23:37

Im working in C++ w MFC. In my program i create a char that looks kinda like this:

char data[11] = "1101110110";

and then later in the program i have a for which reads this binary data and does certain things depending on if its a 1 or 0:

for ( short c=0; c<=10; c++ )
{
if (data[c] == 1 )
{
//do this
}

}

But it doesn't work at all, the data[c] always seems to return 0 with the if..

any ideas?

maybe theres a better way to store my binary data (which is actually a lot longer, like 64 chars) and then do things depending on 1 or 0?

thanks!

man ive gotten like loads of post errors now..

you are testing ascii values
ie.
'1' == 49

for this to work you can test
if (data[c] == 49)

or you can test
if (data[c] == '1')

Hope this helps Smile | :)
