I had to do this with an older reporting application I worked on - it dynamically loaded images from a database in the background and rendered them as thumbnails into a ListView control.
The way I did it was to use custom draw with the ListView control, combined with a ImageList control. The ImageList control was used to pre-create (pre-allocate) and manage a very large bitmap, and the thumbnails were dynamically copied into it by loading the images and drawing them into the individual "icon cells" in the ImageList control.
The ImageList control was then used to do indirect drawing directly into the ListView control using Custom Draw.
I was able to get a pretty large amount of Thumbnails to work this way.
I cannot release the code for it, but the concept for it is not patented! 
Peace!

you needn't to directly read the bitmap from file. use LoadImage() image function to load a bitmap from file. This function will return u a handle of HBITMAP.
And to Load JPG or GIF, you need to use the GDI+ class Image.

Do you have a special intention for use of this code to open and load bmp file?

You have two addresses of start and end of a file on the harddisk and you want to make a bmp file(thumbnail)of them ,right?

Hi
I need to add a context menu handler to a file type like .xyz so when I right click on any .xyz file it will show my private menu. I know how to add a simple menu in the registry, but I need to add a managed context menu in a DLL. I know all things about registry Using HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, but I miss the DLL declaration. I read about it in MSDN page but I couldn't understand to solve my problem.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/shell/programmersguide/shell_int/shell_int_extending/extensionhandlers/contextmenuhandlers.asp
this page contain exactly what what I need, but I couldn't understand correctly. so I need a simple example.
I want to add a group of menu having the name: "MyGroup" and having 2 sub menu: "Menu1" and "Menu2"
if I click on Menu1 it will call: "C:\MyProgram.exe /1" and if I click on Menu2 it will call: "C:\MyProgram.exe /2"
I need a small example, because I couldn't understand the general example in Msdn page.

There is a complete series about writing shell extension on code project. See here[^] for the first (I think there are 9 articles in total).
Maybe you'll find some usefull information there.

Hi everybody,
i used a customizated CEdit from out CodeProject :
void MyCEdit::OnKillFocus(CWnd* pNewWnd)
{
CEdit::OnKillFocus(pNewWnd);
SetBkColor(RGB(255,255,255));
}
void MyCEdit::OnSetFocus(CWnd* pOldWnd)
{
CEdit::OnSetFocus(pOldWnd);
SetBkColor(RGB(0,216,255));
}
void MyCEdit::SetBkColor(COLORREF crColor)
{
m_crBkColor = crColor; // Passing the value passed by the dialog to the member variable for Backgound Color
m_brBkgnd.DeleteObject(); // Deleting any Previous Brush Colors if any existed.
m_brBkgnd.CreateSolidBrush(crColor); // Creating the Brush Color For the Edit Box Background
RedrawWindow();
}
switching between the textboxes displays the current textbox with the focus a blue background.
Switching with the TAB-Key works nice, but with the mouse provokes a strange effect.
If i'm on textbox A and switch to B, B gets the blue background BUT a keeps a small frame at the extern sides 
If i pass (not click) with the mouse over the textbox, the small frame disappears and the textbox
is in the correct displaying mode ( without background )
My question : How can i provoke programmaticly a "mouse over a control" ?
I tried already :
UpdateWindow();
Invalidate();
RedrawWindow();
but no effect, only if i pass the mouse over it 
Thanks a lot

Can you show , how MyCEdit::OnPaint looks like ?
|
|
|
|
|
It's the standard OnPaint-Handler
Thanks for help

Have a look at http://www.codeproject.com/editctrl/enhfocusedit.asp[^], which does a custom background with focus, and have seemed to work correctly so far...
Peace!

Ok, i see the problem
it's not a problem of MFC or something else, it's at new a BCGSoft-Problem
With standard-textboxes it works great... But with the BCGSoft-Librairy it sucks 
so, i think i can't resolve the problem

I used to use BGCSoft - you can see my posts on their forum.
I do not use them anymore, though...!

I must excuse me by BCGSoft, it wasn't a BCGSoft Problem.
RedrawWindow(NULL, NULL, RDW_INVALIDATE | RDW_UPDATENOW | RDW_ERASE | RDW_FRAME);
resolves the Problem
Sorry & thanks BCGSoft ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

If you have the machine name then use gethostbyname.

or if the client is connected (you have a connected socket) then you can use getpeername().
