As far as i can see, all is well. No problems what so ever.

Dialog in C/C++ [modified]

Hi all,

I want to know whether a function exists that can invoke a messagebox with a editbox inside of it (From a WIN32 console application / without using MFC)??
Makes sense ?

Thanks
Regards,

Hi,
Better u add one more dialog with an edit box in it. Make it as a child, then you can use it just like MessageBox by calling the dialog in appropriate places.

CMyDialog *dlg = new CMyDialog();
dlg->Create(IDD_DIALOG1, NULL);
dlg->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);

use this in places where you would like to call the MessageBox.

Regards,
Syam.

This might be a very stupid question, but isn't that MFC ???
I'm looking for a way to do it in C or C++

Many Thanks for your response.

Yes MFC. No way in pure C++. Noreover, Standard C++ language has no GUI support.

You'd have to use at least Win32 to get what you want.

Yes, that is MFC.

Well, MFC is a class library implemented in C++ that wraps the Win32 API, so technically it is an answer to your question.

But, I guess your question is how you can do this in C/C++ without the MFC library.
If this is the case, the answer is you have to use the Win32 API directly, e.g. DialogBox[^] for showing a modal dialog box.
Have a look at the CP - Win32 section here[^] to see if you can something that may help you.

Change CDialog Style

Hi,

i use a DialogRessource for a view, so the style must be "subordinated", with this style
the Dialog has no Border and "works as a View"

Now, i use to make a Dialog Window (Modal State), i derived a CDialog class with the same IDD
of the Dialog which i used for the view.

All works nice, but the Dialog has no Border (titleline,Frame,...)
Because i set the style to "subordinated"

How can i change this style at runtime? (At the creation)

Thanks in advance Smile | :)

Use ModifyStyle or ModifyStyleEx or SetWindowLong with nIndex set to GWL_STYLE and dwNewLong set to new style.

Which PayPal-like service do you use?

I'm wanting to be able to accept electronic payments for consulting and products through a service like PayPal. However, I'm not entirely happy with PayPal (their fees seem high and takes time to get them to pay you), and want to explore other options.

Anyone have thoughts?

I don't have any suggestions of alternatives but I did once receive payment for an item I sold on eBay for £350 via Paypal, I saw the money in my Paypal account and requested a transfer to my bank which was apparently successful so I sent of the item only to be contacted via Paypal telling me the money was sent from a stolen credit card and I was responsible for the cash, leaving me £350 out of pocket after I had paid their ridiculous fees!

I would avoid Paypal at all costs!

Hi,

I'm working on windows2000 with SP4. My application crashed when running. The developer ask me to open Dr.Watson for this application and send dump file to him. However, after run "drwtsn32 –p PID" (My application's PID), Dr. Watson crashed! So I can not get whole dump file. I just see such error from Dr. Watson's log:

App: (pid=2096)
When: 4/10/2007 @ 15:58:17.609
Exception number: 80000003 (hardcoded breakpoint)

I feel very boring and don't know the reason Frown | :(

Try to use your debugger instead of Dr.Watson, this will be much more efficient Smile | :)

What IDE are you using ? Don't you use visual studio ?
In most of the IDE, there is a debugger which comes along. Or are you using a simple text editor (like errr, notepad) and a command line compiler ?

If you are using any version of visual studio, simply press F5 to start the debugger. You can put breakpoints using F9 and watch the different variables state.
