I have a trivia question for you CStatic wizards out there.
Given a CStatic as created in a dialog displaying a bitmap, it lives for the lifetime of the dialog object. In my cleanup code, I have to release allocated resources - bitmaps being one of them. How does one tell a CStatic control to not use a bitmap, is it as simple as calling SetBitmap(NULL)?
What I want to do is make sure I don't delete a GDI object while it is in use, and I would think that CStatic would have it in use.
thanks

Generally if you set a bitmap at runtime, you would want to restore the
bitmap at runtime.
In this case, you should store the previous bitmap (returned by the first
CStatic::SetBitmap()/STM_SETIMAGE) and restore this when you're done with
the control. This value may very well be NULL, but it's your responsibility to put
it back or track it's lifetime.
This is from the docs:
Important
In version 6 of the Microsoft Win32 controls, a bitmap passed to a static control
using the STM_SETIMAGE message was the same bitmap returned by a subsequent
STM_SETIMAGE message. The client is responsible to delete any bitmap sent to a
static control.
With Microsoft Windows XP, if the bitmap passed in the STM_SETIMAGE message
contains pixels with non-zero alpha, the static control takes a copy of the bitmap.
This copied bitmap is returned by the next STM_SETIMAGE message. The client code
may independently track the bitmaps passed to the static control, but if it does not
check and release the bitmaps returned from STM_SETIMAGE messages, the bitmaps
are leaked.

insert forehead slapping sound...
of course, the returned HBITMAP. Duh.
Thank you also for the other warning info.

Hi,
I download a '.bmp' file through internet and save bits in the heap like char*, can I create CBitmap without save file to disk. 
|
|
|
|
|
Is CBitmap really what you want? CBitmaps are device-depentent bitmaps (DDB)
while a .bmp is device independent bitmap (DIB).
You can convert bitmaps from whatever type to whatever other type, but you
need to specify what type you want the resulting bitmap to be.

I don't know : )
but i fix it, i save file on disk and read it from there. Furst i try to separate data from header in .bmp file, because i saw one function which draw on dc directly from data bits of .bmp, but something get wrong and save it on the disk.
work fine now.

hi all... i am using ICC_BAR_CLASSES to initialize controls to create toolbar....
but i am getting one error
[linker error] undefined reference to `InitCommonControlsEx@4'
code creating problem is...
//-----------------------------------
INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX InitCtrlEx;
InitCtrlEx.dwSize = sizeof(INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX);
InitCtrlEx.dwICC = ICC_BAR_CLASSES;
InitCommonControlsEx(&InitCtrlEx);
//-----------------------------------
As structure INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX and function InitCommonControlsEx(..) are defined in commctrl.h i included this in my program.....earlier INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX this was also giving same error then i opened the header file commctrl.h and there i found these lines
//--------------------------------------
#if (_WIN32_IE >= 0x0300)
typedef struct tagINITCOMMONCONTROLSEX {
DWORD dwSize;
DWORD dwICC;
} INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX,*LPINITCOMMONCONTROLSEX;
#endif
//--------------------------------------
#if (_WIN32_IE >= 0x0300)
BOOL WINAPI InitCommonControlsEx(LPINITCOMMONCONTROLSEX);
#endif
//--------------------------------------
so in my program before header file in included
#ifdef _WIN32_IE
#undef
#endif
#define _WIN32_IE 0x501
and also
#ifdef _WIN32_WINNT
#undef
#endif
#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x501
now INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX is working fine... but i am getting error with InitCommonControlsEx(...)
error is
[linker error] undefined reference to `InitCommonControlsEx@4'
i am using Dev-C++ 4.9.9.2 compiler
can someone suggest me something...
thanx in advance....
bye have a nice day.....

hey its working now...
what u need to do is just link library....
in case of devc++ ists libcomctrl32.a

Dear All
Hi
In one heavy project which creates 23 threads in one process, sometimes programs exits without any exception.
We set drwtsn32 to catch any exception but we find that no exception occurs.
program is executed in Windows 2000 service pack 5 OS.
some log files shows that before program exits, some time critical threads report time out, and then program exits and all thread destroyed.
If exception is the reason of such problem then dr watson should log it but no exception is reported.
If you know what is the reason of this problem please let me know.
Regards
Monhi

I use transparentblt to display an overlay color image?
::TransparentBlt(pDC->GetSafeHdc(),upperLeftX,
upperLeftY, width, height,
paintMemory.GetSafeHdc(),0,0,width,height,RGB(0,0,0)) ;
where paintMemory is contains color pixels using method call
paintMemory.SetPixel(CPoint(x,y),RGB(255,0,0);
the color image is display correctly. How can I clear this overlay?

Draw something else over the top of it?
I'm curious why you use the CDC class but you go through the extra trouble
of extracting the HDCs from the CDC objects to call a GDI API directly instead of
using the CDC method CDC::TrasparentBlt()...?

I am not sure what you mean? Can you give me
an example?

It depends on what you mean by "clear this overlay"
For the TransparentBlt call...
::TransparentBlt(pDC->GetSafeHdc(),upperLeftX,upperLeftY, width, height,
paintMemory.GetSafeHdc(),0,0,width,height,RGB(0,0,0)) ;
could be
pDC->TransparentBlt(upperLeftX, upperLeftY, width, height,
&paintMemory,0,0,width,height,RGB(0,0,0)) ;

For my application, I display paintMemory using ::transparentBlt in red using paintMemory.SetPixel(point(x,y),RGB(255,0,0)) But I don't know how to clear this paintMemory to transparency by reseting paintMemory.SetPixel(point(x,y),RGB(0,0,0)).
I have an greyimage display in the background and would like to paint an color image using paintMemory to paint a color on top of this image without destructing the content of the greyimage. Once I draw complete I would like to see this greyimage background back by clearing the painMemory by setting color of paintMemory pixel back to color RGB(0,0,0).
But It doesn't work.

paintMemory is a memory DC, correct?
An easier and possibly faster way to clear the entire bitmap associated with the DC is something like:
paintMemory.FillSolidRect(0, 0, BitmapWidth, BitmapHeight(), RGB(0, 0, 0));
What's not working?

paintMemory is a memory DC.
Let do an example. I implement the following:
painMemory.FillSolidRect(0,0,BitmapWidth,BitmapHeight(),RGB(255,0,0));
::TransparentBlt(pDC->GetSafeHdc(),m_upperLeftX, 0,BitmapWidth,0,BitmapHeight,
paintMemory.GetSafeHdc(),0,0,BitmapWidth,BitmapHeight,RGB(0,0,0));
// At this point I see the overlay image is red.
// Then next is try to clear this overlay painMemory from red to RGB(0,0,0)
painMemory.FillSolidRect(0,0,BitmapWidth,BitmapHeight(),RGB(0,0,0));
::TransparentBlt(pDC->GetSafeHdc(),m_upperLeftX, 0,BitmapWidth,0,BitmapHeight,
paintMemory.GetSafeHdc(),0,0,BitmapWidth,BitmapHeight,RGB(0,0,0));
// At this point I still see the overly image is red instead of black
I need solution for this ASAP. Thanks

Are you drawing to the screen? Is this code in a WM_PAINT message handler (OnPaint())?
You can't erase - you need to redraw what was "underneath" the red.

Yes, I draw to the screen. I add WM_PAINT message handler OnPaint() as you suggested as shown
CMyView::OnPaint()
{
CPaintDC dc(this); // device context for painting
OnPrepareDC(&dc);
OnDraw(&dc);
}
And OnDraw(CDC pDC) I have GDI method to draw image on screen that always works.
After I implement OnPaint(). It still doesn't redraw image underneath the red.
Please Help!

I didn't suggest anything - I was asking.
You don't need an OnPaint override in a view since there's OnDraw().
You do, however, need to draw whatever you want to appear.
You can't draw something to the screen and then erase it, expecting to see
what was underneath it.
It's up to you to redraw the window without the overlay.
You can force a window to repaint by invalidating a portion (or all)
of the window with one of the Invalidate___() methods/APIs.
That will cause your OnDraw() to be called, where you can draw
whatever you want to appear on the window.

I want to convert a unsigned char string to other character set char string.
In UNIX,there have iconv() such functions to do the task,but how to do it in Windows,Especially using VC?
Thanks.
GOOD LUCK.

Because that,I want to output any language not only English.
When I output English,it works well but if the string contains another language,like Chinese,it does not work well.The output is wrong.
Thanks.

I'm timing a threading utility that pushes a bunch of work to the thread pool, executes the work, and then figures out how much time it has taken overall. The concept is really simple. That said, when I run the tests regularly in release mode with /O2 enabled, the time either takes 0.25s or 0.33s, and it randomly alternates between the two. Now, if I add a printf() statement right when the thread pool is shutting down, printing the number of work units that each thread has completed, the timing result is always 0.25s -- and by always, I mean 100%. It will never be 0.33s. In fact, I tried replacing this printf() statement with one that simply prints out "WTF?", and the result is the same (the time always ends up being 0.25s and never 0.33s). This makes me think that there is something with console operations that is changing the innards of my timing, however, I have no clue what it is.
For reference, I am using Visual C++ 2005, and QueryPerformanceCounter() / GetTickCount() to do my timing (I've used both, and they both give me these kinds of different results).
Anyone know what's going on?
EDIT: I forgot to mention one important thing. Here is how my timing works:
#1: Initialize thread pool
#2: Get count of start time
#3: Queue and process work
#4: Get count of end time
#5: Release thread pool
Now, we can truly understand the hilarity of these results, as the printf() statement, within the release of the thread pool, is not even within the count of the start and end! It's as if something I am doing in the future is changing the result of what is happening now.

Maybe overwritting your stack at some point ?
Put some Sleep calls to make the execution times longer see if they follow the time you set
