I have used this code to check the value stored on memory and so I found the output like as explained.

<br />
	double x = 2;<br />
	unsigned char *str;<br />
	str = (unsigned char *)malloc(sizeof(unsigned char *));<br />
	str = (unsigned char *)&x;<br />
<br />
	CString st, str1;<br />
	str1 = "";<br />
	for(int i = 0; i < 8; i++)<br />
	{<br />
		st.Format(CString("%.2X "), *(str++));<br />
		str1.Append(st);<br />
	}<br />
	AfxMessageBox(str1);<br />
<br />

here the output like as below....

00 00 00 00 00 00 00 40 in messagebox.

The output is correct, what u have to do is to read it in reverse order. I think this is the solution Smile | :)

Thanks,

ya thats right

but i want the reverse process.

I have that reverse data('40 00 00 00 00 00 00 00') now i want its double value('2') of this data without storing it into memory

Any idea?

Thanks in advance

For this to happen, you need to convert the data from memory to equivalent binary and then to convert that binary to decimal.

I find this as a solution.

Woww what are you trying to do ??

ashishbhatt wrote:

This is plain wrong: you will allocate a memory of 4 bytes because unsigned char* is a pointer and a pointer is 4 bytes long. Is that what you want to do ? That's quite a strange way to work...

ashishbhatt wrote:
str = (unsigned char *)&x;

Here you will assign a new address to your str pointer, meaning that you will loose ownership of the previsously allocated memory (now it is 4 bytes of memory that are in memory and you can't access it anymore because you lost its address).

ashishbhatt wrote:
st.Format(CString("%.2X "), *(str++));

Why do you construct a CString inside the Format function ? Confused | :confused:

And what are you trying to do ??

So, I think your code is just plain wrong. Can you explain what you are trying to do exactly, maybe we'll be albe to help.

On a side note, you have to know that the bytes are stored in memory in an inverted way (on windows platforms).

I checked the code (had to do some corrections). And found that it displays same as that we can see in the Memory window at the time of debug. But you are expecting something different? Can you explain?

You cannot change these types in memory, because int and double have different sizes in memory.
Else you could have changed your type in memory like this:

int     nTst = 2;
double  dTmp = (double) nTst;
double* pTst = (double*)&nTst;
*pTst = dTmp;

Is this what you meant?

I want to make a particular item in listview bold after it is inserted, based on specific condition.
Below is the code that i am trying. But its not working. Can someone suggest me a way to do it

HFONT hDlgFont = (HFONT)SendMessage(get_Dialog(), WM_GETFONT, 0, 0L);
            if (NULL != hDlgFont) 
            {
                LOGFONT lFont;
                if (GetObject(hDlgFont, sizeof(LOGFONT), (LPSTR)&lFont)) 
                {
                    lFont.lfWeight = FW_BOLD;
                    hBoldFont = CreateFontIndirect(&lFont);
                }
            }

HWND hList;
LVITEM item;
//set attributes of item
ListView_InsertItem(hList, &item);

if (<condition>)
    SendMessage(GetDlgItem(hList,item.iItem), WM_SETFONT, (WPARAM)hBoldFont, 0L);

You have to use CustomDraw

You cannot change a perticular item of list control bold. If you want to do so, you have customdraw the list control. check this[^] for details of using the customdraw

For the sake of debug -- is there a way to determine that this thread is a UI thread (one based on CWinThread)?

IsGUIThread(...) is not an MFC function, and is only available on WinXP (and above).

Peace!

What is a "GUI thread?"

"Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for, in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it." - Ellen Goodman

"To have a respect for ourselves guides our morals; to have deference for others governs our manners." - Laurence Sterne

I think a thread that has some user interface with the user is called GUI thread. I mean a thread that has a window or message loop some thing like that... What do you think?
