Actually, I'm a beginner in writting Graphic related program. especially in C++.
I have no idea on the calculation for processing & converting the LAB to RGB. So I hope to find some examples with codings that I can easily to learn and understand .
Could you provide me some program examples if you have this experience.
Thanks a lot.

But documentation exists http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lab_color_space#Advantages_of_Lab[^].
There is also the very nice Guillaume Leparmentier's article [^] here at CP.

I guess, by using an array structure you can do this. For Example:
<br />
static COLORREF arColors[] = {<br />
RGB(0,255,0),<br />
RGB(0,255,255)<br />
};<br />
<br />
char* arNames[] = {<br />
"green",<br />
"cyan"<br />
};<br />
<br />
for(int i=0; i<2; i++)<br />
{<br />
arColors[i] = i;
arNames[i] = atof(i);<br />
}<br />

Thanks for you reply.
Can you provide me a sample code for converting Lab value to RGB value?
I've read some documents, they said the step should
1. convert Lab -> XYZ
2. convert XYZ -> RGB
I don't know how to write such calculations.

This is a constant RGB macros of the COLORREF structure. Anyway, from 0 to 255 numeric values are equivalence a 24-Bit COLORREF's scope. If you want to chance only RGB macros, you can use the
typedef struct tagCOLORREF structure.
Forexample:
<br />
#define XYZ(int i1, int i2, int i3) 0<br />
<br />
int* pNewInt = new int[255];<br />
pNewInt = NULL;<br />
#ifdef COLORREF<br />
for(int i=0; i<255; i++)<br />
{<br />
RGB(pNewInt[i],pNewInt[i],pNewInt[i]) = XYZ(pNewInt[i],pNewInt[i],pNewInt[i]);<br />
}<br />
delete []pNewInt;<br />
#endif
That is must be a defined tagpoint struct what own yourself.

Dear friends,
I am opening the selected printer's document property dialog from my application.
I am using the following code
PRINTER_DEFAULTS PrinterDef = {NULL, NULL, PRINTER_ALL_ACCESS};
HANDLE hPrinter;
PDEVMODEW pDevmode = NULL;
if(OpenPrinter(PRINTER_NAME, &hPrinter, &PrinterDef))
{
int nSize = DocumentProperties(this->m_hWnd, hPrinter,
PRINTER_NAME, NULL, NULL, 0);
pDevmode = (PDEVMODEW)LocalAlloc(LPTR, nSize);
DocumentProperties(this->m_hWnd, hPrinter, PRINTER_NAME,
pDevmode, NULL, DM_IN_PROMPT );
ClosePrinter(hPrinter);
}
Now I want to cature the paper size changes made by the user on document property dialog.
Please Help.

Check out these two code paths:
float s = 1.0f + pow(2.0f,-8.0f) + pow(2.0f,-18.0f);
float fRes1 = 1024 * s;
float fRes2 = 0.0f;
for(int i=0; i<1024; ++i)
fRes2 +=s;
now watch the results:
fRes1: 1028.0039
fRes2: 1028.0002
This was tested on Intel Dual-core, VS2005. the direct multiplication was compiled to use fmul, the accumulation was compiled to use fadd. The scalar value s was crafted to know analytically which is the correct result. it is fRes1 (the fmul result).
Can anyone shed some light on the source of the difference??
it can't be (i think) a direct precision issue - all arguments and intermediate values are *exactly* representable in single precision.
any insight would be greatly appreciated!

It's of float issue. Using double instead will solve this.

I think the opposite.

for instance, when executing s*1023 + s sum, you cannot line up the addition arguments without precision loss.

I replaced all occurrences of float with double, and removed all the tail f, then the results match.

Of course, because you're cheating!
double numbers have a 52 bit mantissa (float have a 23 bit one) and, for instance, OP's s*1023 and s numbers can be comfortably lined up for addition without precision loss.

Maxwell - thanks for your reply!
what do you mean by 'results match'? match mine, or match each other?
i already tried going double, and still got different results:
double d = 1.0 + pow(2.0,-8.0) + pow(2.0,-18.0);
double dRes1 = 1024 * d;
double dRes2 = 0.0;
for(int i=0; i<1024; ++i)
dRes2 +=d;
on my machine gives:
dRes1= 1028.0039062500000
dRes2= 1028.0002441406250
which didn't even budge the difference down.
do you get different results? on what machine/compiler?

My result:
dRes1 = 1028.003906250000000
dRes2 = 1028.003906250000000

Pallini - thanks, you're right of course, but i suspect there's more to it. going double didn't make any difference (see my post to Maxwell below).

I tried and got, like Maxwell Chen, the same result (1028.0039062500000) for both dRes1 and dRes2.
I'm using VC++ 2005 on Windows XP.

Sorry for the delay - just returned from lunch. Upon further investigation, the difference is between debug and release builds. Debug build compiles to fpu code:
00C1A579 fldz
00C1A57B fstp qword ptr [ebp-48h]
00C1A57E mov dword ptr [i],0
00C1A585 jmp CurrentFunction+0C0h (0C1A590h)
00C1A587 mov eax,dword ptr [i]
00C1A58A add eax,1
00C1A58D mov dword ptr [i],eax
00C1A590 cmp dword ptr [i],400h
00C1A597 jge CurrentFunction+0D4h (0C1A5A4h)
00C1A599 fld qword ptr [ebp-48h]
00C1A59C fadd qword ptr [ebp-28h]
00C1A59F fstp qword ptr [ebp-48h]
00C1A5A2 jmp CurrentFunction+0B7h (0C1A587h)
which gives the wrong result, while release builds SSE code (along with loop unrolling):
004CAB82 xorps xmm1,xmm1
004CAB85 mov eax,80h
004CAB8A lea ebx,[ebx]
004CAB90 sub eax,1
004CAB93 addsd xmm1,xmm0
004CAB97 addsd xmm1,xmm0
004CAB9B addsd xmm1,xmm0
004CAB9F addsd xmm1,xmm0
004CABA3 addsd xmm1,xmm0
004CABA7 addsd xmm1,xmm0
004CABAB addsd xmm1,xmm0
004CABAF addsd xmm1,xmm0
004CABB3 jne CurrentFunction+80h (4CAB90h)
004CABB5 movsd mmword ptr [esp+38h],xmm1
which gives an accurate result.
setting the FPU control word to double or extended double precision solved it - i guess either your FPU control word was already set right, or you tested it in release builds.
thanks for everyone's time!

The project created earlier a Direct3D device. Apparently [^] this changes by default the FPU precision to single.
Haven't decided yet whether to change creation params to use D3DCREATE_FPU_PRESERVE, or to surround the code where i (think i) need extra precision with manual precision set/restore. Either way - problem found.
Thanks everyone!

I want to set a timer to execute in every two minutes in visual C++. Please help

If you are using MFC, you can use CWnd::SetTimer[^]
BTW, don't forget your friend google...

::SetTimer(1, 120000, MyTest);
void CALLBACK MyTest(HWND hW, UINT msg, UINT ev, DWORD time) {

Perhaps you meant to use 120000 instead.

Hi Friends....
i have some doubts regarding with my project ..i am trouble and i dont know how to finish up this one..
Tis is my queries:
1.i have one file that file contains list of data.first i wanna convert
that data Cfile into CStringArray how its possible.i used these function
CFile Lfile;
CStringArray data;
data=Lfile.GetLenght();
is it right conversion to data converting CFile to CStringArray..its shows one error :
error C2679: binary '=' : no operator found which takes a right-hand operand of type 'ULONGLONG' (or there is no acceptable conversion)
how to cure it ? r wat method is suitable for converting CFile to CString Array.?
Thanks
