If you continuously step the progress bar inside a loop, it will not get a chance to paint. So what you have to do is Create a thread, and call CreatingExe() from that thread.
If you are not doing any other processing, you can and a timer and set the progree bar position from that function.

Please let me know how should I be able to get the values from a property file. I am badly stuck with this.
THanks
|
|

|

What do you call a property file exactly ? Please provide a precise description of what you are trying to achieve.
|
|
|
|

Property files are those which have key's and its values..
Following is the listing of my property file. Which I hav to read and get the values.. The left of '=' is key and right side is value.
#Details about files
file_name=lg
Max_file_size=1
No_of_file_backups=5
# modes
Mode_min=MIN
Mode_mid=MID
Mode_max=MAX

What did you already try, where are you stuck ? (please, see the posting guidelines at the top of this message board)

I might have to use some getproperty() function. In which we specify the key. This function returns the associated value to the key in the properties file. This is what I know. Now I don't know how to use getproperty() function. What's it's syntax and the header file to be included in the project.

Sorry, never heard about such function  . Is that a proprietary function ? If yes, then we won't be able to help you a lot, you should ask the guy who wrote the function how to use it.
(BTW, are you working in C++ ? )

Yes I am working on C++. This is an inbuilt funtion in some header file. that I am not able to figure out.

It needs to extract files to a directory according to where the application is installed.

You can get it searching for the application folder in registry or just listing the contents of the hard disk till you find it, then extract the files there where you need. The NSIS allows you to make the installator using conrecte scripting and selecting folders dinamically (choosen by the user or given internally), reading/writing to the registry and many other features.
But I think there is not any tool to make it all automatic. You should programm it by yourself

Dear friends,
I've a log file and this file is getting updated regularly. Now i want to develop an application which *monitors* this file and display the contents of this file. If there is any new addition in this file, the application should immediately update the text in GUI window ? How can i do so.

I'm writing MFC dialog based application.
I changes the background's color from the default Grey one.
How can I change also the menu color? I can't find how to do it.
Thanks, for any help.

If you want to change the background color of menu bar then you will have to use owner drawn menus. One good article is this[^]. There are more articles at http://www.codeproject.com/KB/menus/index.aspx[^].
If you want to change the background of the popup menu then try this code.
CMenu* menu = GetMenu();
MENUINFO mInfo = {0};
mInfo.cbSize = sizeof(MENUINFO);
mInfo.fMask = MIM_APPLYTOSUBMENUS | MIM_BACKGROUND;
mInfo.hbrBack = CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0, 255, 0));
menu->SetMenuInfo(&mInfo);

Hello,
I want to change the foreground colour of CStatic class.But the window styles or static such as SS_BLACKRECT,SS_WHITERECT doesb't have any effect on the CStatic window.
What must be the problem?

By "foreground colour", do you mean the text color?
If so, you could add a handler for the WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC message in the
control's parent which sets the color, something like:
ON_MESSAGE(WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC, &CMyDlg::OnCtlColorStatic)
...
LRESULT CMyDlg::OnCtlColorStatic(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
HDC hDC = (HDC)wParam;
LRESULT ret = Default();
::SetTextColor(hDC, RGB(0xFF,0x00,0x00));
return ret;
}

Hello,
Thanks for your reply
But actually I want to change the background colour of CStatic box.
The CStatic Box is on a CMDIChildWnd and not on a dialog.
I tried by calling GetDC() of CStatic and then call SetBkColour().But it seems the DC handle is not got properly with GetDC().
But CStatic->SetFont() works properly.
If I want to change the background colour Why the windows static styles don't work while creating the CStatic windows (i.e SS_BLACKRECT, SS_WHITERECT etc)
Sorry for miscommunication.
Regards
Pritha

For the background, your WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC handler needs to return a brush
that will be used to paint the background.
If there's text in the static control, you'll also want to set
the bkcolor, something like this:
CBrush RedBrush;
...
RedBrush.CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0xFF,0x00,0x00));
...
ON_MESSAGE(WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC, &CMyWnd::OnCtlColorStatic)
...
LRESULT CMyWnd::OnCtlColorStatic(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
HDC hDC = (HDC)wParam;
::SetTextColor(hDC, RGB(0x00,0x00,0xFF));
::SetBkColor(hDC, RGB(0xFF,0x00,0x00));
return (LPARAM)(HBRUSH)RedBrush;
}
