Yes. The fact that the dialog based application was invoked via ShellExecute() is irrelevant.

Hello,
It sounds crazy but how can I disable and hide my current view in my SDI app (CHtmlView) (and afterwards display it again)? [1]
I've tried SetVisible and EnableWindow but it does not work.
Background: In a modal dialog I temporarily load a different page for printing. The user should not see that there is another page loading or printing.
Regards,
Niki
[1] With hide/disable I mean e.g. that the current view is just white or even better: just frozen.

ShowWindow[^](SW_HIDE) and ShowWindow(SW_SHOW) could do the trick

Thank you!
This seems to do exactly what I was looking for!

How to change picture control size(width) at runtime?
I want to resize it in OnSize of formview.

You can use the MoveWindow()[^] function.

Do you want to change size of picture or control? if its control you can use of SetWindowPos,too.

How i can get the list of processes currently running in Windows CE remote process viewer?

Hi,
I'm trying since a while to add some counters to perfmon.
Searching through MSDN brought me to those interesting pages:
Performance Monitoring Reference
Manually Defining Performance Objects
I tried the code snippets given by MS in the second link and it compiled,
but I didn't saw any new Objects in perfmon when running it.
So I instantiated an object of each class (MyPerfObject, MyPerfMonManager) and checked the available methods from the PerfMonManager, also without success.
Has anyone some knowledge about this theme and can give me a working example?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
In my application, I send a print command to my view from a (modal) dialog:
pView->OnCmdMsg(ID_FILE_PRINT, 0, 0, 0);
How can I wait until the printing process has been finished?
Background: In my dialog I want to be able to print other data than loaded into the current view. For this purpose, I save the state of the current view, load another document, print it and afterthe document has finished printing I reload the old document again and close the dialog.
Thank you and regards,
Niki

I have forgotten a very important issue: The view is a CHtmlView. So my view does not have an own printing mechanism
|

Printing is heavily abstracted in windows - this is one of the main selling points they had waaaaaaay back when. But that means you shove data at the print spooler - and you know when that is finished.
But that may then shove data at some remote machine which may or may not complete then.
That may then go to a fancy print system which could batch your print for late at night, for its own convenience.
None of this gets fed back to you.
You could do this:
while (1)
{
if (MessageBox (_T("Has the paper come out yet?"), MB_YESNO | MB_ICONQUESTION) == IDYES)
break;
}
Being slightly serious, the OnCmdMsg (ID_FILE_PRINT, 0, 0, 0) shouldn't return until it's finished its bit of the printing process.

Hello and thank you for your answer!
I do not want to check if the document has printed successfully but it should just be successfully appended to the queue (before the new document is loaded).
I think I managed this (the following code is done in a modal dialog):
CString currentUrl = pView->GetLocationURL();
pView->Pall();
while(pView->GetReadyState() != READYSTATE_COMPLETE)
{
((CMyApp*)AfxGetApp())->Yeild();
}
pView->OnCmdMsg(ID_FILE_PRINT, 0, 0, 0);
pView->Navigate(currentUrl);
EndDialog(FALSE);
The OnCmdMsg(ID_FILE_PRINT) does nothing more than ExecWB(OLECMDID_PRINT,...) in the IWebBrowser2.
And now my "backup question" is.
You said:
"Being slightly serious, the OnCmdMsg (ID_FILE_PRINT, 0, 0, 0) shouldn't return until it's finished its bit of the printing process."
Are you sure that ExecWB(OLECMDID_PRINT,...) will block until the currently loaded document has been printed so that I can issue the next Navigate(...) call just afterwards?
In my tests it works but I am not sure about this.
Regards,
Niki

I confess I have not printed from an HtmlView, so take my logic with some skepticism.
From the docs:
Executes a command on an OLE object and returns the status of the command execution using the IOleCommandTarget interface.
It does not say "queue up some thready thing". So S_OK, means the job is *done*.

You could obtain a PRINTER_INFO_2[^] structure which contains the number of jobs in the printer que. The Status member should return PRINTER_STATUS_PRINTING while printing and PRINTER_STATUS_WAITING when finished.
If you wanted to track individual print jobs you could use the JOB_INFO_1[^] or other associated print job structures to track the job. The Status member will return JOB_STATUS_PRINTED when the job has completed. It should be noted that older printers and/or port monitor drivers may always return JOB_STATUS_PRINTED information for job status. Your mileage may vary.
Some documentation:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/158828[^]
Some sample code:
#include <winspool.h>
HANDLE YourClass::OpenDefaultPrinter(ACCESS_MASK dwMask)
{
HANDLE hPrinter = INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE;
PRINTER_DEFAULTS pDef;
DWORD dwSize;
ZeroMemory(&pDef, sizeof(pDef));
GetDefaultPrinter(NULL, &dwSize);
TCHAR* szBuffer = new TCHAR[dwSize];
if(NULL != szBuffer)
{
if(GetDefaultPrinter(szBuffer, &dwSize))
{
pDef.DesiredAccess = dwMask;
OpenPrinter(szBuffer, &hPrinter, &pDef);
}
delete szBuffer;
}
return hPrinter;
}
DWORD YourClass::GetPrintQueCount()
{
DWORD dwNeeded = NULL;
PRINTER_INFO_2 *pInfo = NULL;
DWORD dwRet = 0;
HANDLE hPrinter = OpenDefaultPrinter();
if(INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE != hPrinter)
{
GetPrinter(hPrinter, 2, (LPBYTE)pInfo, 0, &dwNeeded);
if(0 < dwNeeded)
{
pInfo = static_cast<PRINTER_INFO_2 *>(GlobalAlloc(GPTR, dwNeeded));
if(NULL != pInfo)
{
if(GetPrinter(hPrinter, 2, (LPBYTE)pInfo, dwNeeded, &dwNeeded))
{
dwRet = pInfo->cJobs;
}
}
GlobalFree(pInfo);
}
ClosePrinter(hPrinter);
}
return dwRet;
}
Good Luck,

How to change rectangle backround of tooltip window to other shape?
|
|

Have a look at TTS_BALLOON.
Beyonf that, do a search here on codeproject for all sorts of tooltip replacements. The built in class is handy, but it runs out of unsefulness VERY rapidly.

System: Windows XP / Vista / 32 / 64
Language: C++
I need information about all network controllers
of the PC my application is running on.
(Usually 1 onBoard and 1 additional network card)
And I need their maximum transfer rate
(10MBit, 100MBit or 1GBit)
I already know how to get their IP-addresses
with gethostbyname() and the h_addr_list.
But on that way I don't get any info about their
maximum speed. (maybe the card is a 1GBit controller,
but it is connected with a 100MBit switch...
then the current max. speed should be 100MBit)
Thanks for your help

The MIB_IFROW Structure[^] can tell you the network speed for each device.
Sample usage:
#include "Iphlpapi.h"
#pragma comment(lib, "iphlpapi.lib")
VOID CNetworkToolBox::EnumNetworkSpeeds()
{
BYTE *pBuf=NULL;
DWORD dwSize=0;
DWORD dwResult=0;
PMIB_IFTABLE pMIBTable;
GetIfTable(NULL,&dwSize,FALSE);
pBuf=new BYTE[dwSize];
pMIBTable=reinterpret_cast <PMIB_IFTABLE >(pBuf);
CString szBuf;
if(NO_ERROR == GetIfTable(pMIBTable,&dwSize,FALSE))
{
for(UINT i=0; i < pMIBTable->dwNumEntries; ++i)
{
if(MIB_IF_TYPE_LOOPBACK != pMIBTable->table[i].dwType)
{
if(MIB_IF_OPER_STATUS_CONNECTED == pMIBTable->table[i].dwOperStatus
|| MIB_IF_OPER_STATUS_OPERATIONAL == pMIBTable->table[i].dwOperStatus)
{
szBuf.Format("%d@%s",pMIBTable->table[i].dwIndex,pMIBTable->table[i].bDescr);
TRACE2(_T("%s network speed in bits per second: %ld\n"),szBuf,pMIBTable->table[i].dwSpeed);
}
}
}
}
delete []pBuf;
}
Best Wishes,

The overall throughput will be 100M, but the NIC itself will be 1G to the switch.
