You can use the MultiByteToWide char to convert the required strings to unicode.
Or you can explicitly use the wide version of the APIs, for example, GetWindowTextW etc.
Use wchar_t instead of char. Use wcscpy instead of strcpy.
Also constant string must be preceded with L (L"hello world")

The problem is that I already created the project without setting the Character set and I used declarations such as

CString str = ""; char temp[20];

. In addition to this I also used strcpy, strlen like methods. If I change the Character Set in the Project properties to "Unicode" then I need to change all the above and this is not at all simple. Even though if I change all the strings, some of my classes does not support Unicode char set. Now I am in deep trouble to solve this issue.

The real work for me now is to display the characters such as ►♂↨∟↑•↕ in a text box. Please tell me and help me how can I display these characters without changing the Character set in project properties.

P.S : I already using Character set as "Not Set"

Please help me Frown | :(

I already told that it is not possible to change all the datatypes and string assignments and some of my classes doesn't support Unicode. Please give me a good solution.

Like I said before use the wide versions of the API only for those strings.

Hey Bhanu,,
Y dont you try out this,,
Say you wanna display "↨↔♀☺☻♥♦♣" on the MFC window..
create an array of type unsigend short with the decimal values of these symbols.say,

wchar_t mySymbols[]={8616, 8595, ...., ...., ...., 0000};
//(make sure array ends with 0000);
//this unicode values u can get from MSWord[Menu->Insert->Symbols)
//then
CString symbolText(mySymbols);
M_displaytext=symbolText;
or
M_displaytext=SetWindowText(symbolText);

.. think this will work out...

The CEdit control displays only ??. Please advice some other way.

wchar_t mySymbols[]={9664, 9824, 0000};
CString symbolText(mySymbols);
Edit.SetWindowText(symbolText);

nope i tried it before sending the last post, also make sure u have used the macros _UNICODE and UNICODE, y dont u give it a go for variable of type CString of that EditBox and then m_EditMessage=symbolText;
but the Edit control has to work,,,i wonder,
also check whether it can read the unicodes

if(symbolText.GetAt(0) == 0xFEFF)
{
Edit.SetWindowText(symbolText);
}
else
MessageBox("\nOoops Sorry,, I gave UP..!!! Smile | :)

hi all,

I have a MfcOutlookbar which is fixed at the left side of my application. Is there a way to make this as Auto-hide Bar like CDockablePane.

Thanks in Advance

Samir

I don't know - but looking at the documentation, CMfcOutlookBar inherits a method called "HasAutoHideMode" from CBaseTabbedPane - it also has a method called "SetAutoHideMode". Why not experiment - try calling that method from your application and see if your Outlook bar auto-hides...

Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p

Sir,

So is there any other way i can achieve it?? The the problem is that i have already done all the functionality on the outlook bar.. can i add the full CMFCOutlookBar on CDockablepane?? i have tried that also but it is also not working.. Confused | :confused:

I dont kno if i m wrong but adding all my functionality to individual pCDockablepane and then docking it will help??

Thanks in Advance

It may be a little late, but here's how I'm doing it:

1) In the frame-window's OnCreate() method, I add the following code just before the call to CreateOutlookToolbar()

<br />
// enable Visual Studio 2005 style docking window auto-hide behavior<br />
EnableAutoHidePanes(CBRS_ALIGN_ANY);<br />

2) In the CreateOutlookToolbar() method, I change the call to bar.Create() to include ControlBarStyles as illustrated below:

<br />
if (!bar.Create(strTemp, this, CRect(0, 0, nInitialWidth, 32000), uiID, WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | CBRS_LEFT, AFX_CBRS_AUTOHIDE | AFX_CBRS_RESIZE))<br />
{<br />
  return FALSE; // fail to create<br />
}<br />

Quite simple really, but with one slight draw-back: you don't get to see the stick-pin icon! No, in order to actually have the outlook bar auto-hide, you have to right-click the caption on top... Not a big deal for me - I'm gonna try and fix it later, but for now it will do.

Hope this helps,
Jumpster

Edit: Realized I missed a step... Added it as step 1 above.

Better late than never.

If found that you can display a pin by adding a gripper to the outlook bar using the following code (notice the additional CBRS_GRIPPER style):

if (!bar.Create(strTemp, this, CRect(0, 0, nInitialWidth, 32000), uiID, WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | CBRS_LEFT | CBRS_GRIPPER, AFX_CBRS_AUTOHIDE | AFX_CBRS_RESIZE))
{
return FALSE; // fail to create
}

Unfortunately, you do get a duplication of the current name of the pane in the gripper as well as the underlying CMFCOutlookBarTabCtrl.

sorry to being sarcastic! i think you are learning MFC.. Try to search Class reference in MSDN.

This will help in future, if not now. anyways CString::Find can resolve your problem

You can use StrStrI function.For using it u need to include "shlwapi.h"

e.g
CString Str="dc.xml,Copy";
LPTSTR pExist = StrStrI(Str, L"Copy");
if(pExist)
printf("Str contains Copy");
else
printf("Str does not contains Copy");

Why would you not use the find method that's built into CString, if CString is already being used? Not to mention that you will need to explicitly link to shlwapi.lib! Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

Please help me.

thanx in advance

Note:May be this is not the right forum,but i dont know which technology or programing lang i should use)
