if I cut and paste the definitions of the member function of the templated class into the header file then everything links up fine.
That's a known problem of the VC compiler. If you are stuck using VC you'll need to organize your code like that, and just look forward to being a newt.

That's the way templates are supposed to work.
The ANSI C++ Committee created a special keyword, called "export" to allow you to put non-inlined functions outside of the translation unit, but no compiler yet supports this (not just VC).
One work around is to #include the .cpp file at the end of your .h file, which is weird, but it will allow you to more easily port it at a later date when "export" becomes supported.
The reason for this has to do with template expansion. Since the template expansion happens in the translation unit that is using the template, that means when your templates cpp file is compiled, it doesn't know what other template instantiations to create.

With templates you have no choice.  Sorry.
I try to keep my paramatized classes as small as humanly possible.

This is one of those problems that would have been a nagging doubt for a long time.

Hi all,
I am looking for an example demonstrating how to build a sliding window, like the one that slides up above the system tray when a new message comes. If you can provide a link or brief example, you'd really help me out. Thanks in advance.

Hi folks. I decided to start collecting FAQs from this forum, and below is a list of the questions I could remember, along with a really brief answer. I'll expand on the answers in the final FAQ, naturally.
If you can think of any additional ones, please mail them to me at mike@codeproject.com.- Why don't my #include lines show up right in the forum? [Use < and > instead of < >]
- I'm trying to call a Windows API, but the compiler gives an undeclared identifier error. What's up? [#define the right values for WINVER, _WIN32_WINNT, _WIN32_IE]
- Why do I get an unresolved external on main() in ATL project release builds? [#undef _ATL_MIN_CRT]
- I added some source files I got from someone else and the compiler says "couldn't find precompiled header." What's up? [#include "stdafx.h" or disable use of PCHs as appropriate]
- Thanks. Now, what's a PCH?
- What does a debug assert failed mean? [you have a bug]
- How do I change the background color of a dialog, or draw a picture as the background? [WM_ERASEBKGND]
- How do I change the cursor when it's in my window? [WM_SETCURSOR]
- How do I show/hide a window? [ShowWindow()]
- How do I enable/disable a dialog control (button, etc)? [EnableWindow()]
- In my MFC app, why doesn't EnableMenuItem() have any effect? [Use ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI instead]
- Why can't I use a member function as a callback? [Make it static, or use a global function and pass it this, then call pThis->MemberFunc()]
- I'm trying to use cout and cin, but the compiler gives an undeclared identifier error. What's up? [std::cout or using namespace std]

Hi All!
If I have, for example, the bits of a DIBSection and I want to set it to a given (32 bit) color, I could say:
(1)
for (int i=0; i<nPixels; i++) pbits[i] = mycolor;
or:
(2)
__int32 *p=pbits;
while (p<pbits+nPixels) *p++ = mycolor;
but if I wanted to set it to black (or a similar color where the components are all the same) then I could just say:
(3)
memset(pbits, 0, nPixels*4);
So I guess I'm wondering if there's a way to replace (1) and (2) by a built-in function that I don't know about but which looks something like:
memset_32_at_a_time(pbits, mycolor, nPixels);
(and which would presumably be faster than either of the first two methods)
Thanks for any help with this!

You might use std::fill or std::fill_n. There are no C runtime library functions for this.
|
|
|
|

Alex,
memset does almost exactly what you do in your second function (unless you using an Alpha or PowerPC chip set, which calls RtlFillMemory). You could use memcpy in a loop, but I doubt it would give you any enhancements in speed.

Thanks for the responses!
Continuing on Ben's idea, I could manually set the values of the first scanline and then memcpy it to the other scanlines. However my original goal wasn't mainly speed gain but rather to make the code nicer, so I guess I'll give it a miss and just set the values manually

I am building a library that will be linked to dynamically by other applications. In the library I load strings from the resource string table for the DLL using CString::LoadString(nID). The problem is that once the DLL is loaded, CString::LoadString(nID) tries to load the string resource from the applications resource table, rather than the DLLs.
I have tried setting the resource handle (using AfxSetResourceHandle(…)) both sides of the call, but it still looks for the string in the applications resource.
How can I get it so an calls in the DLL’s code to CString::LoadString(nID) load the string from the DLL’s resource table, and any calls in the application’s code load the string from the app’s resource table. Get it?
Any help would be appreciated. I have tried searching my installed MSDN, but nothing came up that I could see to be useful.
Cheers,
James Millson

try the ::LoadString API function (instead of CString::LoadString).

I still haven't been able to solve my problem with the ::IsWindow asserting in the dll when call SetWindowText() in the dll for the main application dialog.
To make this more understandable I have upload a test application that shows the problem. full source code is attached with it and you must rebuild it, I delete all object and exe files so the download will not take to long. The file is under 500k byte and includeds both the App and DLL.
-load the workspace for the app,.. this work spaces is setup so if you just rebuild all it should compile and run. When runnning you will notice that the DLL IsWindow fails?! why?! I need help here.
here is the link to download the test program:
www.marino.dk/misc/dlltest01.zip
plz note, always run the debug version!!

Try setting both the DLL and the exe to use either static or DLL MFC library.
Before fixing that, I couldn't link, after fixing that I couldn't crash.
|
|
|
|
|
ok, now I'm completly confused, but your solution seems to work?!
another strange thing is that the compiler can't find the AfxLoadLibrary when using static, which I also find very confusing.... I'm now trying to use your fix in my main project,.. hope it works,...
thx a lot

ps: finished testing in my main application,.. it works  jubii!!! If you ever come to Denmark then I'm buying you dinner

Hi all. I am very new to Visual C++ and would be grateful for some pointers for the following. I am attempting to embed a scrollable view into a form view. It would like a CScrollView, but obviously non-resizable. I have got as far as creating an object based on CWnd, embedded it into a form view and drawn into it, but I have no idea how to create a "canvas" larger than the size of the object and handle the mechanics of scrolling. Can anyone point me in the direction of some scrolling code, or tell me a way of doing it? Thanks

If you create a new dialog (ie: wizard), delete all the gadgets from it then go it its properties and turn on vertical scrolling. You will need to play with the SCROLLINFO structure (add a member of new dialog class).
eg:
CDialogContainer::OnInitDialog()
{
CDialog::OnInitDialog();
m_pScrollInfo = new SCROLLINFO;
m_pScrollInfo->cbSize = sizeof(SCROLLINFO);
m_pScrollInfo->fMask = SIF_ALL;
m_pScrollInfo->nMin = 0;
m_pScrollInfo->nMax = 100;
m_pScrollInfo->nPage = 10;
m_pScrollInfo->nPos = 0;
m_pScrollInfo->nTrackPos= 0;
this->SetScrollWindow();
...
}
You will also need :
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Method: OnVScroll
//
// Abstract: Maintains the scroll bar.
// Called automatically from the scrollbar events
// Also called manually to update the scrollbar after changes.
//
// Arguments:
//
// UINT nSBCode : The Scroll type
// UINT nPos : For ScrollType SB_THUMBPOSITION nPos is the new position
// CScrollBar* pScrollBar : Ignored (usually NULL anyway)
//
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

{
RECT rectClient;

int iScrollAmount = 0;
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
