hi,
just wondering,
dlg.SetWindowPos()
can u jsut call SetWindowPos in response to event - say OnTimer - to adjust the dialog position?
i can imagine a situation in which u create a modal/modeless dlg and u wish the dialog to stay within the boundary of its view.
in this scenario, do u need to create your own event - for the dialog class? how can u implement this? how can u check that the child dialog is out of place (out-of-predefined boundary) and the fire an even and thru message map i suppose we can handle the situation appropriately??
thanks!

I tried SetWindowPos() but it ASSERTS.
I was thinking that because I am calling DoModal(), I have lost control of the thing because MFC has taken over. Obviously, any attempts to adjust the position before DoModal() will ASSERT because the dialog window has yet to be created.
Any calls after DoModal() is pointless because MFC is in control.
I am trying a few different things right now.

hey there,
[QUOTE FROM CODE GURU]
u can do that by adding the virtual function pretranslatemessage
Eg:-
BOOL CUrDlg::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)
{
if((pMsg->message == WM_KEYDOWN) )
{
if(GetFocus()->GetSafeHwnd() == GetDlgItem(IDC_UR_EDITCTL_ID)->GetSafeHwnd())
//necessary action
}
return CDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);
}
good luck =)

Does anyone has an example on how to cancel a process? Like when the user press the Cancel button.
I tried _endthread() but I get 1st chance exception errors... What is the proper way?
Thanks!

I just used return; in the thread function and it seems to work... is this the proper way to do it?

_beginthread begins a thread of execution, not a process, second, it's evil, dump it and use _beginthreadex that have a appropriate Thread Information block(TIB) to properly clean the resources consumed by the thread.
Similarly the _endthread should not be used , use _endthreadex ... but it shouldn't use this either , the threads should exit for themselfs . You should create a event or binary semaphore (depending of what you want to achieve) and signal it to the thread that you want to cancel,then on the target thread that is expecting on a WaitforMultipleObjects(or similar), you catch the signed event(action) , clean up the resources , if you need to, and do a exit command(return ...) or exit simply by failling over the WaitFor ... loop ..

Hello,
I am trying to pull the text from a tool tip and put it into a CString.. The event fires but all I see in Debug mode is..
name =
name =
name =
Any suggestions?
void CMyTreeView::OnTvnGetInfoTip(NMHDR *pNMHDR, LRESULT *pResult)
{
LPNMTVGETINFOTIP pGetInfoTip = (LPNMTVGETINFOTIP)pNMHDR;
CString strTip = pGetInfoTip->pszText;
TRACE("name = %s\n",strTip);
*pResult = 0;
}

Never mind I figured it out

TVN - Tree view notification.
It is requesting the tool tip information from you. Not the other way around.

I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

|
|
|
|
I was able to do this..
CString strTip = GetTreeCtrl().GetItemText(pGetInfoTip->hItem);

Still on the freakishly devilish CControlBars problem ...
I'm knee deep in MFC code right now, CDockContext  , and I'd like to be able to trace CDockContext::CanDock, since it's called rather frequently, when moving a floating controlbar, I'd like to be able to find a way to trace it.
Same thing for CFrameWnd::CanDock ( winfram2.cpp ) ...
I'd like to ba able to tell the debugger, well, don't stop at this breakpoint, but just tell me that it should be triggered ...
Any Idea ?
Max.

I can't ( can I ? ) use TRACE in those files ( MFC's winfrm2.cpp and dockcont.cpp ), and I don't want to mess up MFC code ...

Hi guys
I'm developping an application that uses a database. And this database has to be updated from an internet adress.
The question is.
Could you propose me the way to do this automatically?
In other words There is a way to download a file from internet and substitute the actual database in the application directory?
Sorry if this questio looks silly to you, but I don't know how to do it, because I don't know how detect if the file download has benn completed.
Best regards
Doctor Pi

first if u using a db like sql server u cant just dnload files cos it doesnt work that way ... to detect if a file has dnloaded correctly u can put a checksum in it and verify that on receipt of the file ... to update the db (assuming u mean data) send a file in a format ur comfy with and use that to update the data from ... if ur changing the schema or stored procs etc use a file containing the sql queries to do the update
hope this helps

Hello all,
I have a question concerning opening new windows. Currently, I have a MDI project that does not have doc/view support. It opens bitmaps. When I open a bitmap, it opens it to the main window. When I click File->New a new window appears. These features are great, yet I can't seem to combine them. I'd liek the bitmap to open into a new window. I can open bitmaps over and over and over again, but it always just replaces the current one. How can I get the bitmap to open into a new window?
Any ideas anyone? Like the code for File->New
CMainFrame* pFrame = STATIC_DOWNCAST(CMainFrame, m_pMainWnd);
// create a new MDI child window
pFrame->CreateNewChild(
RUNTIME_CLASS(CChildFrame), IDR_NICKMITYPE, m_hMDIMenu, m_hMDIAccel);
How can I get this new window to open the bitmap into it, and not the background?
Thanks,
Nick Hughes

Since this isn't strickly a programming question ,you can post it on the lounge, you can also do a search on the lounge, since it was discussed a couple of times in the lounge itself.

I am writing an application where users can customize points on a map. As they configure and add a new point I use a static control to display an example point on the point-configuration dialog box. The problem I'm having is that even though I am using the same size to display the point on the dialog and to the view, the point in the dialog is half the size of the point on the view. I'm pretty sure this has to do with a difference in the point density of the DC I get to the static control and the DC I get to the view, but am not too sure where to start looking for a solution to this problem. Please could anyone offer some advice?
