Could this be related to the DPI setting in windows? The user can set the DPI for the screen (so he gets bigger or smaller fonts, RightClick desktop, properties, dispay, advanced, Screen DPI). We had issues with this too since the dialog units the resource editor works with depend on the font setting, as you said in your post. Maythe the users who experienced that bug had a different than default DPI setting on their desktops.

Yup. You're right. By changing the DPI on my system, I was able to recreate the bug.
What was your solution for this? Or is there one?
My stopgap approach is to use MoveWindow() to manually set the control positions on the dialog box. While this works, it's very tedious.

Well, i think your problem is that while your controls get positioned and sized according to the font setting, your background images don't. What i did was to stretch the background bitmap to make it bigger or smaller as needed (mostly based on the containing window size, since this gets bigger or smaller too). This can make the interface a bit blurry because of the stretching (also stretch-blitting is a slow process) but for one, it's still better than it getting scrembled and two, if the user doesn't want to (or cannot) use the default DPI setting, he should accept that this will make the interface look a bit less crisp. Something for something...
Btw we are not the only one who didn't originally think of this case, when you have a different DPI setting and you log out of windows it displays the "Saving your settings window", and the header of this window doesn't fill fully the area it was given...looks a bit lame... 
p.s: i changed my displayed name in the meantime (Anthony S. -> Code-o-mat), don't get confused, it's still me.

Please help!
My program is working alright in XP, but the editbox of it is non-working in Vista! Why???

Without providing any more information, it could be most anything. Does it happen with all edit controls, or just a specific one? Does it happen with a new project having default options, or just a specific one that you've been working on?

Hi,
After I've converted my MFC application from VS2005 to VS2008 in the debug runtime I've got error:
"Unable to start program C:\Proj\...\Conv1.exe
This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect.
For more details, please see the application event log."
In event viewer I've found error:
Source:SideBySide
Event ID: 59
Description: Generate Activation Context failed for C:\Proj\...\Conv1.exe. Reference error message: The referenced assembly is not installed on your system.
When I looed into manifest I've found dependencies on MFC and CRT of both VC90/VC80 (VS2005/2008).
I have to somehow get rid of VC80 dependencies in the manifest.
- HOW CAN I DO THAT???
Thanks in advance.

This means you are using some library which was compiled with VC8.0.

Thanks for the hint.
This means I have to recompile all MFC dependent libraries with VS2008, and thereafter convert the project?

Please consider the following simply C++ program:
<br />
#include <iostream><br />
#include <cassert><br />
<br />
using namespace std;<br />
<br />
class A {<br />
public:<br />
int operator ++(int z)<br />
{<br />
cout << "++ called with " << z << endl;<br />
return 5;<br />
}<br />
int operator *( int z )<br />
{<br />
cout << "* called with " << z << endl;<br />
return 5;<br />
}<br />
int x;<br />
};<br />
<br />
int<br />
main()<br />
{<br />
A a;<br />
a.x = 25;<br />
a ++;<br />
a * 35 ;<br />
}<br />
<br />
In this case, the class A is defining two operators: ++ and *. For the operator *, I specify only one argument because I expect the first operand to be represented by the this pointer. This works as I would expect. Now for the operator ++. Since this is a unary operator, I would expect the function declaration not to have any arguments. However, it works with one argument. By the way, the expression, a ++ 5 does not compile.
Could somebody please tell me what I am missing?

The overload can't break the rule that the operator ++ is a unary operator!

Hope this is a simple question with a simple answer...
I am creating a modeless CPropertySheet object using CPropertySheet::Create( ).
What I want is:
1. Modeless
2. pParentWnd to be desktop (?) - so its focus NOT tied to the app which launched it.
3. its look to resemble the default look of a CDialog::doModal() instance
What do I supply for the DWORD dwStyle (and possibly dwExStyle) parameters for ::Create( )?
p.s.
I am still having problems with the FOCUS. What I need is for my popup, modeless property sheet to remain in the forefront (on top) of the window that launched it.
Tried UNsuccessfully with calling the constructor with CWnd::GetDesktopWindow() as well as the create function.
Thank you.

Hi !
I would to know how to generate a key with the ECDSA algorithm from openssl
or do I have to use the ECDH algorithm for that?
If I have to use ECDH, how do I generate a key ? ECDH is only to share a
secret key.
An other question: I am doing cryptography with EDCSA an/or ECDH I would
like to use less code lines from openssl as possible. What should I keep or
leave from the code.
Thanks! Hope you will understand my question.

Hi,

when i do m_strOutput += _T("\n") expecting the next time string to be printed in next line , the string is not printed in next line but appended to previous string.... How to go to next line in edit control????

Have you tried \r\n instead?

yes i tried that also but no result

Does the control have the ES_MULTILINE style?

you should try to do this: m_strOutput+=_T("\r\n")

Maybe this is not the best forum to answer my question, but because plugins can be written in C++ I hope somebody who is making them will answer
Can somebody tell me if browser plugins for IE (activeX) or firefox can read (any) files on the HDD? (when they know exact path).
Somebody have told me that it is insecure to store sensitive data into "application data" folder because it can be accesses by web plugins.
Is it true? I'd guess they can access any files/folders with active user permissions.
Thank you

Since the code is C++, why wouldn't they be able to? See here for BHO examples.
