Yeah,
sorry
but you have mistaken my meaning
I want to know the path through Microvisual Studio 6.0 window not by programming
that is,look at Microvisual Studio 6.0 interface on computer screen and then know the path of my project
Have I expressed my meaning clear?

Thank you!
Now I know the way

I think that
it is not very easy
and the microsoft corps should show the path at a more outstanding position
thank you again!

What do you mean with the desktop of your application ? If it is in the toolbar, then you would consider using a rebar, with Chris' CHyperLink control.

I want to start DirectX programming. I get the SDK and samples with it, but I want some tutorial about how to begin. The document with the SDK is not good for beginnig.

IMHO, compared with what is available on the net, the SDK samples are not bad for getting started. There is a DirectX forum at <www.gamedev.net> You'll probably get more leads to tutorials from the posters there.

Good Luck with DirectX!

A problem about DeviceIoControl

FlyingDancer30-Jul-03 20:58

FlyingDancer

30-Jul-03 20:58

Here are some code about DeviceIoControl:
BTemp=DeviceIoControl
(
hDrive, // handle to device
IOCTL_STORAGE_CHECK_VERIFY, // dwIoControlCode operation
NULL, // lpInBuffer; must be NULL
0, // nInBufferSize; must be zero
NULL, // lpOutBuffer; must be NULL
0, // nOutBufferSize; must be zero
&BytesReturned, // number of bytes returned
NULL // OVERLAPPED structure
);
this function "DeviceIoControl" is to check whether the floppy disk has been changed(If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.If the function fails, the return value is zero.)
Something wrong happens here:
BTemp is a minus when I test on a wrong floppy device which does not work well while it is plus when on a work-well floppy device
does this mean that a returned minus value says the floppy device is error?

GetDlgItemInt has two more parameters. The actual syntax is: UINT GetDlgItemInt( int nID, BOOL* lpTrans = NULL, BOOL bSigned = TRUE ) const;
If the edit box doesn't contain a valid numeric value then pTrans would become 0.

BOOL pTrans;
int iValue = GetDlgItemInt( IDC_EDIT1, &pTrans );
if( pTrans == 0 )
    AfxMessageBox( "Please enter a numerical value!");
else
    set.m_access_attribute = iValue;

I haven't tried to compile the code so it might contain errors.
Another way is to force the edit box accept only integers and that can be done in the resource editor. Right-click on the edit box, select properties, and then in the styles tab select Number.

If your program is dialog based, then how did you attach a toolbar to it?
Anyways, since you didn't accept the answer from Eugene (sorry if I misspelled the name), then you can try something like this (only if the toolbar is dialog based):

// TRUE to enable, FALSE to disable<br />
GetDlgItem( IDC_TOOLBAR_ITEM )->EnableWindow( TRUE );

How to save Directory list for each project in VC++6.0?

In Visual C++ 6.0, when I set Directory list in menu "Tools->Options...->Directories", the Directory list is used for every project. If I open new project, I must enter new Directory list. How can I set the Directory list for each project? I'm boring to set new Directory list every time I open new project.

Hi,

use your project-settings.

For include files: project-settings -> C/C++ -> Preprocessor : "Additional include directories"

For Lib files: project-settings -> Link -> Input : "Additional library path"

I want to control 'richedit sting color'.
Fisrt step,,,,
I used CRicheditCtrl member,,,,
I accessed directly RTF-formated string.
and,select string,and set RTF-formated string.
because of selecting string,the program affect scroll bar and cursor.
ofcourse,I can used CRichEditCtrl::SetSel.But For a moment, the selection range flickers.

Second Step,,,
I used ITextRange member,,,,
But A program needs to convert "CString(char*)-index" to "CRichEditCtrl(GetSel)-index", in order to use a member.

How do I convert "CRichEditCtrl::GetSel index" to "CString(char*) index"?

or

How do I convert "CString(char*) index" to "CRichEditCtrl::GetSel index"?
