How do i transfer data to a property page?

Hi,

My prob is like this...

1) I have a CMain wh is the parent of several propertysheets, eg CPptySheet1.

2) After pressing a button on CMain, a modal dialog box pops up, CModal.

3) I change some values using CModal and i want the changes to be reflected in PptySheet1.

4) I cannot use OnInitDialog coz the ppty sheets are initialized b4 CModal.

5) I have also tried using OnSetActive...and even OnShowWindow.....but it doesnt work. How can i dynamically show changes, if there are any, every time the property sheet is shown? Please advise...thanks!

Use Messages defined by oneself.

And SendMessage(...);

Hi,

I am using VC++ 6.0 to write a Win32 console app. Does anyone know how I can read all the file names in a directory if user specifies the directory for input file(s)?
Thanks a lot!

try doing...

_finddata_t fileinfo;
long hFile;


_chdir( --dirname-- );


if( (hFile = _findfirst( "*", &fileinfo )) == -1L )
   --- no files in director ---
else
{
   do
   {
      --- called per file ---
      fileinfo.name contains the filname!

   } while( _findnext( hFile, &fileinfo ) == 0 );

   _findclose( hFile );
}

May I know what _chdir is? or what it means?
Is it part of the fileinfo structure?
Because I got an error msg for this.

thanks again. Big Grin | :-D

It changes to the specified directory (i.e., CWD).

Thanks. But CFileFind doesn't work in my case.
I am only writing a console app, not MFC.
(Or may be CFileFind can apply, but I don't know how.) Smile | :)

Try this:

HANDLE hFile;
WIN32_FIND_DATA wfd;

hFile = FindFirstFile("*.*", &wfd);

while ( FindNextFile(hFile, &wfd) != 0 )
{
     // your code here
     
     // include this is if you don't want the '.' and '..' to show up

     if ( (strcmp(wfd.cFileName, "..") != 0 ) && (strcmp(wfd.cFileName, ".")  != 0 )
             // your code here eg. cout << wfd.cFileName << endl;

    // include something like this if you don't want the directories:
    if (wfd.dwFileAttributes & FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY)
        // your code here eg. continue;
}

FindClose(hFile)

I have an app which start up another exe file at some point and what I am looking to do is have the newly opened program close down the program that started it. Is this possilbe to do without closing both programs? Win32 please.

There are various IPC methods. The simplest would be to pass the first app's main window handle on the command line of the second app. The second can then post a WM_CLOSE message to the first.

I get this error for many different symbols and it says that they are already defined in func.obj

func.obj is a self contained file that does define these vars, but isn't used or call be the ones that the error is generated from.

So basically I have func.cpp that defines x then I have func1.cpp and it defines x. These are local to their files why would I get this error?

Thanks for the help

Because they're global in scope, the linker detects the duplicate symbol "x".

Make them static to force internal linkage.

eg:

-- func.cpp --

static int x; // internal linkage, global to func.cpp only

-- func1.cpp --

static int x; // internal linkage, global to func1.cpp only

&Hi,
How can i decode dtmf signals from telephone line? TAPI doesn't meet my requirements, there're circuits that decodes dtmf signals but i want to implement it on PC with software.

TAPI is the easiest way of doing it in Windows. Is there a good reason for not using it. (Apart from poor TSPI support for your telephony device)

This old Slashdot article discussed Telephony and Linux there may be some useful links[^]

VC6 compilation problem in oleidl.h

I recently reinstalled windows and Visual Studio 6. I almost forgot how fiddly it is to install all the SDK updates and all that. Now i finally managed to get it all i think but now when i try to compile any of my projects i get the following error:

c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\oleidl.h(5059) : fatal error C1021: invalid preprocessor command 'end'

Does anyone know how to fix this Frown | :(

Btw, the SDK update program installed the Windows 2003 server SDK and i'm running Windows 2000 professional (even though i don't think this has anything to do with it cause the include file is not in the updated SDK directory).

You can probably just open up oleidl.h and replace #end with #endif, like maybe oleidl.h got corrupted somehow. Or if that solution worries you, just reinstall VC6 again.

JAXB for C++?

Anyone know of a JAXB package that spits out C++? I'm looking for an alternative to manual development of C++ classes from an XML schema.

I've found one on SourceForge but it doesn't seem to be mature. I was wondering if anyone knew of an Apache or IBM/AlphaWorks C++ implementation.

Thanks!

[DDraw] Surface creating problem

furbyhater14-Oct-03 9:36

Hi, this is my first post on the forum, my name's Florian and I'm from Switzerland (where they make the cheese Wink | ;)

Right now I'm beginning DDraw with c++ (where I'm still quite a beginner too), and I have started writing a DDraw class, a wrapper of a sort, to facilitate casual operations. One of the member functions is a function wich takes a LPDIRECTDRAWSURFACE7 as a parameter and should create a offscreen surface & point to it with the given LPDIRECTDRAWSURFACE7. But somehow it doesn't work, because when I check the pointer after having used the function, he's always invalid.
Here's the code:

<br />
// bool bKey checks for color-keying, iMemFlags controls memory<br />
// allocation (system/video memory)<br />
<br />
ENUM_RESULT CDDraw::CreateOffscreen(int iWidth, int iHeight, bool bKey, LPDIRECTDRAWSURFACE7 lpSurface, int iMemFlags)<br />
{<br />
	// clear ddsd and set size<br />
	memset(&itsDdsd,0,sizeof(itsDdsd) );<br />
	itsDdsd.dwSize = sizeof(itsDdsd);<br />
<br />
	// color-keyed surface or not<br />
	if(!bKey)<br />
		itsDdsd.dwFlags =  DDSD_CAPS | DDSD_WIDTH | DDSD_HEIGHT;<br />
<br />
	else<br />
	{<br />
		itsDdsd.dwFlags =  DDSD_CAPS | DDSD_WIDTH | DDSD_HEIGHT | DDSD_CKSRCBLT;<br />
<br />
		// set the defined color key<br />
		itsDdsd.ddckCKSrcBlt.dwColorSpaceLowValue  = itsTransColor;<br />
		itsDdsd.ddckCKSrcBlt.dwColorSpaceHighValue = itsTransColor;<br />
	}<br />
<br />
	itsDdsd.dwWidth		= iWidth;<br />
	itsDdsd.dwHeight	= iHeight;<br />
<br />
	itsDdsd.ddsCaps.dwCaps = DDSCAPS_OFFSCREENPLAIN | iMemFlags;<br />
<br />
	// destroy previous surface, if valid<br />
	if(lpSurface)<br />
	{<br />
		lpSurface->Release();<br />
		lpSurface = NULL;<br />
	}<br />
<br />
        // itsLpDD points to a valid DD object<br />
	if(FAILED(itsLpDD->CreateSurface(&itsDdsd, &lpSurface, NULL) ) )<br />
	{<br />
		// error<br />
		return(VID_ERR_CREATEOFFSCREEN);<br />
	}<br />
<br />
	return(OK);<br />
}<br />

All the "its*" variables are class variables (of CDDraw), and I try to create the offscreen surface in another class, CMain, wich contains an instance of CDDraw ("itsVideo"), and a LP to a DD surface, "itsSprite". What I try to do looks like this:

<br />
// Set the color key<br />
  itsVideo.SetColorKey(255,0,255);<br />
<br />
  // Create the sprite surface<br />
  if ( (itsResult = itsVideo.CreateOffscreen( <br />
                             64,64,true,itsLpSprite) ) != OK)<br />
  { <br />
	// error<br />
    itsError.ShowMessage(itsWin.GetHwnd(), itsResult);<br />
  }<br />
<br />
  // check if valid surface has been created<br />
  if(!itsLpSprite)<br />
  { <br />
	// error<br />
    itsError.ShowMessage(itsWin.GetHwnd(), itsResult);<br />
  }<br />

And each time, I get an invalid surface...
Any advice/criticism (I'm sure there's alot to critic Wink | ;)
