Hello!
Is there any way to handle a right-click on a listview column?
The LVN_COLUMNCLICK message is sent when left-clicking a column, but right-click???
Dominik
_outp(0x64, 0xAD);
and
__asm mov al, 0xAD __asm out 0x64, al
do the same... but what do they do?? 
(doesn't work on NT)

You probably need to subclass the CHeaderCtrl. Have you read this excellent article[^] ?
|
|
|
|

The demo of the article you mentioned also seems only to support left-clicks... Also, the article doesn't mention how to handle right-clicks...
Any more idea?

Oh, I've found an other article (http://www.codeproject.com/listctrl/wm_rclick.asp) which describes how to handle right-clicks.
Thanks for your answer

Wow... much easier than subclassing indeed...

NM_RCLICK notification from header control will do.
Note that it's beeing sent to the listview (parent of the header window), not the listview's parent

How is it possible to send the combination of the keys to an application?
I tried using SendMessage, but no matter what i did - it always send only F1, without the CTRL being pressed.
i also tried to send KEY_DOWN of CTRL and then KEY_DOWN for F1, but it didn't work.
Is there anywhere an example that makes it work?
Thanks.

Try setting the lParam arg in the WM_KEYDOWN message. That lets you specify whether any auxiliary keys like Ctrl/Shift/etc are pressed.

As i understand from MSDN, the lparam indicates the type of key - not with which key it is being pressed.
Anyway, this is not working.

Hi
i need to create a pointer which will have to be global since it will be accessed in many places in my application.
Can somehow please help since i do not know where to place the declaration of the pointer.
Thanks

BAD IDEA!!!
I suggest you write a pointer manager type class and access it through there, otherwise you will have to continually check the status and validity of the pointer every time before you use it. Also, if you are accessing it via multiple threads, you will have to make sure you lock and unlock it before each access. A small manager class with a Get() and Set() fcn will take care of that for you. Then wherever you need the pointer, just #include your manager header.
Also having bald pointers floating around in "global" space is just plain immoral and causes needless coupling and makes for difficult maintenance.

OK I suspect you have read Nitron's comment which is valid.
Now if you really want to do this, you have many options
a) Put your pointer in CWinApp if you use MFC
And then everywhere you need it do somehting like this
<br />
CMyApp * pApp = (CMyApp *) AfxGetApp();<br />
void * pMyPointer = pApp->GetPointer();<br />
b) Otherways
Instanciate your pointer in only one c++ file after the #include for instance
void * gpMyPointer;
Then declare your pointer into a .h file this way:
extern void * gpMyPointer;
And include this h file wherever you need it

If you have a MFC application, a member variable of the application class is probably the best way. Every part of your app can access it as a member of the theApp-object.

In one source (your main maybe)
CMyDataTypeWhatever *g_pData = (initialization stuff?);
In all other sources
extern CMyDataTypeWhatever *g_pData;
HOWEVER, I must reiterate what others have said. Even though unmanaged global variables can be perfectly safe, if you don't know how to even declare a global variable, I doubt you have an understanding of the pitfalls.

Thank you guys. It really helps!!

The safe solution is use a global handle allocated with GlobalAlloc when the app starts. When you need to read or write to the global, lock it with GlobalLock and GlobalUnlock. It prevents you from simultaneous writing, which is the main pitfall of globals in multithreaded apps.

When I delete a pointer, p, should I do:
A:
p = NULL;
delete p;
or
B:
delete p;
p = NULL;

I was thinkin' B coz if I set p = NULL first, delete will try to delete a *p from NULL, but the *p @ &p will still be there...

Right.
With the assignment of a new value to your pointer, you are throwing the old value away. And as this value was your only means to access (and access includes delete), you now have a memory leak.

Hi folks,
I have the following problem. Window B must be child w/ respect to Window A. Window A and Window B are on different threads (by the way, A is running on the main process thread). Is it possible to make window B be child of window A in such a sitiuation? if not, how to simulate the correct behaviour, for example being notified of the messages window A receive, and so behave accordingly?
Thanx a lot. You always brighten me

Hello people,
I am a novice at MFC and I am stumped by a problem. What I have on the screen are few items and I have the ability to select multiple ones. The multiple items are shown by a tracking rectangle border. This mechanism is handled in OnLButtonDown() and LButtonUp() and OnMouseMove() event. My problem is when i just left click anywhere on the screen I want the selected items to be deselected ( this functionality works) However I have to make a call to UpdateWindow() and that causes the entire screen to be redrawn giving me screen flicker . Is there anyway I can only redraw part of the client area ? Sorry for thsi wordy email. I would really appreciate any help.
Thanks
