I spent a week at Microsoft HQ a few years back, talking with some folks in the development and research departments. Out of all that was talked about, what I remember most was what was said about Microsoft's product output. It was said that 90% of the projects presented to Microsoft are terminated very early on (i.e., they only bother creating 10% of all the ideas they receive). Some of them are scraped at the concept stage while others might make it to the early development stage. When asked why, they responded that it costs very little money to determine if a product is worthwhile or not, whereas once a product goes into development, the costs start going up quickly. They would rather spend a few million up front shooting holes in a concept rather than 10 times that later on supporting a product that was not well received. I said all that to say, you'd have to present Microsoft with a very solid case if you wanted them to release it. They already have an initiative in place that pays a reward if certain virus-writers are caught, so the desire to thwart spammers can't be too far off.

Yes, too pruve the MS that the project is woth it you just have to have some expiriense in top level presentations, or wight phone numbers 
My intend to make people afraid of sanding SPAM because FBI can go after them....
Also as I alredy mentioned I can get large companies to cooperate, so I just need people who just want to do it, like for idea and not for money
(Well, yes i can say that because I have a lot of free time and...)

Hi,
I'm new at C++, and am taking over a Visual C++/MFC app. My first assignment involves parsing a data file and creating a graph. Once created i need to interact with the graphdata - for calibration/zoom/etc.
I was wondering where i could find resources on graphing in VC++.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Mike

I am using MFC with Visual Studio 2003. Is there a way to retrieve all of the written data off of a CD, and save it as a file? I don't know weather or not copy protection is going to be an issue, and I am assuming that this is not going to be an easy thing to do, so any help at all is appreciated

I am trying to run a Dialog based application on different machines(desktop and a laptop) , both having different display settings . I develop in the Desktop and when i run this app on the laptop I am unable to display all components . How do I make my Dialog adjust to this ? I need to do this both for the main Dialog and all the subcomponents too . Please help
|

If you are comfortable with C++ coding, you could look for the example (CResizingDialog, CResizeableDialog ?) in Dialog controls in CodeProject. There is an example that handles resizing both the "container dialog" and the proper handeling of the controls within the dialog.
Best of luck!

Im Trying to transfer a 2 color bitmap image from a camera through the parallel port and display this image pixel by pixel to the screen.
is there a way other than bitblt to map the pixel directly to the window everytime i recieve it. this way it will be transfered directly until the whole frame is complete and i see the image developing slowly.
thank you very much for your help

Have you tried SetPixel()?
onwards and upwards...
|
|
|
|

SetPixel is as slow as anything - what you need is for the image you put up to be a DIBSEction ( there's a nice DIBSection wrapper here on CP ), so that you can set the pixel values directly.

I have a pool of threads and I need to know if all the threads are suspended so that the pool itself does not cause a deadlock condition. I need to know if there is an easy and fast way to tell if a thread is suspended.

You could have each thread keep track of it's state by having the threads write a blocked marker to a global area just prior to calling a blocking function, and then write a running marker after the blocking call completes.
And if you are using real OVERLAPPED structures, an idea from Platform SDK:
HasOverlappedIoCompleted
The HasOverlappedIoCompleted macro provides a high performance test operation that can be used to poll for the completion of an outstanding I/O operation.
Bottom line, there is not a GetThreadState() WINAPI that I know of or can find.

In my code this would be to much work because any one of 100+ functions may block... Although I am not throwing this idea away yet.

No, only in a few of the operations.

I could call SuspendThread then ResumeThread to get the info I need but that seems wasteful. A second idea is to use GetThreadTimes to determine if any work has been done since the last time I checked this again seems wasteful...
Thanks for your help,

Hi,
Is there anyway to tell the difference between the user selects a menu item other than just browse through the menu items without click?
I tried to capture the WM_MENUSELECT message but this message always got sent in both of these situations. That is this message is sent when the user browse from one item to another, and also when user click to select an item.
Is there any message other than WM_COMMAND that i can capture when the user actually clicks on the menu item.
What i want is to tell the difference between a browse and a click inside the OnMenuSelect() function.
Regards

I'm working on Access Database with VC++ 6.0 as frontend using ODBC programming...Functions like SQLBindParameter,SQLExecute....Though the data is correctly saved in the Database,I got troubled while retrieving fields of Date/Time and Integer..Other fields are being retrieved properly..I'm using following snippet of code to retrieve Date
sr = SQLBindCol(hstmt,6,SQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP,date,sizeof(date),&ld);<br />
if(sr != SQL_SUCCESS && sr != SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO)<br />
{<br />
displayError(sr, "Error in binding 6");<br />
}<br />
The variable date is CTime date[11].The value comes out weird 
Can somebody please give me some suggestions?
Thanks

This function has been working great for about 8 years now...
SYSTEMTIME *DBStatement::GetDate(int iColumnNum, SYSTEMTIME *spDateTime )
{
short iStatus = -1;
if (!spDateTime)
spDateTime = &m_sDateTime;
memset(spDateTime,0,sizeof(SYSTEMTIME));
if (m_hStmtHdl)
{
ResetError();
SQL_TIMESTAMP_STRUCT sTS;
long lColSize = 0;
iStatus = ::SQLGetData(m_hStmtHdl,iColumnNum,SQL_C_TIMESTAMP,&sTS,sizeof(SQL_TIMESTAMP_STRUCT),&lColSize);
if (iStatus == SQL_SUCCESS || iStatus == SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO)
{
if (iStatus == SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO)
iStatus = SQL_SUCCESS;
SetNullValue(lColSize == SQL_NULL_DATA);
if (lColSize != SQL_NULL_DATA)
{
spDateTime->wYear = sTS.year;
spDateTime->wMonth = sTS.month;
spDateTime->wDay = sTS.day;
spDateTime->wHour = sTS.hour;
spDateTime->wMinute = sTS.minute;
spDateTime->wSecond = sTS.second;
}
}
else
UpdateDBError();
}
else
NoActiveStatement();
return spDateTime;
}
onwards and upwards...

Hey that was really nice of u too help.Can u tell me what is m_sDateTime...That will be of real help..
Thanks
|

It is a class member that allows you to get a pointer to a SYSTEMTIME struct without having to pass one in. This provides some flexibility in that you can pass a param to be filled in, or have the class return a pointer to a struct without passing a param.

Hey thanks for all the help, I worked out an easier way to do it...Just struck it today..
DATE_STRUCT date;
sr = SQLBindCol(hstmt,1,SQL_C_TYPE_DATE,&date,sizeof(SQL_DATE_STRUCT),&ld);
if(sr != SQL_SUCCESS && sr != SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO)
{
displayError(sr, "Error in binding 1");
}
The structure is exactly what the SQL query wants and works perfectly...
Thanks for everythng once again

Hi, pavneet!
I'm trying to go the other way: getting system time from a client PC and sending it to an SQL Server database.
Here's a code snippet. The table column OPENDATE is type datetime and I'm binding it to a variable in my app:
time_t now;<br />
struct tm *localNow;<br />
TIMESTAMP_STRUCT tsOpenDate;<br />
char* szStmt = "INSERT INTO ORDERS (ORDERID, CUSTID, OPENDATE, SALESPERSON, STATUS) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?)";<br />
<br />
SQLDescribeParam(hstmt, 3, &DataType, &ParamSize, &DecimalDigits, &Nullable);<br />
SQLBindParameter(hstmt, 3, SQL_PARAM_INPUT, SQL_C_TYPE_TIMESTAMP, SQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP, ParamSize, DecimalDigits, &tsOpenDate, 0, &cbOpenDate); <br />
<br />
time (&now);<br />
localNow = localtime (&now);<br />
<br />
tsOpenDate.year = localNow->tm_year;<br />
tsOpenDate.month = localNow->tm_mon;<br />
tsOpenDate.day = localNow->tm_mday;<br />
tsOpenDate.hour = localNow->tm_hour;<br />
tsOpenDate.minute = localNow->tm_min;<br />
tsOpenDate.second = localNow->tm_sec;<br />
tsOpenDate.fraction = 0;
The problem is that the values in the localNow structure are offsets from a '0' date (I think it's 1.1.1900), whereas the data table wants a real calendar date. Thus, the SQLExecute() call fails.
I know I can use the ASCII time conversion functions to get strings for all the datetime parts (strftime), and then convert those to integers (atoi), but there must be an easier way!!!
'til next we type...
HAVE FUN!! -- Jesse

hi jesse,
Actually its easier to add the date as CString's rather then the hard way out.
Ctime time;<br />
CString m_appdate;<br />
time = time.GetCurrentTime();<br />
m_appdate = time.Format("%d-%m-%y");<br />
const char *appdate = (LPCTSTR)m_appdate;<br />
SQLINTEGER cappdate = SQL_NTS;<br />
<br />
<br />
sr = SQLBindParameter(hstmt,6,SQL_PARAM_INPUT,<br />
SQL_C_TCHAR,SQL_C_TCHAR,10,0,<br />
(void *)appdate,sizeof(appdate),&cappdate);<br />
if(sr != SQL_SUCCESS && sr != SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO)<br />
{<br />
displayError(sr,"Error in Binding 6");<br />
}
I think that will help u out......
