Does the dialog have a minimise button? If it doesn't, you can't minimise it.

Hello...
I need to run an external program, suspend at some offset, retrieve register values(like ebx) and continue running external app.
That is the problem 
How do run-time patchers work?
P.S.: Please reply to ths@smtp.ru
Thanks...

Hi Guys,
I'm sure this is a very easy question, but i'm damned if i can find the answer. I've just started using VS.NET instead of VC6- but still for unmanaged, MFC development.
In VC6, I could very simply use classwizard to create an override of CDialog::OnInitDialog, and have VC6 generate a stub function for me (which called the base class implementation).
How do you do this is Visual C++ .NET ? Surely there must be a way.
Thanks
Jon

In the class view select the appropriate class that you want to add the handler for. In the properties window, click on the overrides button (little green boxy looking icon). Scroll down to onInitDialog, click in the right hand column, click on the drop down box, select on '<<add>> OnInitDialog', the code should have been added.
You add WM_* event handlers in the same way, except you click on the messages button first.

Wow, thankyou. Bizarrely, i'd not noticed the Overrides and Messages buttons!. I expected there to be either a mechanism for overrides on the Add Method dialog, or maybe something on the context menu you get when right clicking a method in the base class. But no.
Thanks

Hi,
Is there a way of sending character keys to other apps (eg Notepad)?
Currently I can get the hwnd for the notepad window, and I can close it down by do ::PostMessage (hwnd, WM_QUIT, 0, 0). Thus I know I have the correct hwnd. However when I send WM_CHAR no characters appear. Any ideas?
Also, is it possible to post keys that correspond with menu items (eg 'ALT-F' (for file) then 'S' (for save))?
cheers,
Rich

Hi,
To send file messages use this code:
#define NOTEPAD_FILE_NEW 9
#define NOTEPAD_FILE_OPEN 10
#define NOTEPAD_FILE_SAVE 1
#define NOTEPAD_FILE_SAVEAS 2
::PostMessage(hwnd,WM_COMMAND,NOTEPAD_FILE_OPEN);
To send key message use:
::PostMessage(hwnd,WM_KEYDOWN, 'm', 0);

I just encountered this "this" in a sample code. Can anyone explain what it means?.
_param->_this = this;
Is the "this" an operator?
Thanks.

The this pointer refers to the object in which it is invoked.

this is the current object instance.
you can do stuff like that...
class CClass
{
int i;
void Method();
}
void CClass::Method()
{
this->i = 1;
i = 1;
}
or if you you want to pass yourself to another class or method :
...
CPaintDC dc(this);
...

"this" is introduced so the compiler could make the difference between members of the class and members of another object.
eg. if you would do this:
<br />
public void SetSomeInt(int input){<br />
input = input;<br />
}<br />
then the compiler probably would complain. which one is the parameter and which one is the variable of the class?
if you do this:
<br />
public void SetSomeInt(int input){<br />
this->input = input;<br />
}<br />
it will probably work.
It's just a pointer to the Object itself.

I would advise that you *DO NOT* use the same naming convention for local function variables and member variables. It can, and will, always lead to confusion and mistakes.

Quite true.
Just to have no misunderstandings : "I do not do that" , but the example just explains nicely what 'this' means.

you've been having many good answers, so i won't add more about the this pointer you're asking for.
i'd just like to tell you that this is an important part of the C++ language, and you'd so better get a reference of the language to learn about it...
there are many books on the subject, and also the MSDN treats about it.

If I use GetSysColour to get a system RGB value, then create a brush using that value and then draw a rectangle, the colour of the rectangle is different?
I'm puzzled by this, under 2000 you can see this all over the place, i.e menu bars. If you get the system colour then you get back the value C3C3C3, if you paint to the screen with this colour you get C6C3C3, you can verify this by reading back the pixel.
I've only noticed this because I'm implementing a VS.NET style gui and I couldn't figure out the luminance values, once I'd realised that the colours are actually different to what you request it all fell into place.

Hi,
i'm using MS Visual C++ .Net and i have a problem with odbc and mfc. It occurs sometimes while running the release application *.exe - but never(!!) while running the programm under Visual in debug mode (no compiling error).
An "unhandled win32 exception" is thrown.
Debugging the *.exe shows line 624 in dbrfx.cpp, (function: void RFX_Text(...)). A message like: "cannot read in memory" comes up.
The exception is thrown while some database actions. I first do a select in table... (by CRecordset) and then i'm trying to do an update in the same table (also by CRecordset). RFX_Text is updated and sometimes: *pow*.
Does anyone have some helpful idea? I tried to do my update by CDatabase::ExecuteCommand(...) but everything is the
same...
Thanx
Jo

Are you using more than one thread to connect to the database in your application? If so DAO is not multithreaded and will lead to many problems.
John

Thanx for you reply.
I'm not using DAO, i take odbc.
Yes, my db operation runs in a separate thread. But thats not the problem. The error also occurs, while running sequential without thread.

|

Its ok to use a database in a thread as long as you don't try to use it (CRecordset) in more than one thread.

I've also found that CRecordset is prone to memory leaks so I started using ADO instead which I find to be a lot simpler. (which is what a simple mind like mine needs)

John: Its ok to use a database in a thread as long as you don't try to use it (CRecordset) in more than one thread.
Yes, I also think so. The problem is CRecordset. But - in my case - it does not depend on using it in more than one thread. I first created a CRecordset and did some SELECT statements, after that i used CDatabase (or another CRecordset) for the insertion of records. And thats it: the first CRecordset is bound to the database and the insertion by other instances causes the error. So, now i'm using only one CRecordset and everything works well .
bdiamond: I started using ADO instead which I find to be a lot simpler
OK, that's good to know  . I'll remember that in next projects.

Hi
I have a vc++ application, which i would like to distribute as evaluation copy. The application should not run if the specified 30 days is over.
It should handle system time changes etc.
Could anyone help me out !
Thanks and regards
