Re: newbie MDI Question Roger Allen21-Jan-02 3:43 Roger Allen 21-Jan-02 3:43  In the InitInstance of your app, you can make a call on the document template that you registered to create a new empty document. Do this right at the end on of the InitInstance procedure: pDocTemplate->OpenDocumentFile(NULL) ; Roger Allen Sonork 100.10016 If I'm not breathing, I'm either dead or holding my breath. Re: newbie MDI Question RobJones21-Jan-02 4:58 RobJones 21-Jan-02 4:58  Thanks! I figured it would be easy. how can i get CPU's serial number? 21-Jan-02 2:22 21-Jan-02 2:22  I think the serial number is in bios. how can i get it? is it hard because i'm just a beginner. Edit question Stan the man21-Jan-02 2:03 Stan the man 21-Jan-02 2:03  I am trying to develop an edit box that can take input and whne you push "return" it will automatically send the text as ... to the View. Now, I would like to be able to use somethinmg similar to Updatedata to do this but just for this EDIT box. But I want a simple way to do this so that I don't have to post a message specific for this (and every other edit box) and then in the View ready each via a call to GetDlgItem etc. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. System Memory Management?? Don Miguel21-Jan-02 1:54 Don Miguel 21-Jan-02 1:54  Hello, Does anybody know how to check System Memory from my application, and if it is below some limit, warn the user? To be more clear: I implement a HTTP server, using threads for handling clients requests. Probably my code is not so good, having some memory leaks (?), but, during a time, process couldn't allocate enough memory, and I want to be able to check this, and warning. What kind of memory I shall take care? Is possible to handle this situation? Many thanks, Mihai Re: System Memory Management?? Jon Hulatt21-Jan-02 1:59 Jon Hulatt 21-Jan-02 1:59  surely it'd be better to fix the memory leaks? i for one wouldn't be all that impressed if i bought some software and it popped up a message saying "sorry, i lost a whole lot of your memory. your system is now running like a dog. please go buy more, so i can consume that too" Sorry to dissapoint you all with my lack of a witty or poignant signature. Re: System Memory Management?? Don Miguel21-Jan-02 2:33 Don Miguel 21-Jan-02 2:33  You are absolutely right, but let say, we will have no more memory leaks, and the server should receive an increased ammount of traffic: should't be nice to set the server to send an allert to webmaster, warning that he need a better machine?

I face the folowing problem: I develop an application and when user install it, the setup program has to change programatically the Internet Explorer Browser settings. Can anyone point me in a direction??? I have no ideea, where to start. Are the settings stored in registers? Or is another way?? (More specifically: I want to change the settings of using a proxy). And if is possible, the same question for Netscape Navigator. Many thanks, Mihai Re: Programatically set Internet Explorer RobJones21-Jan-02 3:04 RobJones 21-Jan-02 3:04  I believe the proxy settings are stored in the registry. A while back I helped create a IE package at work and I am pretty sure all the proxy settings are stored in the registry. Sorry I can't be any more specific.. I'll see if I can dig something up and post it.. Rob Re: Programatically set Internet Explorer Joaquín M López Muñoz21-Jan-02 3:08 Joaquín M López Muñoz 21-Jan-02 3:08  WinInet function InternetSetOption is your starting point. As for Netscape, I'm afraid it is no simple task, you have to edit a file named prefs.js but the whole issue is rather messy. Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo Re: Programatically set Internet Explorer Don Miguel21-Jan-02 7:16 Don Miguel 21-Jan-02 7:16  Thanks for good point you told me, regarding Netscape prefs.js. For Explorer, I will use the registry key, as I was pointed by another answer. Regards, Mihai Re: Programatically set Internet Explorer Joaquín M López Muñoz21-Jan-02 7:23 Joaquín M López Muñoz 21-Jan-02 7:23  For Explorer, I will use the registry key, as I was pointed by another answer. It is up to you which method you choose to use, but IMHO resorting to InternetSetOption increases your chances that your app will work with upcoming versions of IE. Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo Re: Programatically set Internet Explorer Don Miguel21-Jan-02 21:43 Don Miguel 21-Jan-02 21:43  You are absolutely right, I don't thinked to future. Mihai Re: Programatically set Internet Explorer Not Active21-Jan-02 4:37 Not Active 21-Jan-02 4:37  Generally it is not a good idea to have your app's setup modify user settings. I would be very peeved to find my browser settings tweaked by a setup program without being notified and given the opportunity to cancel. You can modify Netscape settings by removing it and installing IE. Re: Programatically set Internet Explorer 21-Jan-02 5:27 21-Jan-02 5:27  As already said, it better to not change the IE settings without asking agreement from the user! Anyway if u still need to do that, it is in the registry under the key: HK_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings and the values to change is : ProxyServer ( xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:port ) If u need anything else post it! Papa Re: Programatically set Internet Explorer Don Miguel21-Jan-02 7:13 Don Miguel 21-Jan-02 7:13  Thanks a lot for pointing me in the right direction! You are absolutely true, I found the setting right where you point me. And as you say, the user will be prompted about changes. Best regards, Mihai MSHTML in app. Is it legal? Jon Newman21-Jan-02 1:30 Jon Newman 21-Jan-02 1:30  Am I allowed to distribute an app that uses Microsofts MSHTML or CHtmlView without contacting MS for pemission. I have seen some apps with this in their about box. "Microsoft Internet Explorer components under licence from Microsoft" .NET or not .NET? MFC is the question...... Re: MSHTML in app. Is it legal? Mike Eriksson24-Jan-02 1:47 Mike Eriksson 24-Jan-02 1:47  Hello! According to Redistributing Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 Applications Redistributing Web Applications If your application uses the MFC classes implementing the WebBrowser control (for example, CHtmlView or CHtmlEditView), Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or later must at least be minimally installed on the target computer. So this means that the user has to install IE4 or later to use your product, but since IE is "free" ... // Mike Two question about window's timer?? hemouse21-Jan-02 1:28 hemouse 21-Jan-02 1:28  Two question: 1. My program must monite the communication port in real-time mode,and display the trend-line in the screen,but when i do another long task,such as copy a big file to the floppy disk, It seem that the program's interface can't updated until this long task has finished, what shoud I do in such case? 2. when I drag another application's window, It seem that the WM_TIMER message only occured after I release the mouse-button,but I don't want this ,what do I do in such case? Thanks a lot! Re: Two question about window's timer?? Ravi Bhavnani21-Jan-02 1:45 Ravi Bhavnani 21-Jan-02 1:45  hemouse wrote: the program's interface can't updated until this long task has finished, what shoud I do in such case? You should create a thread to perform time consuming tasks (such as the file copy) in the background. Alternatively, you can perform the file copy in small chunks, between which you should flush the Windows message queue. The separate thread is the preferred way. hemouse wrote: when I drag another application's window, It seem that the WM_TIMER message only occured after I release the mouse-button WM_TIMER messages are still being sent as you perform the drag. However, Windows will handle higher priority messages first (eg: WM_MOUSEMOVE). Eventually, all the WM_TIMER messages will be handled as a single one. You need to restructure your logic to account for this. /ravi "There is always one more bug..." http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com Re: Two question about window's timer?? hemouse21-Jan-02 23:45 hemouse 21-Jan-02 23:45  about first question: perhaps you have misunderstood my meaning. I didn't copy the big file in my application.Instead, I switched to the window's explore to do this task, so my application can't handle something(such as update the interface in real-time , send a signal to the comport's DTR when I received some special bytes from the comport),and these only can do after the file's copying is ended. About question 2: Can you give me some good advices ? Have a nice day! No money is a terrible thing! Re: Two question about window's timer?? Joao Vaz21-Jan-02 2:33 Joao Vaz 21-Jan-02 2:33  Hi, If you must monitor the communication port in real-time mode, do not use WM_TIMER ! Use waitable timers(check the api SetWaitableTimer) or more precise than this multimedia timers, do a check for this on MSDN. Anyway WM_TIMER is meant to use in user mode gui applications , not on your type of project. I've done this kind of development, and WM_TIMER doesn't work well, it have lower priority than waitable timers and multimedia timers(more precise) Cheers, Joao Vaz Re: Two question about window's timer?? 21-Jan-02 2:58 21-Jan-02 2:58  I'm developing sth. similar: Data from Serial is displayed in a diagram. I have a workerthread polling data from serial and adding it to a shreadsave queue. a GDI-thread takes data from the queue and draws a diagramm in the Client area.

As I posted, I suggest, updating not via timer, but polling data from a queue in another thread. Maybe it helps if you read my code, I have troubles with painting, so we could exchange our projs. But only if you sware not to laugh about me and my coding "style" ! Forget the email I sent yesterday, I'm on track about your question again!
