Well I dont prefer to use GDI+. Customer may not have it...
It will be great if you can suggest some way using just windows API's
Anyways I would still like to know how to do using GDI+ just for my knowledge...
Thanks

Draw the text on black and then use TransparentBlt ?

In GDI+ you can set the transparency of a solid brush, which you'd then use to draw the text.

So does that mean to make a bitmap with text and black background and then do TransparentBlt on original DC?

What if string is also drawn as black?
|

Well, then that won't work, I guess. You'd have to do it somewhat more manually, as in byte by byte.

I'm not sure if this is what's causing your problem, but you might try setting the background mode to transparent before drawing your text:
int prevBkMode = SetBkMode( yourHDC, TRANSPARENT );
SetBkMode( yourHDC, prevBkMode );

I have already done that ...my problem is not with the background of text.
Background is transparent ...but the letters are not transparent...
Where the letter is drawn the text below it is hidden.

Life Cycle of Window Service is manage by ServiceMain function, it is entry point of service like main() for dos based c++ and WinMain for Win32

you can communicate via Interprocess communication because service is also a process

Control services by using the service functions such as StartService.
You can send some control commands to a service using the function ControlService.

Dear All,
I'm trying to add an ActiveX Control to the dialogs in my ActiveX Control Project. The problem is that I'm unable to drop the ActiveX control from the Controls Toolbar, to a Dialog in my project. I get the following error:
"Cannot drop ActiveX controls in Non-MFC dialogs."
Is there any other way i can do this?
Devoirs,

i want to implement non-MFC based IP address box.
i tried the following as advised by Alok when i posted the mail earliar.
i tried to implement the IP address using the following code
hWnd = CreateWindowEx(NULL,ClsName,WndName,WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, CW_USEDEFAULT, CW_USEDEFAULT, 300, 200, NULL, NULL, GetModuleHandle(NULL), NULL);
HWND IPAddrWindow = CreateWindow("SysIPAddress32",NULL, WS_VISIBLE|WS_CHILD,35,55,250,30,hWnd,NULL,NULL,NULL);
But the IP Address box is not created... only the blank base window is displayed. where am i wrong?
thanx in advance

Where is the code, if necessary, to create the four edit controls? They are child windows of the "SysIPAddress32" window.

thanx for the reply.
but i still don't know what is needed to be done. so SysIPAddress32 is not a default class like BUTTON? is it user created? that is, i have to create the IP address box?
|
|
|
|
|
anyways, i was successful in creating IP box!!
thanx
|

Ok, so what was the missing ingredient?

How about calling:
INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX iccex;
iccex.dwSize = sizeof(iccex);
iccex.dwICC = ICC_INTERNET_CLASSES;
InitCommonControlsEx(&iccex);

Error executing midl.exe.
is it a bug of microsoft platform sdk? should i update my sdk?

MIDL2020 seems to be a catch-all error, that is, it may be caused by a number of different reasons.
Maybe this[^] can be of help. Or maybe not.

Is there anyway of getting the current directory in unix? _getcwd(...) doesn't compile in unix.

Same, because the compiler complains it couldn't find direct.h which it needed for _getcdw() or getcdw()

That would lead me to believe there's a problem in your #include search path. Try #include <unistd.h> and see if that helps.
